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. 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.

With your technical expertise you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.

Our team develops the XLA TPU/GPU parallelizing compiler used to partition, optimize, and run large-scale machine learning models across multiple TPU/GPU accelerators for internal and external customers. The XLA Horizontal Scaling Team’s software stack includes the XLA SPMD partitioner, collective and scheduling optimizations, and code generation.

Responsibilities:

• Write product or system development code.
• Participate in, or lead design reviews with peers and stakeholders to decide amongst available technologies.
• Contribute to a compiler which scales-out machine learning models across accelerators like TPU/GPU at Google and Cloud.
• Conduct static and runtime performance analysis of important large-scale production models.
• Design and implement performance optimizations and critical features, which increase the velocity of important production teams.
