Our remit extends across all internal Google Cloud developers and adjacent teams, ensuring they have the technical proficiency and innovative mindset to build the world’s most reliable and performant cloud infrastructure and products.
GET is leading the charge in enablement across technical domains. This role sits within the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) organization, bridging the gap between deep systems infrastructure, Cloud product development, and the future of AI-driven engineering. We focus on breaking down complex problems into manageable areas, such as the andragogical and heutagogical approaches to teaching AI, amplifying adoption through scalable mechanisms, and embedding AI tools directly into existing learning experiences.
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.
