In this role, you will be focused on building and scaling the fundamental data layers of our map products. This includes maintaining a fresh and accurate core road network or delivering safety and driver-assistance attributes. These data products power critical use cases ranging from foundational routing and consumer navigation to advanced automotive features like adaptive cruise control for Auto OEM partners.
As a part of this role, you will take on critical short and long-term deliverables, where you will get to learn a lot about the geospatial market and how to build data that scales.
The Geo team is focused on building the most accurate, comprehensive, and useful maps for our users, through products like Maps, Earth, Street View, Google Maps Platform, and more. Every month, more than a billion people rely on Maps services to explore the world and navigate their daily lives.
