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.
As an engineer for these initiatives, you will transform the development of AI agents from an artisanal craft into an engineering discipline to achieve high-quality, reliability with multi-folds efficiency gains across Google. You will architect and productionize horizontal infrastructure, including generalized Knowledge Store libraries and self-reflection modules, to enable agents to learn and improve autonomously with every run. You will apply core design principles, lead deep audits of high-impact agents to extract deterministic logic from monolithic prompts into efficient, code-based workflows. You will scale automated prompt optimization and trace scanning tools to systematically eliminate waste and solve the "Gen
AI engineering gap" for teams building production-ready agents. Your work will bridge the gap between experimental prototypes and scalable production infrastructure, ensuring the entire agent ecosystem benefits from encoded best practices and high-performance solutions .Google Cloud accelerates every organization's ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google's technology, and tools that help
developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
