Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search.

Teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.

With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally.

In this role, you will manage a team of engineers, work closely with product managers and program managers, providing technical leadership and guidance with other engineering leads across Core Data to deliver efficient, automated, and reliable tools and infrastructure, maximizing the impact for IR.
