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.
As a Software Engineer, you will provide the infrastructure and application
programming interfaces (APIs) that enable distributed debugging and development
across Google, at a scale unmatched anywhere else. You will build the next
generation of debugging services that will transform debugging at Google and
make it easy to root cause events at large-scale, distributed systems in a
privacy-safe way. You will also build services that scale well and handle large
workloads, and will add minimum latency to clients and will be inexpensive to
operate.
The Core team builds the technical foundation behind Google’s flagship products.
We are owners and advocates for the underlying design elements, developer
platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Google. These are the
essential building blocks for excellent, safe, and coherent experiences for our
users and drive the pace of innovation for every developer. We look across
Google’s products to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and
strengthen existing systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique
opportunity to impact important technical decisions across the company.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
* Solve problems around query latency, data freshness, index correctness and
serving at scale.
* Automate and improve efficiency in operational and user support.
* Support users with system integrations and resolve client issues.
* Participate in weekly onduty rotation to address user and operational
tickets.
* Collaborate with privacy to explore options for quick access to debug data
while protecting users' data.
