Senior Test Engineer, Core

Google is seeking a Senior Test Engineer to join their Core team, which is responsible for building the technical foundation behind Google's flagship products.

The ideal candidate will have strong coding skills, experience in test automation, and the ability to lead technical projects. You'll work in a collaborative environment, participating in product design reviews and contributing to product testability and implementation. This role offers the opportunity to work on critical infrastructure that powers Google's most important products while having a significant impact on product quality and user experience.

The position comes with a competitive compensation package including base salary, bonus, equity, and comprehensive benefits. Google offers a supportive work environment and is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. The role can be based in several locations including Kirkland, WA, Mountain View, CA, or San Jose, CA, providing flexibility for qualified candidates.
