 Our Operating Principles
 
 
 
 
 
 Extreme Ownership
 
 
 
 
 We take full responsibility for our work, outcomes, and team success. No excuses, no blame-shifting &mdash; if something needs fixing, we own it and make it better. This means stepping up, even when it&rsquo;s not &ldquo;your job.&rdquo; If a ball is dropped, we pick it up. If a customer is unhappy, we fix it. If a process is broken, we redesign it. We don&rsquo;t wait for someone else to solve it &mdash; we lead with accountability and expect the same from those around us.
 
 
 
 
 Craftsmanship
 
 
 
 
 Putting care and intention into every task, striving for excellence, and taking deep ownership of the quality and outcome of your work. Craftsmanship means never settling for &ldquo;just fine.&rdquo; We sweat the details because details compound. Whether it&rsquo;s a product feature, an internal doc, or a sales call &mdash; we treat it as a reflection of our standards. We aim to deliver jaw-dropping customer experiences by being curious, meticulous, and proud of what we build &mdash; even when nobody&rsquo;s watching.
 
 
 
 
 We are &ldquo;majos&rdquo;
 
 
 
 
 Be friendly &amp; have fun with your coworkers. Always be genuine &amp; honest, but kind. &ldquo;Majo&rdquo; is our way of saying: be a good human. Be approachable, helpful, and warm. We&rsquo;re building something ambitious, and it&rsquo;s easier (and more fun) when we enjoy the ride together. We give feedback with kindness, challenge each other with respect, and celebrate wins together without ego.
 
 
 
 
 Urgency with Focus
 
 
 
 
 Create the highest impact in the shortest amount of time. Move fast, but in the right direction. We operate with speed because time is our most limited resource. But speed without focus is chaos. We prioritize ruthlessly, act decisively, and stay aligned. We aim for high leverage: the biggest results from the simplest, smartest actions. We&rsquo;re running a high-speed marathon &mdash; not a sprint with no strategy.
 
 
 
 
 Talent Density and Meritocracy
 
 
 
 
 Hire only people who can raise the average; &lsquo;exceptional performance is the passing grade.&rsquo; Ability trumps seniority. We believe the best teams are built on talent density &mdash; every hire should raise the bar. We reward contribution, not titles or tenure. We give ownership to those who earn it, and we all hold each other to a high standard. A-players want to work with other A-players &mdash; that&rsquo;s how we win.
 
 
 
 
 First-Principles Thinking
 
 
 
 
 Strip a problem to physics-level facts, ignore industry dogma, rebuild the solution from scratch. We don&rsquo;t copy-paste solutions. We go back to basics, ask why things are the way they are, and rebuild from the ground up if needed. This mindset pushes us to innovate, challenge stale assumptions, and move faster than incumbents. It&rsquo;s how we build what others think is impossible

 <li>
 Have hands-on experience with identity platforms, auth/authz systems, or user verification at scale.
 </li>
 <li>
 Have worked on systems with regulatory complexity (e.g., COPPA, GDPR-K, UK OSA, KOSA) or experience navigating legal constraints in product development.
 </li>
 <li>
 Are comfortable owning complex, ambiguous problems end-to-end, learning quickly, and adapting to fast-changing priorities. Can thrive in a cross-functional team, with strong collaboration across policy, research, legal, and product functions.
 </li>
 <li>

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&rsquo;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.

The Cloud Optimize team provides cost and performance optimization to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) customers. To do this we rely on a unique set of data and pipelines from other Cloud Products across GCP. You will help lead the efforts to envision these datasets, join with existing datasets, and provide the data to all first-party and third-party agents who need them. 
Optimization spans cost, performance, and capacity for projects and applications developed on GCP. Our outlook is to help developers autonomously optimize their applications for cost, performance, and capacity. We do this by developing agent skills and tooling for use with Gemini models.
Google Cloud accelerates every organization&rsquo;s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google&rsquo;s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
