Senior Software Engineer, Front End, Search Content Platform

About the job

Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for engineers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.

Search Content Platform (SCP) is a fundamental part of Google Search. Our mission is to understand and organize the content to deliver the best Search experiences. SCP merges structured knowledge (Google's Knowledge Graph) with web content, partner data, images, videos, and more, creating a refined, standardized, and widely accessible distributed content platform.

Our team is passionate about building great frontend and web applications to make development fast, easy, and elegant for thousands of developers in Google Search, Maps, YouTube and friends. Our solutions enable these developers to then launch multiple billions of users around the world.

With your technical expertise, you will solve tricky developer experience problems, manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables while designing, developing, testing, deploying, maintaining, and enhancing software solutions.

In Google Search, we're reimagining what it means to search for information – any way and anywhere. To do that, we need to solve complex engineering challenges and expand our infrastructure, while maintaining a universally accessible and useful experience that people around the world rely on. In joining the Search team, you'll have an opportunity to make an impact on billions of people globally.
