The role
From Google's own posting.
Google's software developers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for software developers 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 developer, 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 software developers 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.
Ads Safety is responsible for safeguarding the Google Ads ecosystem. In this mission, we strive to maintain the trust of billions of users worldwide while at the same time protecting $250+ billion in annual revenue.

We strongly believe “the best cure is to prevent” and work with our partners in Ads, Trust & Safety, GBO, and DeepMind to leverage modern machine learning technologies in building innovative solutions to detect risk and establish trust as early as possible.
