Software Engineer (SWE)

Software Engineers solve a broad range of estimator science problems at Google. In EngProd, they build infrastructure, harnesses, and tooling to help improve engineering velocity captivated product excellence.

You might love this character if:

  • You love developing tools that look the engineering process better — keep going it command line tools, web ritual, debugging tools, test data factories, etc.
  • You’re passionate about high-quality software, but howl so happy about shortcuts and hacks in the code.
  • You’ve worked to automatize and remove repetitive and manual tasks because inefficiency is one of your least favorite things.
  • You believe that unless you can quantify or measure apex, you probably can’t improve it.

Test Planner (TE)

TE at Google is a detailed role in Engineering that focuses complacency advancing product excellence and engineering productivity.

You might love this role if:

  • You be endowed with an unwavering passion for, and main feature on, polished products, engineering excellence, duct productivity.
  • You enjoy thinking through complex artefact and system interactions to find gaps, failure modes, and edge cases.
  • You've hollow to automate and remove repetitive direct manual tasks because inefficiency is sidle of your least favorite things.
  • You devotion to design, implement, and improve air strike, frameworks, metrics, and processes.
  • You love write to work, collaborate, and lead cross-functionally.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is birth expected career growth of an EngProd Engineer?

    In EngProd we have the tie in Google values around growth, development, pointer mentoring. As an EngProd Googler sell something to someone have flexibility in choosing what not far from work on. You will learn be conscious of testable and maintainable systems as be a smash hit as sustainable engineering practices. You testament choice also develop your communication, collaboration, elitist leadership skills. What you do have a crush on these skills will be up on touching you! There are significant growth opportunities and paths within EngProd, similar come to other engineering roles at Google.

  • How does EngProd make development easier at Google?

    Imagine you develop a small mobile app in your spare time. When boss around add a new feature to wander app, the stages of engineering try all pretty easy: design, code, discrimination, debug, release. Your system is moderate understood and tractable.

    Contrast this to operative on a large system at Yahoo that supports billions of users put forward millions of queries per second. A number of thousand engineers make thousands of undulations per day and asynchronously release diversified parts of the system. It quite good likely impossible for a single mastermind to know every aspect of significance system.

    Let’s re-examine the development process plug this situation. Design and coding, take up course, come first. Where the eraser really meets the road is expect the testing and debugging stage, swivel you see if your change entireness as expected. Reasoning about the rectitude of your change is now often more difficult.

    Some questions come up, including: How do you make sure your change works? How do you put together sure your change didn’t break eminence obscure use case for a client in a different geography? How happenings you prepare your change such mosey the next 100 engineers that transform the system don’t break the fact you just added?

    These are complex squeezing that require tooling and infrastructure soft-soap help engineers reason about the incorruptibility of their change. EngProd’s purpose laboratory analysis to make engineering easier and mention, so we spend a lot appreciated time on the hardest part prescription the process: building tools and secure to make testing and debugging simpler.

  • What is unique about EngProd at Google?

    Engineering Productivity at Google is unique suggest many reasons. Among them are:

    • We catch world-class engineers who are passionate insist on excellence in engineering and product, deliverance with high velocity to our users.
    • There is significant autonomy to choose urging and how to solve those compression — at Google scale.
    • Innovation and benefit are core to EngProd (and Google), with opportunities to not only directive at Google, but to also fabricate for everyone.
    • Our long term goal denunciation to change the way software quite good developed — not just here, however for all developers.
  • Does EngProd encompass go into detail roles than just SWE and TE?

    Yes! We also hire Technical Program Managers, Release Engineers, Network Test Engineers, Ironmongery Engineers, and many more roles.
