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.

As a Staff Software Engineer (Technical Lead) for Consumer Payments in Singapore, you will serve as a versatile technical anchor driving the evolution of Google’s payment capabilities.

This is a flexible, high-impact leadership role where your influence extends beyond a single team. You will provide technical direction, architect solutions, and make contributions across multiple domains and markets (e.g., eWallets, A2A rails, conversion funnels). You will partner closely with PMs, UX, and cross-functional leadership globally to translate ambitious business goals into resilient, scalable software systems.

You are expected to be a technical leader, remaining deeply involved in the codebase. You will contribute high-impact code and architectural designs for ambiguous and complex technical challenges across markets while raising the technical bar for engineers across the organization.Whether it is paying online with Autofill, using tap and pay in stores, or using the Google Pay app, the Payments team at Google is focused on making payments simple, seamless, and secure. In addition to consumer payment technologies, the Payments team also powers the money movement between Google and its consumers and businesses.

Responsibilities

  • Define and drive the technical strategy across multiple areas within consumer payments, prioritizing efforts across different market-specific growth initiatives.
  • Write scalable, maintainable code and design architecture for critical, high-ambiguity system components. Use data and technical judgment to simplify domain complexity and guide targeted investments that eliminate technical debt.
  • Partner with Directors, PMs, UX, and TPMs across Singapore and global engineering centers to drive consensus and align technical strategies across markets.
  • Advocate for AI-accelerated development workflows by defining team-wide policies for the verification, security, and maintenance of AI-generated code.
  • Provide technical guidance and oversight to multiple concurrent workstreams, acting as an "Uber TL" rather than being tied to a single delivery team. Mentor and coach senior engineers across multiple areas, set high-bar engineering standards, and conduct rigorous design/code reviews.

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.
