About the job

At Google, our philosophy is build it, break it and then rebuild it better. That thinking is at the core of how we approach testing at Google. Unlike roles with similar names at the other companies, Test Engineers at Google aren't manual testers -- you write scripts to automate testing and create tools so developers can test their own code. As a Test Engineer, you navigate Google's massive codebase, identify weak spots and constantly design better and creative ways to break software and identify potential problems. You'll have a huge impact on the quality of Google's growing suite of products and services.

You use your knowledge of testing and testability to influence better software design, promote proper engineering practice, bug prevention strategies, testability, accessibility, privacy, and other advanced quality concepts across products.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.

Responsibilities

  • Design data-driven test strategies to overcome constraints needed to achieve intended quality experiences at time and at cost.
  • Create and oversee execution of test plans/cases and drive closure of issues found.
  • Develop scalable, objective, trusted, and actionable quality signals defined through scientific methodologies.
  • Engineer solutions to drive efficiency through test automation, algorithmic validation, integration environments.
  • Partner and communicate with cross-functional counterparts across identifying gaps, recommend creative solutions to solve defined problems, and communicate the status of release activities to the relevant stakeholders.
