About the job

Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another.

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 Googles 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.

By combining highly innovative data collection hardware and software solutions with extremely easy-to-use merchant interfaces, Pointy offers a method for local brick-and-mortar merchants to make their inventory visible online via both organic and paid channels.
