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. At Google's scale, our security approach requires constant innovation to keep all our customers safe. Our team utilizes the latest AI advances to ensure cloud products meet the highest security standards, discover novel vulnerabilities across billions of lines of code, and automate fixing issues before they reach production. Security Data Foundations is a new team within CCSE that ensures the data used for security evaluation and decision making across Cloud is reliable, meets a high quality bar, and evolves with changing security landscape. You'll have the opportunity to set the direction for this function in partnership with product security leaders across Google Cloud. Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably.
