Software Development Manager, Cloud Service Orchestration

Google · Waterloo, ON, Canada

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.

As an Software Development Manager for Service Orchestration, you will lead the team responsible for the fundamental fabric that connects and invokes services across Google Cloud. You will oversee a product suite—including Eventarc, Cloud Workflows, Cloud Tasks, and Cloud Scheduler—enabling 1P, 2P, and 3P developers to build reliable, massive-scale applications that leverage Google, custom, and third-party services. You will own the strategy, partnering with PM's to evolve our portfolio toward a unified, next-generation platform. You will empower your team to solve complex integration issues, drive operational excellence, and shape the future of distributed execution and resiliency.
