About the job
Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Engineering 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 Software Engineering Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. 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.
With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally.
We work closely on ML network designs and are modernizing our infrastructure to address the unique needs of customized whale customer networks, large-scale ML training networks, and accelerated customer support models. On this team, expect to learn about how to scale systems to planet scale, work on agentic systems like Quicksilver, for scaling complex problem solving for a heterogeneous fleet, and understand how a long list of distributed systems work together to make Google's networks work. As a Engineering Manager, you will combine technical leadership and engineering management to oversee mission-critical cluster networks, control plane infrastructure, ML training networks, and next-generation fabric innovations.
