Google is seeking a Staff Software Engineer for the Pixel Rapid Prototyping team in San Francisco, California. This on-site role focuses on leading the zero-to-one development of high-fidelity prototypes that explore next-generation user experiences at the intersection of software, hardware, and UX. You will architect end-to-end Pixel experiences, including Android applications, system services, and framework modifications, and set the technical strategy to maximize iteration speed while establishing boundaries for eventual productionization. You will partner with UX Research, Product Management, and Hardware Engineering to translate ambiguous product concepts into prototypes that demonstrate value. You will analyze and integrate technologies such as on-device AI/ML models, new sensors, and advanced hardware features into prototypes, and present technical findings to senior leadership to influence the Pixel software and hardware roadmap. Android powers more than 3 billion devices worldwide, and Google seeks to provide access to the best computing, enabling opportunity, productivity, and connectivity for people everywhere. This role requires strong software design and architecture skills, hands-on prototyping experience, and the ability to lead technically in a dynamic, cross-functional environment.
