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.
As a Senior Engineering Manager, you’ll lead sanitizers for Google’s server-side code, Android platform and apps, and Chrome. You’ll guide the Linux kernel fuzzing, bug detection, and hardening.
In this role, you will conduct data flow analysis to improve privacy and validate expected system behavior. You will enable new hardware features related to program analysis. Additionally, you will lead the sampling-based program analysis for production, for multiple ecosystems, and fuzz-testing for various hardware targets.
Our team has numerous customers within Google and we need to keep our tools working for them, despite the constant increase of the code base. At the same time we need to invest into new areas of program analysis, implement new tools, and drive their adoption with large portions of our work being open source.
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.
Responsibilities
Mitigate and prevent security vulnerabilities in Google’s software at scale by designing, developing, and shipping new compiler, run-time, or hardware features.
Deliver new versions of the existing dynamic analysis tools, such as ASAN or Syzkaller.
Define the strategy for new areas of program analysis, such as data flow analysis for privacy.
Conduct quarterly and annual planing.
