Security Engineering Manager, Threat Analysis Group

About the job

There’s no such thing as a "safe system" - only safer systems. Our Security team works to create and maintain the safest operating environment for Google’s users and developers. As a Security Engineer, you help protect network boundaries, keep computer systems and network devices hardened against attacks and provide security services to protect highly sensitive data like passwords and customer information. Security Engineers work hands-on with network equipment and actively monitor our systems for attacks and intrusions. You also work with software engineers to proactively identify and fix security flaws and vulnerabilities.

You are a recognized expert in at least two security domains and use your leadership skills to manage a team that sets the direction and goals for solving Google-wide problems. You identify fundamental security problems at Google and drives major security improvements in Google infrastructure.

As the lead of the Threat Analysis Group for Europe, you will manage a team of software engineers and security engineers. The team produces threat intelligence to internal partner teams (Account Security, Android, Safe Browsing, Detection & Response, Cloud, and others). You will work with these teams to make sure that the analysis products are timely and actionable. Depending on your skills and preference, you will have a chance to directly contribute to the engineering or analysis work to support the team mission.
