Senior Software Engineer, Audio, Google Beam
Location: San Francisco, CA, USA; Mountain View, CA, USA.
Level Mid
Experience driving progress, solving problems, and mentoring more junior team members; deeper expertise and applied knowledge within relevant area.
Salary US base salary range for this full‑time position is
$166,000–$244,000
+ bonus + equity + benefits.
Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
5 years of experience with software development in C++.
3 years of experience testing, maintaining, or launching software products, and 1 year of experience with software design and architecture.
Experience with real‑time audio subsystem design, implementation, or validation.
Experience working with embedded systems or low‑level software development (e.g., OS, drivers, firmware).
Preferred qualifications
Master’s degree or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Acoustics, or related technical field.
5 years of experience with digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm design (e.g., 3D spatialized audio, reverberation/noise mitigation, acoustic echo cancellation).
1 year of experience in a technical leadership role, driving audio roadmaps or hardware selection in the presence of ambiguity.
Experience with embedded platforms (ARM, DSP), including build toolchains, hardware I/O, control, and low‑level software development (embedded Linux, audio drivers).
Experience developing accessible technologies, human‑centric communication tools, or applying psychoacoustics (hearing science) to product design.
Experience with data structures and algorithms.
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 manage information at a 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, data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design, and mobile. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as our fast‑paced business grows and evolves. You will be versatile, display leadership qualities, and be enthusiastic to tackle new problems across the full stack as we continue to push technology forward.
Responsibilities
Develop and test product or system development code, specifically designing low‑latency C++ algorithms for real‑time audio subsystems on embedded platforms.
Lead or participate in design reviews to drive architectural decisions for audio pipelines, influencing the selection of next‑generation DSPs, ARM processors, and acoustic hardware components.
Review code developed by other developers to ensure strict adherence to real‑time performance constraints, memory optimization in embedded Linux environments, and signal processing accuracy.
Contribute to existing documentation by defining audio‑specific integration guides and “Audio Ops” playbooks, and adapt content based on new psychoacoustic research or hearing science principles.
Triage product or system issues and resolve acoustic artifacts (echo, noise, sync issues), utilizing acoustic measurements to analyze the interaction between software algorithms and hardware limitations.
EEO Statement Google is proud to be an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer. We are committed to building a workforce that is representative of the users we serve and to creating a culture of belonging. We provide an equal employment opportunity regardless of race, creed, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, disability, age, genetic information, veteran status, marital status, pregnancy or related condition (including breastfeeding), or any other basis protected by law.
