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.

Google Beam is a true-to-life new communication technology from Google that

allows people to feel like they’re having real face-to-face conversations, no

matter the distance. Powered by realistic state-of-the-art 3D imaging and

spatial audio and integrated with today’s leading remote video platforms, Google

Beam enables you to be immersed in the moment, together. As a part of the Google

Beam team, you'll work with incredible teammates across all major functions in a

fast-paced product-oriented environment. Your contributions will have an impact

on the future of communications with Google products. You will apply technology

to solve that really important problem that we often want to be together and we

can’t.

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

experience, and relevant education or training.
