Google is seeking an Associate Android Auto Partner Engineer to join their team in Seoul, South Korea, as part of their gReach Program - a specialized one-year upskilling initiative for people with disabilities. This role sits at the intersection of automotive innovation and technology, working on Android Auto systems that are reshaping the future of in-vehicle experiences.
The position involves collaborating with vehicle manufacturers to develop and implement Android-powered navigation, entertainment, and communication systems. You'll be working with cross-functional teams across Android Automotive, Maps, Google Assistant, and Google Play, developing tools and solutions that enable automakers to leverage Google's technology effectively.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their career who has strong technical foundations in software development and an interest in the automotive industry. The role requires both technical expertise in programming languages like Java or Python, and strong communication skills as you'll be managing partner relationships and providing technical guidance to Korean partners.
As part of Google's commitment to diversity and inclusion, this position is exclusively for individuals who have or are in the process of obtaining a government-issued disability certificate. The role offers hands-on experience in a rapidly evolving industry, with Google executives noting more anticipated change in the automotive sector in the next 5 years than in the previous 50.
The ideal candidate will combine technical capabilities with partnership management skills, bringing fresh perspectives to help shape the future of automotive technology while receiving mentorship and professional development support through the gReach Program.
