Software Engineer, GeminiApp Info Seek Quality

Snapshot

We are the Information Verticals team for the Gemini App, bringing search, maps, shopping and other information-related features to both the web and mobile Gemini applications. We are a fast-paced organization bringing features from ideation to launch in a matter of months. We are a non-bureaucratic, innovative, bottom-up organization.

We are seeking an experienced and self-motivated Software Engineer with particular expertise in quality and AI applications to ensure the Gemini applications deliver world-class, reliable, and personalized experiences.

 

About Us

Within the Information Verticals team, the Shopping team is at the forefront of Google's shift towards agentic experiences. We are redefining how users discover, research, and purchase products by combining the reasoning capabilities of Gemini with the comprehensive data of the Shopping Graph. To constantly innovate, we work closely with various Google DeepMind (GDM) research units.

Following a breakout year with two major launches in Q4 (launch announcement) that were well received in the press, we have established a new baseline for highly visual agentic shopping. We have one of the highest favorability & retention metrics on GeminiApp have and were featured prominently in the recent "Personal Intelligence" launch (launch, Sundar tweet). This role offers the unique opportunity to make impact on a high-growth vertical that is already seeing massive traction,).
