About the job

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 take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward.

The team is working on all Multimodal efforts across Gemini. We launched image retrieval, image understanding and generation. This includes a significant amount of deep modeling such as Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF), and iterative process optimization (IPO) establishing data flywheel, etc. Part of the team is also involved in building necessary infrastructure and landing multimodal model capabilities and features.

In this role, you will have significant external impact, offering tremendous potential for growth and increased responsibility.

A conversational AI tool that enables users to collaborate with generative AI and help augment their imagination, expand their curiosity, and enhance their productivity.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with Research teams to understand technologies, adapting and integrating them into Gemini/Bard to drive continuous improvement.
• Leverage Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF), and Preference Optimization (IPO) to quality hill climb.
• Conduct data analysis to uncover insights, pinpoint opportunities, and inform the strategic development of a data flywheel.
