About the job

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.

There has been an increasing delta between Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and code that the vendors maintain, which slows down the adoption of Android platform and security bug fixes. The solution is to compartmentalize things, so participants in the development and roll-out can develop their parts in isolation from each other. The Treble team is tasked with carrying out the engineering design and implementation of this effort, and also with driving cross-team efforts both within and outside of Google.

Google is and always will be an engineering company. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to take on some of technology's greatest challenges and make an impact on millions, if not billions, of users. At Google, engineers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on massive scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, Social to Local, Google engineers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.

Responsibilities

  • Acquire deep knowledge of Android, Linux, mobile systems, system development, optimization and performance tuning.
  • Develop on a large codebase.
  • Work with others to clarify and drive team vision to successful completion.
  • Design, develop, test, deploy, maintain and improve software.
  • Manage individual project priorities, deadlines and deliverables.
