About the job
Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search.

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.
Our team is driving several of the most impactful infrastructure projects for Drive Frontend and Workspace. Our projects span performance, reliability, serving, and cross platform infrastructure.
