  • 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.

    NodeOS is the operating system that runs Google. Based on Open Source linux, the OS has been customized to meet the scale, transparency, and performance we need to run all of Google's compute.

    In this role, you will be responsible for critical parts of the operating system running all services at Google. You will work with both upstream Linux packages, as well as home-brew Google solutions. Your place in the core infrastructure team allows your work to have a tremendous impact on the entire company and make Google engineers operational toil much smaller.

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.
