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.

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.

Platforms Storage teams design and build solutions for all of Google's services, including Gemini AI training data, YouTube videos, Web Search, Google Cloud virtual machines, Google Photos, and Android Play Store, all ultimately reside securely on storage devices and servers built by Platforms Storage teams.

In this role, you will lead Software Engineering teams working with cross-functional and technology partners to develop storage solutions that are impactful across Google's services. You will also develop and maintain the storage solutions with great performance and huge capacity to streamline the operational workflows in the data centers for better efficiency.
