About the Role

As a Systems Development Engineer III at Google, you will be part of a team that manages services and systems at scale. You will use your engineering discipline to automate the mundane and reduce toil. The role emphasizes the development of tools and solutions that fix classes of problems, focusing on observability: instrumenting first, then turning data into knowledge, and finally knowledge into action. The operational efficiency of Google systems, services, virtual compute environments, and the operating systems that power them impact the environment, not just the bottom line.

Responsibilities

  • Provide technical support for complex projects to increase efficiency, enhance scalability, and reduce toil.
  • Assist teams in implementations of security controls and security hardening.
  • Establish documentation, code labs, and other resources for service owners and build up an authoritative repository.
  • Coordinate and work with the platform teams on a regular basis.
  • Automate and improve the metadata of server ownership.
  • Propose solutions and improvements to make service management easier.
  • Eliminate repetitive tasks by automating complex system administration tasks using coding, scripting, or systems engineering skills.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or IT-related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3 years of experience with systems automation, and with systems design and implementation.
  • 3 years of experience with technical infrastructure (e.g., deployment, maintenance, troubleshooting).
  • Experience with shell scripting and automation.
  • Preferred: Understanding of complex IT infrastructure and security standards, ability to troubleshoot issues, and excellent customer service, documentation, prioritization, multitasking, communication, and leadership skills.

Why Google?

Google brings together people with a wide variety of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We encourage collaboration, thinking big, and taking risks in a blame-free environment. We promote self-direction to work on meaningful projects, while also striving to create an environment that provides the support and mentorship needed to learn and grow. Together, we engineer and build the infrastructure, tools, access, and telemetry for systems that enable orchestration of Google-scale services.
