You will lead technical security system life cycles from ideation and requirements gathering through design, execution, and post-launch evaluation, ensuring solutions are scalable, repeatable, and align with global security and product strategies.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible.
