About The Job
Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Engineering Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of Engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. 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.
The Platforms and Ecosystems product area encompasses Google's various computing software platforms across environments (desktop, mobile, applications). The products provide enterprises, and ultimately end users, the ability to utilize and manage their services at scale. We build innovative and compelling software products—from apps to TVs, from laptops to phones—that have an impact on people’s lives across the world.
Responsibilities
- Manage a team of operating systems software engineers and graphics engineers working on Google Play's gaming platforms.
- Oversee designs and feature implementations to ensure a performant, reliable multi-platform gameplay experience to delight our users. Review code, design documents, and test plans to ensure your team's work is high quality.
- Partner with product management, program management, and UX to solve challenging problems and deliver business impact and form your own opinion on prioritization based on business impact.
- Solve challenging problems that balance technical considerations (e.g., maintainability, scalability, reliability, availability, efficiency, security) with business requirements.
- Experience industry-leading software development, deployment and production practices. Grow in your career with projects needing your expertise to grow your scope and impact.
