Senior Software Engineering Manager, Chrome Enterprise

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.

The Chrome Enterprise team addresses the challenges of deploying and securing Chrome at scale for over 3 billion users. As work shifts to the browser, our full-stack team builds robust services to protect enterprise data amidst AI-driven transformations. Contributing to Chromium and building cloud infrastructure on Google 3 and Workspace, we deliver customizable AI services, data governance, and deployable zero-trust solutions. We partner with Safe Browsing, Workspace, Cloud Security, and Gemini teams to bring Google's best enterprise productivity and security technologies to customers globally.

Chrome is dedicated to building a better, more open web. We’re focused on making a better browser (on both desktop and mobile) to help users take advantage of all the web has to offer in a safe and secure way.Chrome is available across all major platforms — iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux and Chrome OS. We also built Chrome as an open source project so the entire web ecosystem could benefit from the latest innovations in speed, simplicity and security.
