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.
The Production Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) team is responsible for trust across all of Google. We own creating, managing, and destroying globally useful identities on the production and corporate networks. The identities that Production PKI is also responsible for form the basis for most authentication and authorization at Google.
Production PKI maintains and evolves the services that form the root of trust in Google's production systems. This encompasses services and roles that are externally recognizable, such as Certificate Authorities and Trust Bundle Distribution. It also extends into needs that are more specific to Google scale, such as delegation of identity and Low Overhead Authentication Service (LOAS).
Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
