Job description

Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. 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. Our engineering domain spans the full networking and security stack from enforcing continuous identity and device posture checks on every request, to architecting customer-dedicated egress routing, seamless GCP VPC integration, and multi-cloud connectivity. Because we operate in the critical path of enterprise productivity, our systems are engineered for extreme resiliency, deep observability, and the highest regulatory compliance standards (FedRAMP, DoD IL5, HIPAA, etc.), all without adding perceptible latency to the end-user browsing experience. Application Instructions: In most instances, this position requires in-person interviews as part of the hiring process. Chrome is dedicated to building a better, more open web. We’re focused on making a better browser (on both desktop and mobile) to help users take advantage of all the web has to offer in a safe and secure way.Chrome is available across all major platforms — iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux and Chrome OS. We also built Chrome as an open source project so the entire web ecosystem could benefit from the latest innovations in speed, simplicity and security. Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. US: $207000 - $300000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits Learn more about benefits at Google . • Define and drive the multi-year technical outlook and architecture for CEP Secure Gateway and the broader Chrome Enterprise portfolio, aligning engineering roadmaps with broader product area and company objectives. • Establish technical consensus across divergent viewpoints and lead complex, multi-quarter integrations across partner teams in Chromium, Google Cloud (GCP Networking, IAP, IAM, Cloud Security), Workspace, and Safe Browsing. • Architect next-generation, globally distributed proxy infrastructure, customer-dedicated egress routing, and seamless GCP/multi-cloud VPC integrations capable of processing massive enterprise traffic with sub-millisecond latency overhead. • Set the standard for mission-critical reliability and observability across inline traffic paths—driving strict Service Level Objectives (SLO) governance, hop-by-hop telemetry, and architectural adherence to stringent regulatory compliance frameworks (FedRAMP, DoD IL5, HIPAA, etc.). • Mentor and coach senior engineers and emerging technical leads, elevating design review excellence, architectural decision-making, and engineering execution. • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience. • 8 years of experience programming in C++. • 5 years of experience building and developing large-scale infrastructure, distributed systems or networks, or experience with compute technologies, storage, or hardware architecture. • 3 years of experience with cloud networking architectures in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or multi-cloud environments (e.g., VPCs, Private Service Connect, Cloud DNS, mTLS, and custom ingress/egress routing). Minimum qualifications: • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience. • 8 years of experience programming in C++. • 5 years of experience building and developing large-scale infrastructure, distributed systems or networks, or experience with compute technologies, storage, or hardware architecture. • 3 years of experience with cloud networking architectures in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or multi-cloud environments (e.g., VPCs, Private Service Connect, Cloud DNS, mTLS, and custom ingress/egress routing).
