Job description

from Google careers

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.

Our team is building together with the Electric Platform, the fast growing engine powering Google’s transition from reactive retrieval to proactive assistance through Information Agents, a top Knowledge and Information (K&I) priority. We are pioneering agentic intelligence within Search and AI Mode (AIM), enabling users to initiate long-running "informational journeys" that proactively keep them updated.

This project has been critical to redefine the Search stack with technologies, with significant architectural issues, delegating complex info-needs journeys that once required multiple user sessions to autonomous agents.

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.

Responsibilities

Design and implement features such as multi-thread agent architecture and browser-use capabilities.
Manage research signals, engineering, quality analysis, experimentation, evaluation methods to develop user-facing features that leverage new AI breakthroughs.
Develop support for Agentic Capabilities, including browser use, credential management for complex agent behaviors.
Address issues in delivery scalability and response quality, ensuring agents provide concise, high-utility updates without "novel-length" verbosity.

Minimum qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
5 years of experience with software development in one or more programming languages.
3 years of experience testing, maintaining, or launching software products, and 1 year of experience with software design and architecture.
