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.
Google Labs Generative Media team is a high-velocity group within Google dedicated to making creativity radically more accessible, useful, and playful. This team operates with a startup mentality, managing the company’s earliest and most exciting AI technologies, including breakout hits like MusicLM, ImageFx, Veo, and our latest launch, Google Flow.
As a Senior Front-End Engineer, you will play a critical role in the evolution of Google Flow, a professional-grade tool that empowers creators to generate high-quality video content using GenAI.
Labs is a group focused on incubating early-stage efforts in support of Google’s mission to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team exists to help discover and create new ways to advance our core products through exploration and the application of new technologies. We work to build new solutions that have the potential to transform how users interact with Google. Our goal is to drive innovation by developing new Google products and capabilities that deliver significant impact over longer timeframes.
Responsibilities
- Write and test high-performance front-end code using TypeScript and Angular to build novel generative AI features for Google Flow.
- Lead design reviews with peers and stakeholders to drive the architectural migration from a React prototype to a scalable Modern Angular codebase.
- Review code developed by other developers and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., establishing strict typing standards, component reusability, and performance efficiency).
- Contribute to technical documentation and educational content to support the team's transition to a new framework and onboard new engineers.
- Triage product or system issues and debug/track/resolve UI/UX bugs to ensure a stable experience for weekly releases to professional users.
