The area
Google is and always will be an engineering company. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to tackle some of technology's greatest challenges and make an impact on millions, if not billions, of users. At Google, engineers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on massive scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From AdWords to Chrome, Android to YouTube, Social to Local, Google engineers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.
The role
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 tackle new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.
Google aspires to be an organization that reflects the globally diverse audience that our search engine and tools serve. We believe that in addition to hiring the best talent, a diversity of perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of better products and services. Google is invested in increasing the pipeline of Computer Scientists and Software Developers, particularly those who are historically underrepresented in the field. Many aspiring Computer Scientists could benefit from a program that bridges the gap between academia and industry.
Google Engineering Residency Program is a 1-year program open to all qualified graduates who received a degree in Computer Science or Computer Engineering within the last year (or who will receive a degree by the summer of 2016). It combines CS education with hands-on software engineering experience in a supported, closely mentored cohort. In addition to an intensive industry-focused curriculum, Engineering Residency Program provides residents with a strong foundation in CS (as it applies to real engineering problems) and experience working on complex programming projects with Google engineers.
The Engineering Residency Program is open to all qualified college graduates and is committed to addressing diversity in our company and in the technology industry. Those who are members of historically underrepresented groups in the technology industry are encouraged to apply.
