About the job

This posting is for a new vacancy. Google utilizes AI tools to assist in assessing candidates in our hiring processes.

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.

The Agent Endpoint Control Plane team operates at the exciting intersection of enterprise security and AI, bridging centralized Google Cloud governance with secure, low-latency local AI execution.

In this role, you will drive how our secure client sandbox reaches the enterprise fleet. You will develop and maintain the end-to-end release lifecycle, building unified installation packages that deploy local components across macOS, Windows, and Linux. You will manage challenges related to multi-platform CI/CD, cryptographic code signing, and software supply chain security. You will ensure our software is trusted by host operating systems and easily distributable through standard mobile device management (MDM) solutions.

You will grow in a changing environment to ensure the secure, frictionless delivery of local AI agents.

Google is a software development company at heart. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to take on some of technology's greatest challenges and make an impact on users around the world. At Google, software developers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, social to local, Google software developers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.
