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.

Chrome SWAN is responsible for making sure that the connections you use to connect to websites are secure from attackers. That means no one can eavesdrop, change your data, nor impersonate the sites you're connecting to.

We own every part of HTTPS in Chrome, from the low-level TLS protocol implementation up through through policy decisions like what organizations we trust to vouch for websites (we run the Chrome Root Program). We help transition the web to HTTPS by default. We even write new web standards, covering things like how the web will adapt to post-quantum cryptography.

SWAN is also part of Chrome's Security team, which means that we also help secure Chrome in other ways, including triaging security vulnerabilities, performing security reviews of other teams' features, and more.

Chrome is dedicated to building a better, more open web. We’re focused on making a better browser (on both desktop and mobile) to help users take advantage of all the web has to offer in a safe and secure way.Chrome is available across all major platforms — iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux and Chrome OS. We also built Chrome as an open source project so the entire web ecosystem could benefit from the latest innovations in speed, simplicity and security.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
