About the job
Like Google’s own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer (SWE) goes way beyond just Search. SWE 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 SWE Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. SWE 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.
Firebase is Google’s app development platform: we build the tools that developers need so they can focus on what makes their app unique. It enables developers to build and operate their app with ease and is currently used by over 3 million apps.
Firebase Remote Config allows customers to configure and enhance their app on the fly, without shipping a new release. We manage core development workflows like feature flagging, rollouts, and A/B testing.
Remote Config is well-loved by developers and is running at scale, powering many app installations around the world and we’re just scratching the surface of what we can do for developers.

We look across Google’s products to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique opportunity to impact important technical decisions across the company.
