Staff Software Engineer, GPU Performance, Core ML

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.

In recognition of hardware as a strength, Google’s Core Machine Learning (ML) organization is heavily invested in growing a powerhouse team of GPU experts, and we invite you to be at its vanguard! This is your opportunity to move beyond incremental improvements and architect truly transformative solutions, shaping the future of AI and accelerated computing for Google and the world.

While known for pioneering work with TPUs, GPUs are an equally vital and rapidly expanding frontier within Google's machine learning infrastructure. GPUs are indispensable to Google’s ever-evolving landscape for strategic, pragmatic, and performance-driven reasons — ensuring top performance for our ML models, adapting to ML workloads, achieving results, and influencing next-generation GPU architectures via strategic partnerships.

The ML, Systems, & Cloud AI (MSCA) organization at Google designs, implements, and manages the hardware, software, machine learning, and systems infrastructure for all Google services (Search, YouTube, etc.) and Google Cloud. Our end users are Googlers, Cloud customers and the billions of people who use Google services around the world.

We prioritize security, efficiency, and reliability across everything we do - from developing our latest TPUs to running a global network, while driving towards shaping the future of hyperscale computing. Our global impact spans software and hardware, including Google Cloud’s Vertex AI, the leading AI platform for bringing Gemini models to enterprise customers.
