Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We are looking for engineers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile.

As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as your fast-paced business grows and evolves. We need engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.

In this role, at Google Cloud Platform (GCP), you will be building the foundational infrastructure for the AI-Native Agentic Cloud to solve enterprise “Ecosystem Sprawl” and ungoverned “Shadow AI.” As companies shift from isolated chatbots to complex, autonomous agents, we are developing the Agent and Skill Registries to serve as a unified control plane across Google Cloud, Workspace, and Gemini. You will act as the definitive single source of truth as this connective tissue allows agents to dynamically discover one another, negotiate tasks, and securely execute enterprise skills and Model Context Protocol servers at scale.

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

US: $262,000 – $365,000 (USD) + 25% bonus target + equity + benefits.

• Own the overall design, architecture, and implementation strategies for the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform (Agent Registry, skills, and AI applications), balancing short-term needs with long-term goals.
• Set the technical direction, plan project deliverables, and drive execution while making direct technical contributions.
• Lead, empower, and grow a team of software engineers by providing technical guidance, navigating complex technical choices, and modeling cross-functional teamwork.
• Establish and maintain rigorous technical standards to ensure exceptional code quality, system reliability, and overall platform performance.
• Partner with product managers, engineering leads, and internal/external stakeholders to define goals, manage strategic relationships, and drive the product roadmap.
