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.

With your technical expertise you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.

It's critical that users are able to trust us when they come to Google that the information we provide is accurate and that we respect and protect the sensitive data they share with us as they use our products.

To enforce policies in Search, we operate at scale and optimize performance to keep costs down. We establish principles to apply across diverse systems, data, and processes. These principles include enforcement points for critical Search data flows, data minimization, managing assets for data governance, enforcing the principle of least privilege, reducing the severity of Public Relations (PR) incidents, and aggregating user feedback to characterize emerging risks.

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

• Design, develop, and deliver on critical areas of the Search Infrastructure and making sure it provides the level of scalability, reliability, and latency expected of Google Search.
• Work collaboratively with other Engineers, Team Leads and other cross-functional teams, and help align our platform evolution with Search's broader architectural efforts.
• Uphold and maintain a high bar for code quality and robustness of production systems.
• Lead and mentor junior engineers around you.
