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 Core Engineering Education team will transform how Googlers build by embedding AI into our curriculum and delivering training directly into work. We’ll lean on the strong collaboration with hero early adopters to upskill all our talent for Google’s next era of innovation.
In this role, you will execute technical tasks to develop specialized AI agents and next-generation UI components that facilitate seamless human-agent interaction and effective in-the-flow learning. Working closely with other team members, you will deliver high-quality, testable code across full-stack surfaces that power the productivity of Google's Software Engineers. This is a unique opportunity to expand your expertise while helping transition Google's work paradigm from manual task execution to agentic orchestration.
The Core team builds the technical foundation behind Google’s flagship products. We are owners and advocates for the underlying design elements, developer platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Google. These are the essential building blocks for excellent, safe, and coherent experiences for our users and drive the pace of innovation for every developer. We look across Google’s products to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique opportunity to impact important technical decisions across the company.
