About the job
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're 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; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our 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.
With your technical expertise you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.
Formats are optional ad primitives that enhance the Search Ad experience by providing a preview to the advertisers’ landing pages and assisting users in finding the most useful results. They are a big driver of providing user experience for many Google.com users.
Our mission is to compose the right ad to meet users and advertisers needs. The era of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has accelerated the need to quickly build and ship new ad experiences.
