Staff Software Engineer, Search Verticals

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 Staff Software Engineer in the Search Verticals team, you will power next-generation guided wholepage Search experiences by building capabilities to meet the bar for quality, freshness, and diversity of content required to deliver amazing experiences. You will partner with various product teams to integrate these quality capabilities into end user experiences for broad and exploration seeking queries, and own building out the user facing guided product experience for narrow questions and answers queries entirely.

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.

Key Responsibilities:

• Mentor and review code developed by other developers and provide feedback to ensure best practices.
• Run experiments, drive analysis, and make data-driven tradeoffs for product directions.
• Collaborate with partner engineering and cross-functional teams to develop new quality capabilities and build and launch visible features.
• Design and develop across the full spectrum to deliver end user experiences focusing on quality, infrastructure work, and front-end development.
• Drive significant sub-area(s) of the team's charter technically and strategically.

This role offers a unique opportunity to work on cutting-edge search technology and make a significant impact on how billions of users access information worldwide.
