About the job

Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Engineering 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 Engineering 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 Platforms & Devices Engineering, Infrastructure & Operations (PDEIO) Security team is hiring an Engineering Manager in Singapore to lead a new team focused on the supply chain security of Chrome, ChromeOS, and Android. This team is responsible for verifying critical production infrastructure and security controls to protect billions of users.

You will lead security initiatives covering source code trust, build integrity, and third-party risk. You will be developing risk‑assessment tools, implementing chain‑of‑custody verification, and building autonomous agents to solve security challenges. You will also drive regulatory compliance programs and implement signals intelligence to enable rapid incident response.

Android is Google’s mobile operating system powering more than 3 billion devices worldwide. Android is about bringing computing to everyone in the world. We believe computing is a super power for good, enabling access to information, economic opportunity, productivity, connectivity between friends and family and more. We think everyone in the world should have access to the best computing has to offer. We provide the platform for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and developers to build compelling computing devices (smartphones, tablets, TVs, wearables, etc) that run the best apps/services for everyone in the world.

Responsibilities

• Establish and grow a team of software engineers with a focus on security.
• Research, design and develop software, tooling, processes and configuration to protect all parts of our supply chain against compromised insider accounts and third‑party dependency risks.
• Drive team planning and strategy with ideas, proposals, and initiatives to strengthen supply chain security i.e. to protect source code, builds, and tools from malicious changes, to audit critical infrastructure access, and harden systems so that no person can act alone in making production changes.
• Perform security reviews and design engagements with stakeholders from across Chrome, ChromeOS and Android.
• Review code developed by other engineers and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., style guidelines, checking code in, accuracy, testability, and efficiency).
