ABOUT THE JOB:

its components) and server software (like Google's Linux cluster). You'll also
take on the configuration of more complex components such as networks, routers,
hubs, bridges, switches and networking protocols. You'll participate in or lead
small project teams on larger installations and develop project contingency

Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our

power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable
developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping
the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the
development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking,
Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.

experience, and relevant education or training.
