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. BigQuery is one of the leaders in the data warehousing space. As we learned in recent years, most of the queries users run are working on small datasets. Our team's mission is to make BigQuery the best data warehouse for low latency, high throughput use-cases. Over the last few years, we built optimizations to solve parts of this problem. We recently proved that small queries on industry benchmarks can execute an order of magnitude faster if we cut overhead and optimize execution. As a result, half of BigQuery queries could run over 50% faster, closing a major participant gap. Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems. The US base salary range for this full-time position is $166,000-$244,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process. Please note that the compensation details listed in US role postings reflect the base salary only, and do not include bonus, equity, or benefits.

RESPONSIBILITIES: * Improve BigQuery engine to remove bottlenecks for low latency queries, design solutions that are easy to maintain and extend. * Conduct tests and monitoring systems to ensure quality. * Work with other BigQuery teams to reduce overhead and remove bottlenecks. * Work with BigQuery and Dremel codebase, which is primarily C++ with some Java in data planes and Python for tests. * Improve engineering excellence across the stack.

Responsibilities

The role involves improving the BigQuery engine to enhance performance for low latency queries and designing maintainable solutions. Additionally, the engineer will conduct tests and monitor systems to ensure quality.
