    Job description

    About the job

    Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Engineering Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of Engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a Software Engineering Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. 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.

    This team works on preventing abuse within the messaging ecosystem. We are responsible for keeping users safe from phishing, malware, scams, and other unwanted interactions in our messaging products. You will partner with product teams to identify potential abuse vectors ahead of new launches and establish, evaluate and maintain abuse protections.

    The Platforms and Ecosystems product area encompasses Google's various computing software platforms across environments (desktop, mobile, applications). The products provide enterprises, and ultimately end users, the ability to utilize and manage their services at scale. We build innovative and compelling software products—from apps to TVs, from laptops to phones—that have an impact on people’s lives across the world.


    Responsibilities

    • Set and communicate team priorities that support the broader organization's goals. Align strategy, processes, and decision-making across teams.
    • Set clear expectations with individuals based on their level and role and aligned to the broader organization's goals. Meet regularly with individuals to discuss performance and development and provide feedback and coaching.
    • Develop the long-term technical direction and roadmap within, and often beyond, the scope of your teams. Evolve the roadmap to meet anticipated future requirements and infrastructure needs.
    • Oversee system designs within the scope of the broader area, and review product or system development code to solve ambiguous problems.
    • Review code developed by other engineers and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., style guidelines, checking code in, accuracy, testability, and efficiency).



    Minimum qualifications:

    • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
    • 8 years of experience with software development in one or more programming languages (e.g., Python, C, C++, Java, JavaScript).
    • 5 years of experience in a technical leadership role; overseeing projects, with 3 years of experience in a people management, supervision/team leadership role.


    Preferred qualifications:

    • Master's degree or PhD in Computer Science, or a related technical field.
    • 3 years of experience working in a complex, matrixed organization.
    • Experience in scaling a system from the pilot/start-up phase to a mature product.


    Benefits: 

    • Health and Wellbeing (Medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and dependents)
    • Financial wellbeing (Competitive compensation, regular bonus and equity refresh opportunities)
    • Flexibility and time off (Paid time off, including vacation, bereavement, jury duty, sick leave, parental leave, disability, and holidays)
    • Family support and care (Fertility and growing family support, parental leave and baby bonding leave)
    • Community and personal development (Educational reimbursement)
    • Googley extras (Inspiring spaces to work, recharge, and collaborate with fellow Googlers)
