About the job
You lead all aspects of web development, requirements gathering, software development, testing, documentation, training, implementation, ongoing support, and maintenance for both in-house and customer-facing web applications. You will work closely with a cross-functional team of Googlers using UI and functional specs/prototypes as input. You are empowered to act like an owner, take action and innovate to meet user and customer needs.
As a Senior Application Engineer, you will drive project outcomes by owning an area of work, helping set technical direction and priorities for adjacent engineers, and building internal solutions with custom front-end and back-end services. You will scope difficult and nebulous problems and help resolve them by identifying, implementing, and launching solutions without continual steering or oversight from team organizers. You will interact regularly with analysts and business process owners to translate business requirements into technical solutions, and present complex techno-functional information in a clear and concise manner to both technical and non-technical audiences. You will influence or guide the work of others (design reviews, mentorship, etc.) as appropriate leveraging their expertise.
Responsibilities
- Write clear, modular, well-structured, and self-sustaining codes, and develop overall systems design, research, and evaluate vendor supplied applications, and develop recommendations on those applications.
- Build internal solutions, with custom front-end and back-end services with minimal assistance, and identify processes and solutions to ensure controls compliance can be enforced and monitored.
- Help design, build, and deploy internal business applications to support Google’s technology lifecycle, collaboration and spaces, service delivery management, and data and business intelligence.
- Conduct and oversee testing of application modules to ensure application meets specifications and collaborate with analysts and business process owners within one or more teams to help translate business requirements into technical solutions.
