About the role

Headquartered in Mountain View with teams across the US, India, Canada, and the UK.
The AI Labs team operates as a startup within the company.
Someone who can recruit a world-class team in Mountain View, set the technical direction for agentic AI in commerce, and ship at a pace that matches the opportunity.

Build the Future of Commerce AI
Architect and evolve the platform for the agentic era. The technical foundation needs to support agents that operate autonomously across content, media, and sales. You will decide what gets built, how it gets built, and what gets thrown away.
We already lead most companies in AI code contribution.
Ship AI agents into production with speed and reliability. Our agents are already in Fortune 100 workflows and scaling fast. Engineering needs to deliver new capabilities on a weekly cadence.
Recruit and retain world-class engineering talent, starting with Mountain View. You will be measured on the quality of people you bring in and the quality of people you develop.
Build a strong engineering leadership bench. We need senior leaders who can independently own large surface areas and represent engineering with authority across the company.
Create an environment where the best engineers want to stay, grow, and recruit their friends. Every hire should raise the average.
Own Engineering Execution
Own product quality, infrastructure efficiency, and engineering velocity. You set the metrics, you hit them.
Drive continuous improvement in margins and cost structure. We have already made dramatic improvements in infra costs and product reliability. You will own the next chapter.

You have built and scaled engineering teams.
You have taken a team from good to great.
Ideally you have done this at a pre-IPO company scaling through a similar inflection point.
You are technical and hands-on.
You do not need to write code every day, but you need to be able to tell when code is good and when it is not.
You are AI-native.
You personally use AI development tools.
You have opinions about LLM orchestration, agent architectures, and how AI changes the software development lifecycle.

Full medical, dental, vision.
Unlimited PTO.

The company has product-market fit, revenue, and customers.
We are rebuilding the entire platform around autonomous agents.
We are at a stage where senior hires still get meaningful ownership.
