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 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'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.

Want to shape the future of how Google serves its most advanced Large Language Models? Join the GDC AI Models and Performance team and work on AI infrastructure.

Imagine re-inventing LLM serving by contributing to our disaggregated serving initiatives - separating compute and memory to unlock new levels of performance and flexibility. You could be optimizing Key-Value (KV) cache transfer mechanisms, designing dynamic resource allocation strategies, or building the next generation of performance analysis tools to dissect and enhance GPU utilization. This is a unique opportunity to go deep, from system-level design down to performance profiling, ensuring Google's LLMs run faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $207,000-$300,000 bonus equity benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

Please note that the compensation details listed in US role postings reflect the base salary only, and do not include bonus, equity, or benefits. Learn more about benefits at Google.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and implement enhancements to the LLM serving stack, focusing on performance, scalability, and resource efficiency (e.g., on systems like Wiz, Servomatic).
• Contribute to the design and implementation of advanced serving architectures, including disaggregated serving.
• Build and maintain infrastructure and tooling for in-depth performance analysis, profiling, and benchmarking of LLM models on GPU accelerators.
• Identify and address performance bottlenecks across the stack, working closely with teams providing core GPU libraries and kernels.
• Collaborate with research, engineering, and SRE teams to optimize and deploy LLMs in production.
