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.

This team operates with a startup mentality, managing the company’s earliest and most exciting AI technologies, including breakout hits like MusicLM, ImageFx, Veo, and our latest launch, Google Flow.

As a Front-End Software Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in the technical transformation of Google Flow, a professional-grade tool that empowers creators to generate high-quality video content using GenAI. You will be responsible for rewriting the core application from a custom React stack to a modern Google3/Angular architecture, ensuring the product is scalable, performant, and ready for deep ecosystem integrations.

Labs is a group focused on incubating early-stage efforts in support of Google’s mission to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team exists to help discover and create new ways to advance our core products through exploration and the application of new technologies.
