About the job
At Google, our philosophy is build it, break it and then rebuild it better. That thinking is at the core of how we approach testing at Google. Unlike roles with similar names at the other companies, Test Engineers at Google aren't manual testers -- you write scripts to automate testing and create tools so developers can test their own code. As a Test Engineer, you navigate Google's massive codebase, identify weak spots and constantly design better and creative ways to break software and identify potential problems. You'll have a huge impact on the quality of Google's growing suite of products and services.
Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
Responsibilities
- Define test strategy, lead and review test plan development based on Product Excellence/test strategy. Lead the test effort for projects, managing planning, organization, execution, and delivery.

- Develop data center software systems and tools, their functionality and usage by various teams.
- Automate test procedures/test scenarios, work with engineering teams for possible improvements to the DC software systems. Identify and implement improvements to the testing process, and advocate for best practices.
- Guide testing execution, perform quality analysis, analyze results. Communicate the testing results to stakeholders, contribute and influence software product design, testability, usability and product deployment.
