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. In this role, you will lead and manage a high-performing team of Software Engineers (SWEs) focused on the design, implementation, and launch of critical scheduling features supporting training and inference across Alphabet. You will support key internal customers and products including DeepMind (DM), Google Search, YouTube, Ads, and Waymo while partnering closely with leadership and engineering teams across Compute infrastructure, SRE, Scheduling, XManager, Uniserve, and other key infrastructure stakeholders to drive aligned technical roadmaps. Additionally, you will shape the technical direction for next-generation scheduling infrastructure, balancing long-term architectural health with immediate business delivery needs.
