About the job

Job Description

As a Staff Software Engineer, you will power next-generation guided wholepage Search experiences by building capabilities to meet the bar for quality, freshness, and diversity of content required to deliver amazing experiences. You will partner with various product teams to integrate these quality capabilities into end user experiences for broad and exploration seeking queries, and own building out the user facing guided product experience for narrow questions and answers queries entirely. In Google Search, we're reimagining what it means to search for information – any way and anywhere. To do that, we need to solve complex engineering challenges and expand our infrastructure, while maintaining a universally accessible and useful experience that people around the world rely on. In joining the Search team, you'll have an opportunity to make an impact on billions of people globally. Responsibilities: Mentor and review code developed by other developers and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., style guidelines, checking code in, accuracy, testability, and efficiency). Run experiments, drive analysis, and make data-driven tradeoffs for product directions. Collaborate with partner engineering and cross-functional teams, as well as other partner organizations to develop new quality capabilities and build and launch visible features. Design and develop across the full spectrum to deliver end user experiences focusing on quality (e.g., signals, retrieval, ranking, AI/ML), infrastructure work (e.g., writing latency sensitive serving code, building large-scale offline pipelines), and front-end development to deliver great user experiences. Drive significant sub-area(s) of the team’s charter technically and strategically.
Must have:
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
  • 8 years of experience in software development, and with data structures/algorithms.
  • 3 years of experience in a technical leadership role overseeing projects.
  • 3 years of experience testing, maintaining, or launching software products, and 1 year of experience with software design and architecture.
Good to have:
  • Master's degree or PhD in Computer Science or related technical field.
  • Experience with Information Retrieval, Natural Language Processing, Ranking Systems, or similar.
  • Experience establishing team goals, developing roadmaps and scoping projects, and hiring junior engineers.
  • Willingness to become a technical leader manager in the future.
