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. LiteRT is Google’s next generation on-device AI framework, succeeding TensorFlow Lite (TFLite). It is designed to maximize the performance, efficiency, and portability of ML models on a wide array of edge devices, from mobile phones to embedded systems. Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
