About the job

At Google, our philosophy is build it, break it and then rebuild it better. That thinking is at the core of how we approach testing at Google. Unlike roles with similar names at the other companies, Test Engineers at Google aren't manual testers -- you write scripts to automate testing and create tools so developers can test their own code. As a Test Engineer, you navigate Google's massive codebase, identify weak spots and constantly design better and creative ways to break software and identify potential problems. You'll have a huge impact on the quality of Google's growing suite of products and services.

You use your knowledge of testing and testability to influence better software design, promote proper engineering practice, bug prevention strategies, testability, accessibility, privacy, and other advanced quality concepts across products.

In this role, you will assist in developing tests/automations/infra/processes to effectively and efficiently verify Google's security, privacy IPs, and features on Pixel phones and other mobile products in scale. You will build strong firsthand security knowledge of Pixel vertically from SoC, system software, and framework to the upper layer apps. You will work with multiple development teams and Android security teams across different regional offices (e.g., Mountain View, London, Taipei).

The Google Pixel team focuses on designing and delivering the world's most helpful mobile experience. The team works on shaping the future of Pixel devices and services through some of the most advanced designs, techniques, products, and experiences in consumer electronics. This includes bringing together the best of Google’s artificial intelligence, software, and hardware to build global smartphones and create transformative experiences for users across the world.

Responsibilities

• Design, create, modify and execute test plans and tests for hardware and software validation at both system and user level and drive to improve software quality assurance processes and methodologies.
• Analyze and decompose software systems and collaborate with and influence others to improve the overall design.
• Investigate Google mobile products' new security IPs and features ranging from SoC, system software, and framework to apps. Generate effective and efficient test plans.
• Develop scalable and reliable automated tests and frameworks for testing embedded hardware devices.
