ABOUT THE JOB:

Small teams, operating with context, empowerment and access to the world’s most

promising technology, often create the breakthroughs that define markets. At

Google, we can point to 10 products and platforms with over a billion users that

started out as projects that initially no one really believed in other than the

few engineers who started them.

The Office of the CTO (OCTO) in Google Cloud has leveraged this insight,

combined with the direct sponsorship of the Cloud CTO and CEO, to help our most

strategic customers transform their organizations using small, adaptable teams

and methods, while concurrently supporting our internal collaborators as they

take these early technology proof points and build them into scaled products and

platforms.

As a Principal Software Engineer, Applied AI, Office of the CTO, Google Cloud,

you will create and reinforce the human pathways between Google Engineering and

our most strategic customers and partners, allowing all of us to start from

loosely defined, potentially transformative market opportunities and convert

them into new, technology-enabled businesses. You will help our customers create

their future and help us create the future of Google by continuously tuning our

innovation system and products to the needs of the world’s most complex

enterprises.

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
