About the job

Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Engineering Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of Engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a Software Engineering Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. Teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.

With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally.

As a Software Engineering Manager, you will be responsible for Rodos, a proxy service for Google's base storage services like Colossus. You will protect the underlying storage nodes by terminating and buffering network connections from abusive clients or remote data centers. You will make more efficient use of expensive long-range fiber bandwidth. Demand for efficient access to far-away Colossus cells is growing rapidly, with much of the recent growth coming from Google's AI efforts. AI developers have to manage specialized compute capacity and training data spread across many data-centers, making them particularly interested in efficient and reliable access to Colossus across data-center boundaries.

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.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $197,000-$291,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

  • Contribute to the project by using Google's C++ development tools and serving stack, using Google SQL to analyze traffic patterns and create dashboards, and debugging and fixing production issues.
