Software Engineering Manager II, Chrome AI

Google · Mountain View, CA, USA

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 L6 Engineering Manager for Gemini in Chrome, you will lead a team of engineers dedicated to enhancing Gemini in Chrome's quality through the integration of Generative AI technologies. You will be at the forefront of productionizing advanced AI systems at Google scale, driving innovation in how AI can make the Chrome browser more helpful, reliable, and intelligent. This role requires a leader who grows at the intersection of the AI, user-centric product development, and rigorous engineering practices. You will foster a culture of excellence, balancing rapid innovation with the need for scalable, robust, and responsible AI-driven features.
