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.

YouTube is growing its investment in becoming creators’ home for video editing and creation, enabling mobile users around the world to express their creativity through video.

YouTube Create is a dedicated, AI-powered video editing app designed to help engaged and purposeful creators in creating, editing, enhancing and crafting their videos for publishing on YouTube and beyond. The app is a leading effort to bring more powerful and helpful creation tools to people, on their mobile devices, utilizing Google’s deep ML and Generative AI expertise to make the process of creating and editing videos easier and faster.

The YouTube Create app will be owned and developed by a fully cross-functional team based out of Bengaluru. This team will be responsible for defining the product strategy, roadmap, and execution.

At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we listen, share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process. Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.

  • Work closely with partner teams to integrate media processing, effects production, fun assets, client infrastructure, and more. 
  • Work in a combination of Flutter (for much of UX and data layer of the app) and native Android/iOS (for media and backend integrations).
  • Drive cross-organizational collaboration and ensure the strategy, direction, and decisions of multiple work streams are integrated, aligned, and positioned to support differentiation.
