About the job

How do you release updates and changes to the world's most trafficked sites without users ever noticing a glitch in service? Our Release Engineering team takes on this very challenge. As a member of the team, you work with Software Engineers to ensure our services and products seamlessly move from development through rollout and into production. This requires scripting and coding with an eye toward scalability so that big deployments can be broken down and distributed across multiple data centers. You are a excited by massively complex systems and the challenges that come from working with some of the largest computing systems in the world. From changing the look of Google Search to backend tweaks to our algorithms, we are constantly pushing updates and iterating on all of our products.

Using your leadership and technical expertise, you manage small project teams and lead the complex application releases for production and develop major improvement to tools and processes.

The Silicon Software team builds firmware, drivers, runtime, and compilers to bring our custom hardware to life. We are still a young team and are planning for rapid growth in both team size and our code base. We work cross functionally with many teams at Google, including Research, Machine Learning, Android, Chrome, and Hardware. We are working generations ahead of the market to enable groundbreaking features.

We are productive while we're at work but value work/life balance and have flexible schedules. Being tied to hardware release cycles, we do have crunch time -- however, we strive to complete our tasks within regular working hours.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people's lives better through technology.
