About the job

Google’s software developers 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 software developers 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 developer, 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 software developers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.

The team mission is to provide egocentric perception solutions for Google to enable immersive human-machine interactions. The ML team is striving to improve existing models and algorithms, while also researching novel approaches to achieve faster and more accurate performance on a variety of vision applications.

The Google Augmented Reality team is a diverse group of experts tasked with building the foundations for great immersive computing and building helpful, delightful user experiences. We’re focused on making immersive computing accessible to billions of people through mobile devices, and our scope continues to grow and evolve.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop infrastructure/pipelines to build end-to-end perception systems. Depending on the specific project, this may involve training and evaluating deep learning models, data processing, and productionization of prototype systems.
• Optimize algorithms run-time efficiency and integrate in the product platform.
• Write production-quality C , Python code, and tests.
• Communicate, design, and implement decisions effectively through architecture/design documents and code.
• Work collaboratively with other developing teams to optimize performance and usability for use cases that leverage Machine Learning (ML) perception models on a novel platform.
