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.

With your technical expertise you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.

Our mission is to enable our customers to run their most demanding workloads for technical, scientific and engineering issues on our Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This High Performance Computing (HPC) role offers supercomputer-class infrastructure (CPUs, GPUs or TPUs) that interoperates with other cloud services from storage to AI.

We offer a range of Virtual Machine (VM) families tailored for HPC use and innovative control plane constructs to build scalable systems. We enable our customers to create tailor-made HPC environments from cloud building blocks or derived from use case focused reference architectures. We help our customers navigate the integration of AI into computational workflows and workloads.
