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.

Our mission at Google Pay is to make digital finance simple, safe, and universally accessible.

Operating at an unprecedented scale, our Singapore-based team is the engine behind the overarching Growth and Communications (Comms) platforms. Our Comms infrastructure powers the high-throughput messaging systems required to reliably engage hundreds of millions of users. Simultaneously, under Growth, we fully own high-volume user acquisition channels including our core referral and reward engines that drive massive-scale traffic and generate multi-million dollar business streams.

In this role, you will design and deploy scalable features ranging from our core referral and reward engines to robust, high-throughput communication infrastructure that shape the financial journey for hundreds of millions of users, while leveraging agentic workflows and generative AI tools to accelerate delivery.

Whether it is paying online with Autofill, using tap and pay in stores, or using the Google Pay app, the Payments team at Google is focused on making payments simple, seamless, and secure. In addition to consumer payment technologies, the Payments team also powers the money movement between Google and its consumers and businesses.

Responsibilities

• Design and deploy features across Google Pay’s mobile, web, and backend ecosystems, focusing on seamless Remote Procedure Call (RPC) integration and UI excellence.
• Lead technical designs for robust backend services and data processing pipelines that support massive-scale growth experiments.
  
• Ensure long-term feature reliability by building comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and automated performance tracking.
  
• Contribute to engineering excellence by participating in design reviews, improving code quality, and contributing to technical discussions within the team.
  
• Leverage DevAI and agentic coding workflows to accelerate end-to-end development, setting a high standard for AI-assisted engineering productivity within the team.
