Our computational challenges are so big and unique we can't just buy our hardware, we've got to make it ourselves. Our Platforms Team designs and builds the hardware, software and networking technologies that power all of Google's services. As a Networking Test Engineer you make sure that our massive and growing network is operating at its peak potential. You have hands-on experience with complex networking equipment, a deep understanding of networking protocols, test design and implementation chops and a background in IP network design. It's your job to make sure Google's cutting-edge technology can perform at scale.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

• Design, develop, and execute test plans for networking features, equipment, and related systems. Contribute to the design of new networking systems.
• Design and deploy testbeds for testing networking software, topologies, and migrations. Certify software releases, new topologies, and migration plans for general use.
• Develop test automation tools, develop automated tests, manage testing priorities for a project or release (e.g., determining release-stoppers).
• Generate ideas to solve complex and open-ended problems. Work with development teams to develop test plans for devices, topologies, and migrations.
• Provide subject-matter expertise in network test engineering, including software testing methodologies. Work with cross-functional technical leaders and software engineers on system designs.
