About the job
Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer (SWE) goes way beyond just Search. SWE Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a SWE Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. SWE teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.
You will lead your team to shape and deliver Google products, including the software platform running and managing Google Data Centers, Google Compute Engine, Kubernetes, Google Cloud Functions, and many more. You will not only optimize your own code but make sure engineers are able to optimize theirs.
Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running.
