Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Developing Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of Engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a Software Developing Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. Teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.
With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally.

The Google Ads ecosystem is an immense, global platform supporting billions of users and advertisers. The issue of maintaining a trusted environment at this scale is monumental.
In this role, you will be dedicated to creating technical solutions that detect, assess, and mitigate advanced threats. You will be a technical lead against the most elusive forms of Ads abuse and will be critical in securing one of the most visible and systems in the world, directly impacting Google's core business and maintaining the safety of its users.
