About the jobAt Google, research-focused Software Engineers are embedded throughout the company, allowing them to setup large-scale tests and deploy promising ideas quickly and broadly. Ideas may come from internal projects as well as from collaborations with research programs at partner universities and technical institutes all over the world.
From creating experiments and prototyping implementations to designing new architectures, engineers work on real-world problems including artificial intelligence, data mining, natural language processing, hardware and software performance analysis, improving compilers for mobile platforms, as well as core search and much more. But you stay connected to your research roots as an active contributor to the wider research community by partnering with universities and publishing papers.
Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

Responsibilities- Design, train, and optimize foundational algorithms and ML systems (e.g., personalized model adaptation, agentic workflows, contextual memory architectures, dynamic prompt optimization, and multimodal reasoning).
- Lead end-to-end technical development from algorithmic design and experimental prototyping to production-grade architecture and scaled serving infrastructure.
- Partner directly with Google development and product teams to integrate and harden our core technologies within production environments (e.g., Project Helix, agent workspaces, and intelligent system integrations).
- Formulate novel automated and human-in-the-loop evaluation methodologies to measure capability gains, latency/compute efficiency, alignment, and personalization fidelity.
