About the Role

Software Engineering Managers at Google have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects but also manage a team of Engineers. You optimize your own code and ensure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a Software Engineering Manager, you manage project goals, contribute to product strategy, and help develop your team.

Teams work across various areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, and user interface design. Operating with scale and speed, you guide engineers across multiple teams and locations, manage a large product budget, and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects internationally.

Display and Video 360 (DV360) is Google's Demand Side Platform (DSP) offering, critical to Google's advertising platform for large advertisers and agencies. This role is part of a horizontal infrastructure team responsible for the end-to-end processing, storage, and retrieval of performance, cost, and billing data for ads served through DV360. The team owns log processing, data aggregation and storage, query layer, billing function, metadata synchronization, and reporting user experience.

Google Ads powers the open internet with technology that connects and creates value for people, publishers, advertisers, and Google. The team builds Google’s advertising products, including search, display, shopping, travel, and video advertising, as well as analytics.

• Maintain the query engines (like Qubos, Tangle, and Mars) that retrieve stats efficiently, powering the DV360 UI, Report Builder, and external APIs
• Operate the backend pipelines that calculate billable costs, manage financial reconciliation, and ensure month-end close stability
• Own the tools advertisers use to gather insights, such as Instant Reporting, Offline Reporting, and inline stats widgets throughout the campaign workflow
• Ensure campaign metadata (Advertiser, Line Item, Creative info) is correctly mapped and widened alongside raw performance stats
