  • About the job

    At Google, we follow a simple but vital premise : "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Google's UX Engineers are versatile and passionate about taking on new problems to drive progress and vision for design teams. They're comfortable wearing many hats and get excited about working across discipline lines to develop products and prototypes that bring new ideas to life.

    Google User Experience (UX) is made up of multi-disciplinary teams of UX Designers, Researchers, Writers, Content Strategists, Program Managers, and Engineers : we care deeply about the people who use our products. The UX team plays an integral part in gathering insights about the attitudes, emotions, and behaviors of people who use our products to inspire and inform design. We collaborate closely with each other and with engineering and product management to create industry-leading products that deliver value for the people who use them, and for Google's businesses.

    As a UX Engineer, you'll work as part of a UX team in a challenging, fast-paced environment. You'll demonstrate your creativity, analytical skills, and knowledge of user facing technologies to create prototypes that identify the best product experiences, launch innovative features, build tools that accelerate UX teams, bridge between design and engineering discussions, and enable efficient, high quality execution.

    Imagine future-looking GenAI experiences for YouTube's viewers, creators, artists, and advertisers. We work horizontally across YouTube, partnering with cross-functional product teams to help explore bold ideas that help teams see around corners and make big bets on the future of Generative AI and YouTube.

    Google Cloud accelerates every organization's ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google's cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.

    The US base salary range for this full-time position is $151,000-$222,000 bonus equity benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

    Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with a cross-functional team of designers, researchers, and product managers to conceptualize and rapidly build a wide range of interactive prototypes-from low-fidelity explorations to more robust, internally scalable versions.
  • Partner closely with UX Researchers to put prototypes in front of users, using feedback to challenge assumptions, validate ideas, and iteratively steer the development of new experiences.
  • Identify opportunities and build AI-powered internal tools that enhance creativity, streamline workflows, and scale the impact of our UX teams.
  • Stay at the forefront of the latest developments in generative AI models and technologies, and actively investigate how they can be applied to solve user problems and unlock new opportunities for YouTube.
  • Partner with product and engineering teams to translate futuristic concepts into actionable steps, influencing product roadmaps and strategic decisions.
  • Information collected and processed as part of your Google Careers profile, and any job applications you choose to submit is subject to Google's Applicant and Candidate Privacy Policy .
