ABOUT THE JOB:

Ad fraud is one of the biggest challenges facing the digital advertising

industry across web, app, video, and beyond. AdSpam’s mission is to protect

advertisers, users, publishers, and Google from fraud and abuse. We prevent the

exploitation of Google’s ad systems for monetary gain, collaborate across the

industry to combat fraud beyond Google, and safeguard business against

sophisticated, persistent, and globally distributed threats to ensure the

long-term health of a free and open digital ecosystem.

Google’s advertising business increasingly relies on automated campaign

strategies powered by AI bidding and optimization models. These systems

automatically place ads to drive real business results—such as purchases, app

installs, and leads (conversions). However, their effectiveness depends entirely

on the integrity of their training data. When fraudsters manipulate conversion

signals or generate fake activity, these models can be tricked into directing

advertiser spend toward fraudulent or low-value inventory.

The Conversions and Bidding Integrity team directly addresses this challenge. As

a Product Manager, you will protect the critical signals feeding Google’s

business generation and bidding models from advanced abuse, complementing

broader Invalid Traffic (IVT) defenses to steer advertiser budgets away from

risk and toward genuine business value.

Google Ads is helping power the open internet with the best technology that

connects and creates value for people, publishers, advertisers, and Google.

We’re made up of multiple teams, building Google’s Advertising products

including search, display, shopping, travel and video advertising, as well as

analytics. Our teams create trusted experiences between people and businesses

with useful ads. We help grow businesses of all sizes from small businesses, to

large brands, to YouTube creators, with effective advertiser tools that deliver

measurable results. We also enable Google to engage with customers at scale.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills,

experience, and relevant education or training.

US: $138000 - $197000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits
