About the job

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.

The AI Storage team within Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) builds the foundational data layer that powers next-generation machine learning and generative AI workloads at the edge and in air-gapped environments. AI models require massive throughput and ultra-low latency; our team tackles the complex challenge of delivering high-performance, massively scalable storage systems directly to customer data centers. We focus on optimizing the data pipeline to keep GPUs and accelerators fully saturated, ensuring that enterprise and public-sector customers can run advanced AI on their most sensitive data without compromising on sovereignty, security, or speed.

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.Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

Responsibilities

  • Design and develop scalable, distributed File and Object storage solutions that serve as the critical foundational backbone for complex AI/ML workloads within the GDC environment.
  • Engineer advanced solutions optimized for massive throughput, specifically enabling high-frequency model checkpointing and the ultra-low latency data access required for AI training and inference.
  • Drive technical execution with external partners (e.g., VAST Data) to seamlessly integrate industry-leading, high-performance storage hardware with Google's distributed software ecosystem.
  • Take full life-cycle responsibility for core storage services, ensuring uncompromising security, data durability, and high availability across disconnected edge and on-premises data center environments.
  • Partner closely with AI infrastructure, compute, and networking teams to architect system-wide improvements, eliminate Input/Output bottlenecks, and deliver a unified "cloud-anywhere" experience.
