About the job

Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. 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.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people's lives better through technology.

Responsibilities

• Innovate, design, and implement new modem software features and develop embedded frameworks, ensuring scalability and leverage across product lines.
• Implement and tune system performance to improve throughput and minimize latency while optimizing power, thermal, especially in RF and Antenna chain.
• Build automated regression systems, factory calibration tools, and developer utilities to validate features and measure performance.
• Partner with both internal and external teams to define requirements, ensure regulatory compliance, and meet rigorous conformance metrics.
• Lead the whole system scoping, estimation, and planning while ensuring execution aligns with established team development processes and new development projects execution.
