About the job
Like Google's own ambitions, the work of a Software Engineer goes beyond just Search. Software Engineering Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of Engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a Software Engineering Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. Teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way.
With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally.
The YouTube Music Integrations team is responsible for bringing a seamless, high-quality music experience to users across a broad ecosystem of hardware and software products. We build and maintain the applications and services that power YouTube Music on various types of partner devices, including wearables, automotive, smart speakers, and many more. Our mission is to ensure users can access their music wherever they expect it to be available, to build brand awareness and understanding with every integration, and to drive YouTube Music acquisition.
At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process. Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.
Responsibilities
- Align strategy, processes, and decision-making across teams. Lead the development of music experiences on different categories of devices, driving efficiency and innovation at scale.
- Set clear expectations with individuals based on their level and role and aligned to the broader organization's goals. Meet regularly with individuals to discuss performance and development and provide feedback and coaching.
- Drive the execution and delivery of our roadmap and the overall metric growth goal. Evolve the roadmap to meet anticipated future requirements and infrastructure needs.
- Architect and oversee the development of scalable systems, tools and processes for first-party and second-party integrations. Write product or system development code to solve ambiguous problems.
- Review code developed by other engineers and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., style guidelines, checking code in, accuracy, testability, and efficiency).
