About the role
Google Cloud's software engineers develop next-generation technologies, and this team is securing generative AI and agentic applications with a deny-by-default security perimeter. It enforces dynamic ingress and egress guardrails across agents, models, tools, and data using Google Cloud's identity and policy stack. This role builds data-plane and control-plane components and low-latency services that evaluate identity, context, and policy at Google Cloud scale.
What you will do
- Design, build, and deploy data-plane and control-plane components enforcing deny-by-default AI policies. Own features from design through launch, and help shape your roadmap.
- Build low-latency services that evaluate identity, context, and policy at Google Cloud scale. Author design docs and weigh performance, reliability, and maintenance trade-offs with senior engineers.
- Partner with Cloud Load Balancing, Cloud Run, IAM, and Agent Platform to integrate your features. Help define API agreements and integration details, and flag cross-team blockers early.
- Find and fix component risks, from policy correctness to failure modes and abuse paths. Join on-call response, resolve production incidents, and ensure fixes land.
- Turn requirements into clear milestones, estimate reliably, and deliver on schedule. Steer features through launch, including dry-runs and safe enforcement. Write clean, tested, documented code. Conduct thorough code reviews, and mentor Level3 engineers and interns.
