About the job

The AI Foundry team's mission is to power AI journeys with useful and trusted data at scale, and powers various Google products including Gemini model development and Google Search. The Data Quality team in AI Foundry focuses on advancing data quality to enhance the user experience of Google’s products.

We are seeking a Principal Engineer who will be the Technical Lead (TL) for data quality and set the technical direction, vision, and strategy for the area. In this role, you will be responsible for delivering high-quality datasets for Search and DeepMind training by orchestrating upstream capabilities to meet downstream consumption requirements. This is a unique opportunity to influence how Google understands and utilizes the world's data at an unprecedented scale.

The Core team builds the technical foundation behind Google’s flagship products. We are owners and advocates for the underlying design elements, developer platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Google. These are the essential building blocks for excellent, safe, and coherent experiences for our users and drive the pace of innovation for every developer. We look across Google’s products to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique opportunity to impact important technical decisions across the company.

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

Responsibilities

  • Lead the strategy, technical vision, and roadmaps for the data quality team to deliver high-quality datasets for DeepMind and Search.
  • Drive the architecture toward establishing the data flywheel for ML training data and Search Context that can self correct and self heal as the data travels through multiple dynamic and large-scale systems (such as sourcing, acquisition and indexing) to the data store.
  • Collaborate closely with DeepMind and Search researchers, data analysts, and engineers to identify key Value of Data (VoD) signals.
  • Partner with infrastructure owners in AI Foundry to evolve systems—including crawl, processing, and signal enrichment—to deliver high-quality datasets that power Search features and AI models.
  • Provide technical guidance to critical components of the context quality area, such as large-scale signal developments, design and development of quality metrics.

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.
