From concept design and testing to data analysis and support, you will oversee the technical execution and business operations of Google's online advertising platforms or product partnerships. You will be able to balance business and partner needs with technical constraints, develop innovative, cutting edge solutions and act as a partner and consultant to those you are working with. You will also be able to build tools and automate products, oversee the technical execution and business operations of Google's partnerships, as well as develop product strategy and prioritize projects and resources. The Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) for Google Maps Platform (GMP) is a specialized engineering role that sits at the intersection of product development and customer implementation. Unlike traditional engineers who focus primarily on internal product cycles, FDEs work "at the front lines," embedding themselves within the technical ecosystems of our most complex partners. Your mission is to ensure that Google's geospatial technology solves real-world business problems at scale. By embedding with accounts, you will serve a dual purpose: providing "white glove" deployment of complex Geospatial AI systems and acting as a critical feedback loop, transforming real-world field insights into Google Maps Platforms future product roadmap. The Geo team is focused on building the most accurate, comprehensive, and useful maps for our users, through products like Maps, Earth, Street View, Google Maps Platform, and more. Every month, more than a billion people rely on Maps services to explore the world and navigate their daily lives. The Geo team also enables developers to use the power of Google Maps platforms to enhance their apps and websites. As they plot a course for the future of mapping, they are solving complex computer science problems, designing beautiful and intuitive product experiences, and improving our understanding of the real world. Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
