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.

In this role, you will be responsible for driving the long-term engineering strategy for enabling format optimizations, new experiences, incorporating organizational business priorities and technological shifts, such as new AI capabilities.

You will act as a de facto authority on major systems and drive the engineering strategy for a critical technical area of great importance to YouTube Ads. Operating with excellent judgment and minimal oversight, you will uncover and address ambiguous, complex, and large-scale technical problems. Your role involves thinking strategically over long time horizons, establishing consensus across divergent teams, and driving technical and process improvements across an organization of over 100+ engineers. You will need to take data driven approaches along with focusing on making our systems scalable, safer, more reliable, and highly robust.

Google Ads is helping power the open internet with the best technology that connects and creates value for people, publishers, advertisers, and Google. We're made up of multiple teams, building Google's Advertising products including search, display, shopping, travel and video advertising, as well as analytics. Our teams create trusted experiences between people and businesses with useful ads. We help grow businesses of all sizes from small businesses, to large brands, to YouTube creators, with effective advertiser tools that deliver measurable results. We also enable Google to engage with customers at scale.

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

US: $207000 - $301000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits

Responsibilities

• Identify system hotspots to improve the organization"s technical health, ensuring the calculated investments are made to remove widely-felt barriers to productivity/feature throughput.
• Invest in growing the next generation of technical leaders through direct coaching and scalable mentorship initiatives.
• Work cross-functionally to ensure features are built consistently across different surfaces working closely with other teams, quality, client infrastructure teams while balancing specific platform constraints to make decisions that are best for the business overall.
