Research Engineer, Agentic Security & Privacy...

• Build post-training data and tools to improve Gemini's security & privacy capabilities across coding, personal assistant, and other agentic capabilities; integrating improvements into latest versions of Gemini.

• Coordinate closely with stakeholders working on Gemini's tool use, coding and other agentic capabilities to ensure security & privacy gains in the model do not impact Gemini's utility.

• Collaborate with other team members to improve our adversarial evaluation (auto-red teaming) techniques and out-of-model guardrails.

• Amplify the impact by generalizing solutions into reusable libraries and frameworks for protecting agents and models across Google, and by sharing knowledge through publications, open source, and education.

At Google, research-focused Software Engineers are embedded throughout the company, allowing them to setup large-scale tests and deploy promising ideas quickly and broadly. Ideas may come from internal projects as well as from collaborations with research programs at partner universities and technical institutes all over the world. From creating experiments and prototyping implementations to designing new architectures, engineers work on real-world problems including artificial intelligence, data mining, natural language processing, hardware and software performance analysis, improving compilers for mobile platforms, as well as core search and much more. But you stay connected to your research roots as an active contributor to the wider research community by partnering with universities and publishing papers. Our mission is to unblock the strongest and most helpful agentic GenAI capabilities in the real world, by making Gemini and other GenAI models as capable as highly experienced privacy and security engineers in handling sensitive user data and permissions. We work to make security and privacy improvements across all aspects of Gemini post-training. Agentic capabilities such as coding (e.g. Antigravity) and personal assistant (e.g. Gemini Spark) are introducing challenging security and privacy problems. Joining an experienced post-training team with a strong record on security and privacy improvements in Gemini, you will be directly responsible for building training data and techniques to ensure our most advanced agents are secure and privacy-respecting, without sacrificing strong, frontier model capabilities. Artificial intelligence will be one of humanity's most transformative inventions. At Google DeepMind, we are a pioneering AI lab with exceptional interdisciplinary teams focused on advancing AI development to solve complex global challenges and accelerate high-quality product innovation for billions of users. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, ensuring safety and ethics are always our highest priority. We are pushing the boundaries across multiple domains. Our global teams offer diverse learning opportunities and varied career pathways for those driven to achieve exceptional results through collective effort.
