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.

Our team is transforming Android into the premier AI-powered operating system by integrating agentic capabilities. Leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) and advanced machine learning, we redefine mobile interactions through agents that fulfill complex user requests via UI automation, tool calling, and hybrid architectures.

In this role, you will manage cutting-edge technical challenges, including building and deploying sophisticated LLM solutions, developing agents that interpret screen content, understand user behavior, and execute actions through APIs, enhancing model efficiency and latency for mobile hardware, and partnering with GDM on pre-training and post-training Gemma models specifically for computer use and tool calling.

The Platforms and Devices team encompasses Google's various computing software platforms across environments (desktop, mobile, applications), as well as our first party devices and services that combine the best of Google AI, software, and hardware. Teams across this area research, design, and develop new technologies to make our user's interaction with computing faster and more seamless, building innovative experiences for our users around the world.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
