About the job

Platforms Infrastructure Engineering (PIE) operates within the Google Cloud umbrella. We provide the infrastructure on which Google runs - both internally (Ads, YouTube, etc.), and externally (Google Cloud).

Large-scale machine learning (ML) training requires a huge infrastructure footprint (spanning thousands of machines and even datacenters), all of which is connected by a equally large and dense networking infrastructure. Join us to directly enable this next generation of Google's ML/Supercomputer infrastructure. Our mission is to find ways to increase availability, reduce risk to production traffic, and more efficiently operate ML hardware over its lifecycle. We are on the critical path of delivering new ML infrastructure, while also helping save infrastructure costs. We are building key software components in making Cloud and ML infrastructure reliable, highly available, and cheap for Google's internal and external customers.
The US base salary range for this full-time position is $141,000-$202,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

  • Manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. Design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.
  • Collaborate with internal and external partner teams to plan and execute the engineering programs.
