Job description

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, or a related technical field or equivalent practical experience.
• 2 years of experience with software development in one or more programming languages (e.g., Python, C, C++, Java, JavaScript).
• Experience in Quality Assurance (QA) or Quality Engineering (QE), Development and Operations (DevOps), engineering productivity, Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) and product quality.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Experience partnering with or working within an Engineering Productivity (EngProd) or Developer Experience organization to improve engineering workflows.

ABOUT THE JOB:

We believe there are many problems in the world in which robotics could play a significant role in making it easier, faster and safer for people to get things done. We’re looking for roboticists, designers, hardware and software engineers to help us explore these possibilities, develop breakthrough technologies, and build new products that could help millions of people.

This is a dedicated Software Quality and Engineering Productivity individual contributor role. We are looking for a software engineer passionate about software quality, automated testing, release discipline, and engineering productivity, with a strong emphasis and experience with large-scale data storage and processing systems. As robotics data is expected to grow 10-50x over the upcoming years, we need dedicated talent to help us build, maintain, and optimize our testing and quality ecosystem in this particular area.

Robotics infrastructure is uniquely difficult. You will help solve problems at the intersection of large and rapidly growing raw data storage and flexible data processing to support complex model training. Your work will directly impact our systems quality and engineering velocity, determining how efficiently our engineers and scientists can run iterations with new data and test new models.

Artificial intelligence will be one of humanity’s most transformative inventions. At DeepMind, we are a pioneering AI lab with exceptional interdisciplinary teams focused on advancing AI development to solve complex global challenges and accelerate high-quality product innovation for billions of users. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, ensuring safety and ethics are always our highest priority.

We are pushing the boundaries across multiple domains. Our global teams offer learning opportunities and varied career pathways for those driven to achieve exceptional results through collective effort.

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

US: $147000 - $210000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits
