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.

With your technical expertise you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.

We are looking for a Software Engineer (SWE) to help us accelerate the growth of the JAX/XLA/TPU based external ecosystem and improving the usability of JAX for TPUs, enabling wider ecosystem of third-party libraries and tools.

JAX depends on XLA for its Machine Learning (ML) hardware acceleration needs. You will collaborate with the JAX third-party (3P) team whose focus is on the top of the stack (user-facing features in JAX itself) to ensure that user-facing features work end-to-end. You will work with TPU SWEs in the ML Compiler/Runtime organisation to change lower in the compiler stack.

Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
