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. In this role, you will work very closely with other executive Software Engineers (SWEs) on the team in developing features in the space of Low Level Virtual Machines (LLVM) optimization and code generation that support (but not limited to) build scalability, toolchain velocity, peak performance and safety. You will develop infrastructure changes (updating our tools and scaling our processes using AI/automation) that help us deliver C++ toolchain always correct and efficient + make the necessary changes upstream in LLVM toolchain that aligns with Google's needs and interests. 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.
