Software Engineer III, AI/ML, Account Structure Intelligence

Google's software engineers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. 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 Google’s 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.

The Account Structure Intelligence (ASI) team’s mission is to simplify the advertiser experience by transforming complex account management into an automated, AI-ready framework, empowering advertisers to capture all high-value traffic with minimal manual input.

On the ASI team, you will design and build the core LLM-powered extraction engine responsible for processing advertiser URLs. You will bridge advanced Generative AI and large-scale data infrastructure to parse unstructured web pages into structured, queryable inventory representations.

In this role, you will take ownership of end-to-end extraction workflows—from model exploration, training, and fine-tuning to building high-throughput batch and near-line production pipelines. You will collaborate with partner teams and fellow engineers to turn raw web content into high-fidelity signals that power customized ad creatives and landing page experiences across the entire Ads ecosystem.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
