About the job

As an organization, Google maintains a portfolio of research projects driven by fundamental research, new product innovation, product contribution and infrastructure goals, while providing individuals and teams the freedom to emphasize specific types of work. As a Research Scientist, you'll setup large-scale tests and deploy promising ideas quickly and broadly, managing deadlines and deliverables while applying the latest theories to develop new and improved products, processes, or technologies. From creating experiments and prototyping implementations to designing new architectures, our research scientists work on real-world problems that span the breadth of computer science, such as machine (and deep) learning, data mining, natural language processing, hardware and software performance analysis, improving compilers for mobile platforms, as well as core search and much more.

As a Research Scientist, you'll also actively contribute to the wider research community by sharing and publishing your findings, with ideas inspired by internal projects as well as from collaborations with research programs at partner universities and technical institutes all over the world.

Join a team of research scientists and engineers that are managing real world problems for Google to help AI transform the world!

The team tackles AI research challenges motivated by Google's mission to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. We focus on solve grand scientific and engineering challenges in science, systems, and infrastructure via AI, foundation models, and agentic solutions. We work on a range of high-impact problems with the goal of maximizing both scientific and real-world impact – both pushing the state-of-the-art in AI in top venues and collaborating across teams to bring innovations to production.

Responsibilities

• Author research papers to share and generate impact of research results across organization and in the research community.
• Assist in research growth by sharing research trends and best practices within the community by reviewing academic papers, and serving on program committees and grant panels.
• Deliver on large portions of a project by defining the data structure, framework, design, and evaluation metrics for research solution development and implementation. Identify timelines and obtain resources needed.
• Identify new and upcoming research areas by interacting with potential external and internal collaborators. Develop long-term research strategy and plans to expand the impact of Google research.
• Identify complex but defined problems/gaps in existing technology and engage stakeholders and leaders to address them.
