About the job
Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search.

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.
Digital Wellbeing’s mission is to empower everyone to build intentional, healthy relationships with technology.

Finding balance and staying present in daily life has become one of the defining consumer needs of our time.
