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 this role, you will be responsible for the overall health and technical direction of the Google Classroom Web app. From simplifying code patterns, to improving user navigability, you will be committed to delivering a high quality web experience for Classroom users and developers alike.

You will develop cross-cutting features like user education workflows and intuitive and accessible navigation and focus on making the app fast and easy to work with building and maintaining reusable building blocks, establishing reusable design and data access patterns, and being stewards of overall product excellence and application health.

Learning is the ongoing quest for understanding, and we made it our mission more than 20 years ago to organize the world's information to make it universally accessible and useful. The learning landscape is changing, and the Learning and Education team's mission is to help everyone in the world learn anything in the world. We provide the information, tools, and services that help people gain knowledge, fuel curiosity, and prepare for what's next. We focus our work to add the most value for users to enable learning for school, work, and life. We believe everyone can and should have access to quality learning experiences to reach their full potential.
