The Role

We’re looking for someone to build and explore agent CUJs and iterate on them to reach transformative experiences for users.  This will involve engineering spanning from an Android front-end written in Kotlin, with JNI C++ components, to  Python server-side agent orchestration to LLM model inference, as well as integration into various other Google products and services.  It will also involve exploring other surfaces as needed.

Key responsibilities

• Ideate, explore, prototype, and de-risk LLM-based agent capabilities and use cases.
• Build, productionize, and deploy agent experiences spanning device-side front-ends to server back-ends and models. 
• Build platforms and components that enable faster exploration and deployment of these experiences.
• Quantitative and qualitative evaluation of personal agent capabilities and experiences.
