About the job
At Google, we put our users first. The world is always changing, so we need Product Managers who are continuously adapting and excited to work on products that affect millions of people every day.
In this role, you will work cross-functionally to guide products from conception to launch by connecting the technical and business worlds. You can break down complex problems into steps that drive product development.
One of the many reasons Google consistently brings innovative, world-changing products to market is because of the collaborative work we do in Product Management. Our team works closely with creative engineers, designers, marketers, etc. to help design and develop technologies that improve access to the world's information. We're responsible for guiding products throughout the execution cycle, focusing specifically on analyzing, positioning, packaging, promoting, and tailoring our solutions to our users.
The App and Ecosystem Trust (AET) team ensures safe, secure, and trustworthy experiences across our global app ecosystem. Mokka is the core review engine that processes every app submission, update, and runtime signal to protect billions of users from security vulnerabilities, policy violations, and malicious behavior.
As the Product Manager for Mokka in Bengaluru, you will take the lead on driving the overall strategy and tactical execution of our next-generation review infrastructure. Your core mission is to bridge advanced ML-driven detection capabilities with developer velocity, ensuring our entire ecosystem remains secure without unnecessary friction.
Responsibilities
- Define the multi-year product roadmap for Mokka, the app safety review platform, to scale under submission volume increases driven by AI-assisted code generation (vibe coding).
- Balance friction-free onboarding for legitimate developers with verification checks for high-risk or automated app factories.
- Partner closely with ML Research, Security Engineering, Policy Operations, and Developer Relations across global sites, driving alignment across vertical AET teams to ensure Mokka functions seamlessly as a unified trust platform.
- Architect automated static, dynamic, and LLM-assisted review pipelines that intercept modern security threats before apps reach production, designing defenses against emerging AI vulnerabilities, including malicious model weights, indirect prompt injection vectors, agentic permission escalation, and generative privacy leaks.
- Partner with teams to design intelligent human-in-the-loop review interfaces, leveraging generative AI assistants to speed up analyst workflows and reduce manual cognitive load.
