About The Job

Like Google’s own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer (SWE) goes way beyond just Search. SWE Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a SWE Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. SWE teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.

Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people’s lives better through technology.

• Contribute to the software and hardware architecture designs for Google’s future SoCs and software features.
• Build prototype/production software across the android stack including kernel, BSP, framework, and application to prove the feasibility of designs.
• Build prototype/production software for embedded software stacks running inside Google’s SoCs.
• Manage and grow a team of software engineers to build software architecture and prototyping with making direct contributions for engineering tasks in the team.
• Collaborate across organizations and teams to move the architecture design into production.
