**About the job**:
At Google, our philosophy is build it, break it and then rebuild it better. That thinking is at the core of how we approach testing at Google. Unlike roles with similar names at the other companies, Test Engineers at Google aren't manual testers - you write scripts to automate testing and create tools so developers can test their own code. As a Test Engineer, you navigate Google's massive codebase, identify weak spots and constantly design better and creative ways to break software and identify potential problems. You'll have a huge impact on the quality of Google's growing suite of products and services.

You use your knowledge of testing and testability to influence better software design, promote proper engineering practice, bug prevention strategies, testability, accessibility, privacy, and other advanced quality concepts across products.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.

**Responsibilities**:

- Create test plans and develop test scripts for testing new products, support and improve ongoing production test scripts for engineering deviations, yield improvement, and test time reduction.
- Collaborate closely with product design and firmware engineering during new product bring-up to understand product performance and test metrics with the goal of transitioning to a factory environment.
- Collaborate closely with internal design engineering and external test system integrators on production test fixture and system design and development to ensure good functional test coverage and reproducible results.
- Provide DFX (Design for Manufacturability/Testability) feedback to development community.
- Work with program managers and contract manufacturers to ensure adequate test capability and capacity for engineering and production builds.
