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.
We're on the front lines, defending Google and Alphabet against highly sophisticated adversaries. Our security team is relentlessly focused on keeping our kernels patched and secure, constantly working to uncover new attack vectors and bugs through advanced fuzzing techniques and other hardening techniques. We also harden the isolation boundaries that protect our critical compute workloads.

In this role, you'll build cutting-edge Linux security features that not only protect Google and Alphabet, but also contribute to a more secure Linux ecosystem for the entire world. We collaborate closely with the Kernel Vulnerability Reward Program and other Google security engineering teams, always evaluating the evolving threat landscape to keep Linux safe for everyone.
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.

Responsibilities

  • Build automated processes for handling and patching security bugs.
  • Engage with the open source community to build features for hardening the kernel and eliminate classes of bugs (e.g. Address Space Isolation for hardware/CPU side channels).
  • Actively find new bugs by continuous fuzzing and static analysis.
  • Develop and deploy new hardening features.
  • Help with making security decisions, reviewing new hardware and OS features for security flaws.
