Job description

The Software Engineer III position focuses on developing solutions for Google's Spanner OA and Disaggregation team. This team is responsible for scaling Spanner to manage new read loads and enabling high-performance data access methods. The role requires expertise in software development, particularly in C++, and involves working on complex distributed systems. Engineers in this position will collaborate with various Google Cloud customers to deliver scalable database features.

Requirements

  • 2 years of experience with software development using C++.
  • 2 years of experience designing, building, or maintaining distributed systems or large-scale computing infrastructure.
  • Experience with performance analysis, troubleshooting, and debugging software systems.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement C++ solutions to solve complex algorithmic issues related to data structures, storage I/O, concurrent programming, and SQL.
  • Develop isolated data access methods that enable high-performance investigative query processing to scale separately from Spanner's transactional engine.
  • Troubleshoot, analyze, and optimize a massive-scale distributed stateful system to ensure strict correctness, availability, and resource efficiency.
  • Leverage AI and LLM-based engineering tools to accelerate coding, reviewing, testing, and debugging workflows while retaining ownership of the outcomes.
  • Collaborate closely with major Spanner infrastructure and Cloud customers to gather business requirements and deliver scalable database features.
