Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for engineers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software engineer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our engineers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward. With your technical expertise you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions. As a part of this team, you will own the optimization of the models powering the YouTube algorithm. Your work will focus on model efficiency optimization, such as low-precision quantization, knowledge distillation, parameter sharing, and designing hardware-friendly model architectures, to reduce training and serving costs while maximizing fleet utilization and value delivered to users. You will build support and optimize new and existing models in our Recommendation System stack, including new model architectures while adapting to next-generation TPU hardware. You will engage in model and TPU compiler co-design, with opportunities to work across the stack ranging from end-user ML models down to Hardware/Software architecture. At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we 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 $147000 - $210000 (USD) + 15% 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 13, 2026 - Listed for: Under a day - Location: Mountain View, CA, USA[Apply on Alphabet’s careers site →](https://www.google.com/about/careers/applications/jobs/results/127282476320989894-software-engineer-iii-aiml-tpu-efficiency-youtube) ## More jobs at Alphabet ### [Director, Software Engineering, Search Logs Data Platform](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/625f7ed84291403b68b6/) Mountain View, CA, USA ### [Machine Learning Staff Software Engineer, Pixel Camera](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/115fb183996d1aa33ca1/) Mountain View, CA, USA ### [Photos Mission Tech Lead, Applied AI, Full Stack](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/db16915485c08aaef336/) Mountain View, CA, USA ### [Play and Developer Ecosystem Strategy Lead](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/04961a92863cd0e34c96/) Mountain View, CA, USA ### [Product Manager II, Watch Software, Consumer and Developer Communications Experiences](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/408f393be7a96a10a892/) Mountain View, CA, USA ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Software and Data Engineer - Software Engineer III- Agentic Pricing](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/jpmorganchase/jobs/1adbc421af4b64b8e0c5/) JPMorganChase · Jersey City, NJ, United States ### [Software Engineer III - Data Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/jpmorganchase/jobs/3284709853a301a4ea54/) JPMorganChase · Plano, TX, United States ### [Software Engineer III](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/97e192d77891f49190b3/) Lockheed Martin · Littleton, CO ### [Software Engineer III](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/genuine-parts/jobs/e2c7473ca9faf7b33158/) Genuine Parts · Birmingham, AL OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
