About the job

More than 2 billion people rely on Geo services to explore the real world and navigate their daily lives. At the center of these journeys are rich visualizations of the world: 2D cartographic maps, 3D and photoreal representations, and aerial and street-level views. These visualizations power flagship experiences like Immersive Navigation and Ask Maps, and the underlying platform brings those capabilities to Search, Gemini, YouTube, automakers and millions of developers.

As people increasingly turn to AI to understand the world, the map must evolve from a static reference into a living, intelligent canvas. It should visually explain answers, show real-world proof, surface what matters before users search, and move seamlessly from orbit to sidewalk.

Delivering this everywhere requires one unified rendering and mapmaking platform. It has to run on every device and browser, let an AI cartographer compose maps in real time, and keep quality consistent across every surface that shows a Google map.

As Director of Engineering for Maps & Views Experience Platform, you'll lead both: defining how billions of people see the world, and building the foundation that makes it possible everywhere.

The Geo team is focused on building the most accurate, comprehensive, and useful maps for our users, through products like Maps, Earth, Street View, Google Maps Platform, and more. Every month, more than a billion people rely on Maps services to explore the world and navigate their daily lives.

The Geo team also enables developers to use the power of Google Maps platforms to enhance their apps and websites. As they plot a course for the future of mapping, they are solving complex computer science problems, designing beautiful and intuitive product experiences, and improving our understanding of the real world.

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

US: $307000 - $427000 (USD) + 30% bonus target + equity + benefits

Responsibilities

  • Lead a team of 100+ Seattle/Mountain View/Bengaluru engineers spanning 2D/3D graphics, client/server infrastructure, map data/serving, GenAI platforms/experiences, and quality/evaluation.
  • Set the technical vision that enables us to develop solutions that serve the flagship Google Maps experiences (Immersive Navigation, Ask Maps) and broader Google ecosystem, including Auto OEMs, 3P developers, and Google services (Search, Gemini, YouTube).
  • Pioneer AI-driven mapmaking by building reusable cartographic building blocks and automated visual evaluation, so the map can adapt to every user and question while holding a high bar for quality, performance and trust.
  • Inspire and grow a team of engineering leaders to collaborate as "one team” within Maps & Views as well as with Geo/Google partners.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
