Google welcomes people with disabilities.

Due to the current health crisis related to COVID-19 and the escalating visa/travel restrictions in place, we’re currently unable to extend offers to anyone who cannot work from Taiwan due to lockdown visa/travel restrictions, or other restrictive measures until further notice. Consequently, we will be prioritizing candidates who can start in this location by set date as expected. We’re keeping the situation under review and would adjust our position should the restrictive measures be removed later on.

Minimum qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Experience in image/signal processing, computer vision, computational imaging, machine learning, or artificial intelligence.
• Experience in programming in C or C++.

Preferred qualifications:

• PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
• Experience with design, debugging, performance, and quality improvement of computational photography algorithms.
• Experience in SIMD, GPU, Halide, or DSP programming in mobile environments.
• Experience in color science or subjective image quality assessment.
• Expertise in computational photography algorithm, recurrent/convolutional neural network, or ISP (3A and image restoration/enhancement algorithms) development.
• Excellent communication skills.

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.

You will work on core algorithms in the Android camera platform to improve the photography and cinematography experience. This covers both improvements of the image quality and creating computational photography features. You will develop the end-to-end solution, including algorithm design, implementation, quality evaluation, performance optimization to the final deployment. You will work with software engineers, hardware engineers, researchers, and image scientists across Google to push the performance of the mobile imaging system, commercialize features, and develop the architecture for products.

Making the world’s information universally accessible and useful doesn’t stop at the desktop. The Mobile team builds tools to get you the information you need no matter where you are. Android has become the world’s most popular mobile ecosystem, powering billions of devices, from smartphones to tablets, watches to TVs and everything in between. Whether adding to the core Android experience, forging new markets for digital content, creating immersive and portable versions of our products or managing relationships with a global community of developers, the Mobile team is giving you Google on the go.
