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 own the strategy, scoping, and technical outcomes of

database solutions in GCP. Be involved in the end-to-end lifecycle - from

initial requirement gathering and architectural design to development, testing,

and long-term maintenance of database solutions for hardware products. Lead,

manage and architect streamlined structures across various database systems on

Google’s GCP environment.

Navigate challenges, make open-ended problems tractable while influencing

designs and technical excellence. Integrating AI/ML methods to solve problems

and improve productivity, such as utilizing AI for live data analytics and

employing Terraform to automate critical infrastructure.

Familiarity with component suppliers, subassembly houses and OEM/ODMs to build

data pipelines back to Google and then restructuring and organizing the data and

making it readily available is highly advantageous for driving meaningful

impact.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills,

experience, and relevant education or training.
