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.

The Pixel Watch Audio team is responsible for the audio experience on Wear OS devices. Our work spans the entire stack, from low-level BSP integration of vendor software to the development of consumer features. In this role, you will serve as an architect for audio drivers and frameworks that support the Pixel Watch ecosystem.

We collaborate with SOC vendors to leverage system hardware for next-generation capabilities. We maintain the stability and build a footprint of the ADSP (ambient audio domain), ensuring that our devices remain responsive and efficient.
