Staff Software Engineer, Cloud Security

Google · Sunnyvale, CA, USA

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.

Regional Isolation aims to reduce the blast radius of security/control plane compromise, via any combination of logical or physical attacks, by guarding against propagation of compromise from one security region to another. Our mission is to eliminate global-by-default authorization patterns at Google, and provide controls for new authorization patterns in a centralized, safe and easy way. The team designs, develops, and deploys fundamental security infrastructure, primitives, and APIs for authenticating the physical origin of a connection. Furthermore, we provide insights and tooling to help us gauge our adoption, risks and success metrics.

Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
