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.

With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally.

In this role, you will utilize new technologies such as Matter , Edge computing, and on-device ML to bring our smart home ecosystem into the next generation. You’ll lead a local team to empower third-party device partners and manufacturers to integrate with our smart home platform.

The Google Nest team focuses on hardware, software, and services for the home, ranging from Nest thermostats to Nest smart displays. The Google Nest team develops, designs, and develops new technologies and hardware to make users’ homes more helpful. Our mission is the helpful home: to create a home that cares for the people inside it and the world around it.

Responsibilities

• Develop and scale Google Home Platform on-device infrastructure and framework, including Matter/Cloud interactions, etc.
• Develop ambitious roadmaps, scope project requirements, and plan work schedules for the team.
• Guide all technical aspects of development, including design, implementation, testing, and integration.
• Drive project execution end-to-end, identify risks, and form contingency plans.
• Build professional relationships with cross-team/cross-functional partners.
