About the job

As a Principal Developer, Security, you'll own the security of your assigned product portfolio ensuring it enables sustainable business success, with particular focus on delivering security enhancements and future-focused capabilities.

The core measure of success for the role is removal of security risk for broad classes of customers. Building optional/premium security features may form part of the role, but is not the main focus. You will drive major technical, product, or business strategies that have impact beyond adjacent teams, across multiple product areas and common infrastructure, and in partnership with your Cloud Security Lead peers and Cloud CISO. You'll contribute to the development and delivery of security and privacy infrastructure to protect Google networks, systems, and customer data. You will drive forward-thinking and innovative approaches to anticipate and address some of Google's most challenging/deepest or new technical problems and develop solutions where precedent may not exist and the best option may not be clear.

In addition, you'll direct multiple complex workstreams with competing priorities and influence the organization to drive alignment of different strategies in line with operational goals, objectives, product vision, and security roadmap. You'll analyze the risk landscape based on data and strategic industry trends, identify common root-causes for security flaws and vulnerabilities, anticipate patterns over a multi-year horizon, brainstorm/socialize ideas and collaborate in yearly planning, solutioning, designing, and co-implementing a systemic developing fix to these issues.
