Tech Lead / Manager (TLM)

This position is located in Zürich, Switzerland.

We need world-class technical managers to lead the development of the
next generation of Google products. Our engineering team is working on
problems in a number of areas, including cutting-edge information
retrieval algorithms, large-scale cluster computing, systems software,
Java applications, and a variety of novel search products. As a TLM you
lead 6-12 engineers on 2-4 projects and are responsible for all aspects
of these projects (technical success, mentoring and training, project
schedules, code reviews, etc).

This position is *not* a pure management position; TLMs are expected to
contribute technically to their project, and the interview process will
emphasize technical skills and management/organizational skills equally

Requirements:

    * University Degree in Computer Science (Ph.D. a plus).
    * 4+ years of relevant hands-on technical experience with a record
      of strong individual technical achievement.
    * 2+ years of relevant experience leading projects of small to
      moderate size.
    * People management skills, proven track record of mentoring and
      coaching team members
    * Strong C/C++ or Java programming skills.
    * Substantial knowledge of UNIX/Linux or Windows environments.
    * Extensive experience designing and implementing large-scale
      distributed systems, machine learning, information retrieval 
      algorithms, network programming, Linux kernel, and/or large 
      software systems.
    * Enthusiasm for solving interesting problems.
    * Fluency in English (fluency in other European languages a plus).
