Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer (SWE) goes way beyond just Search. SWE Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a SWE Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. SWE teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.

Low Level Virtual Machines (LLVM) is the foundation of Google’s high performance ecosystem and this team’s goal runs to create and maintain seamless integration of LLVM into rest of Google! In this role, you will lead our Compiler, Runtimes and Toolchains area in close partnership with executive cross-functional team leads. Direct reports are Individual Contributors (ICs) of different levels including a staff engineer/TL. You will work closely with Compiler, Runtimes and Toolchains (CRT) leads and managers at other sites in developing features in the space of LLVM optimization and code generation that support to build scalability, toolchain velocity, peak performance and safety, and improving our core infrastructure and tooling that brings LLVM to Google users through releases and Integrates in an efficient manner.

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.

• Lead, manage, and mentor a team of Software Engineers (SWEs) maintaining an environment of psychological safety with high trust, accountability and exceptional performance.
• Partner with Team Leads (TLs) and the CRT team, in creating the roadmap and strategy for LLVM and rallying the team to execute on those plans and goals.
  
• Support the growth and career development of individuals on the team.
  
• Contribute to the overall health of the CRT team and the Software Foundations organization reducing our maintenance cost by improving the overall efficiency of our releases.
  
• Collaborate with teams to improve LLVM and related technologies, including the production C++ toolchain.
