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 co-design with hardware (HW) engineering, develop, test, help deploy and debug the software required to make accelerators work: board and chip firmware, Linux kernel drivers, hardware design simulators, integration within Google server and cluster configuration, monitoring and massive distributed systems. We are helping develop the software (SW) that power the AI hypercomputers of the AI and Machine Learning era for the Google Data Center that underpin Google Cloud offering and all Domain Specific Computation for Google internal workloads. We work on interesting systems that push the boundaries of computation -- Google servers/networks and the latest Accelerators (TPUs, GPUs, Video Transcoders and other Accelerators).

The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide.
