Software Engineering Managers have not only the technical expertise to take on and provide technical leadership to major projects, but also manage a team of Engineers. You not only optimize your own code but make sure Engineers are able to optimize theirs. As a Software Engineering Manager you manage your project goals, contribute to product strategy and help develop your team. Teams work all across the company, in areas such as information retrieval, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, security, data compression, user interface design; the list goes on and is growing every day. Operating with scale and speed, our exceptional software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way. With technical and leadership expertise, you manage engineers across multiple teams and locations, a large product budget and oversee the deployment of large-scale projects across multiple sites internationally. As a part of the Shorts Creation Infrastructure team, your mission is to build the horizontal infrastructure that powers media generation (video/audio/image) and Shorts creation on YouTube. The product surfaces we serve include Shorts Creation, Effects, Posts, and YouTube Studio. In this role you will be responsible for the team and backend infrastructure that powers Remix features (both AI and non-AI) in YouTube. You will also partner with Shorts Discovery to drive Shorts Creation. Success in this role requires a technically deep empathetic leader who can work across multiple tech stacks, teams, and cross-functional stakeholders.At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we address, share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process. Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. ### US $207000 - $300000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits Learn more about benefits at Google. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Not stated - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 13, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 23, 2026 - Listed for: 10 days - Location: San Bruno, CA, USA[Apply on Alphabet’s careers site →](https://www.google.com/about/careers/applications/jobs/results/106795035642471110-software-engineer-manager-shorts-creation-infra-youtube) ## More jobs at Alphabet ### [Senior Software Engineer Manager, YouTube Main App, Mobile](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/565ccb4213bf2c7834d9/) San Bruno, CA, USA ### [Senior Software Engineer, Infrastructure, YouTube](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/f4198ef6058e98375e05/) San Bruno, CA, USA ### [Senior Software Engineer, Mobile (iOS), YouTube](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/486ac108a04f44a27545/) San Bruno, CA, USA ### [Software Engineer III, Mobile (Android), YouTube](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/e7fdddb2af4cde3247da/) San Bruno, CA, USA ### [Staff Applied ML Software Engineer, Recommendations, YouTube](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/e2d3dac0294d5f0f3bdb/) San Bruno, CA, USA ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Value Creation Lead](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/microsoft/jobs/af20065ff66cede5ebc9/) Microsoft · United States, Multiple Locations ### [Software Engineer/Sr. Software Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/microsoft/jobs/194f63de625f0dce008e/) Microsoft · United States, Washington, Redmond ### [Software and Data Engineer - Software Engineer III- Agentic Pricing](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/jpmorganchase/jobs/1adbc421af4b64b8e0c5/) JPMorganChase · Jersey City, NJ, United States ### [Chief Engineer, AI Product Creation](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/ford-motor/jobs/32ac9ed0cde8adca7d90/) Ford Motor · Dearborn, MI, United States ### [Software Developer/Software Engineer in Test](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/general-dynamics/jobs/229bce1af89aceaed99c/) General Dynamics · Falls Church, VA, US OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
