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.

Search Compliance Infrastructure is in the early stages of designing and building out the next-generation architecture, with the complexity and scale that few engineers have the opportunity to address. This will require strategic planning, cross-team communication, prioritization, delivery, and launch. You will have to partner closely with other leads and engineers in Search Infrastructure, cross-functional teams across the Search Product Area and our Site Reliability Engineering organization.

In this role, you will manager a team of 5 software engineers. As a manager, you will be expected to build a diverse team, build the roadmap, and charter while developing the careers for each team member.

Google is an engineering company at heart. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to take on some of technology’s greatest challenges and make an impact on users around the world. At Google, engineers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, social to local, Google engineers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.
