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.

In the Search Infrastructure team, we aim to create and maintain a flexible, intuitive, scalable, and reliable platform that empowers Search developers to efficiently iterate and deliver rich user experiences.

We support Search UI infrastructure, enabling Search frontend developers to build and launch new functionality both within our current system as well as the next-generation system we are building. A number of popular and high-traffic Google Search features are using our libraries and frameworks already. We are currently working to redefine the Search UI serving platform on a new architecture, including supporting more AI-driven experiences.

In Google Search, we're reimagining what it means to search for information – any way and anywhere. To do that, we need to solve complex engineering challenges and expand our infrastructure, while maintaining a universally accessible and useful experience that people around the world rely on. In joining the Search team, you'll have an opportunity to make an impact on billions of people globally.
