Software Engineer AI Jobs in Sunnyvale, CA

About the job

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.

Gemini Cloud Assist is designed to simplify how customers learn, design, deploy, and operate their services. Our goal is to establish intelligent AI agent as a primary interface for cloud operations, integrating seamlessly across the Cloud Console, IDEs, and other developer surfaces. In this role, you will focus on the Quality Flywheel, a foundational platform at the core of our AI quality strategy. You will build the end-to-end system that drives our agent’s continuous, automated improvement. This involves analyzing user interactions, implementing real-time evaluations to detect successes and failures, generating high-quality evaluation data, and creating feedback loops that drive model self-improvement and fine-tuning.

Responsibilities

• Lead a team of engineers, driving career growth, team culture, and execution across data collection, evaluation generation, and unified benchmarks.

• Direct software design and implementation for next-gen evaluation infrastructure (Eval Infra), tooling, and Gemini post-training systems adhering to architectural best practices.
• Partner across teams to distill complex, ambiguous model and platform requirements into simplified, robust technical solutions.
• Drive overarching testing and reliability architecture, advocating production stability, test environment improvements, and on-call operational support.
