Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another.

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 mission of the Advanced User Understanding Infrastructure team (within Google Search Discover) is to develop next-generation infrastructures that leverage advanced and novel Machine Learning (ML) technologies, enabling an understanding of users to deliver optimal personalization recommendations for Search Discover products.

We are dedicated to engineering reliable, efficient, and extensible systems, to support and scale technologies, empowering teams to rapidly iterate and deploy advanced ML personalization solutions.



In Google Search, we're reimagining what it means to search for information – any way and anywhere.
