    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.

    Our team is building the future of at-scale computing by delivering a groundbreaking, on-premises AI supercomputer—the next evolution of Google's AI accelerator hardware. This is a rare opportunity to join a specialized team creating novel solutions for customers with sophisticated security and data locality requirements. You will be at the heart of building the next generation of AI hardware and the critical software that brings it to life, making a Google-scale impact on the future of AI.
    We manage complex infrastructure, integrating with Kubernetes, Temporal, and custom orchestration tools to ensure our compute nodes meet rigorous health standards. We are evolving our infrastructure toward automated node repair, self-healing frameworks, and advanced fleet-wide observability to reduce manual operational overhead and build robust platform boundaries.
