Frontend Developer

About the Role

The Frontend Developer we hire will help Google pay down years of technical debt without anyone calling it a rewrite, using Git sparingly and well. If 1 years of Ruby sits behind you, Google offers $55,000 - $74,000, a hybrid setup, and a ladder worth climbing.

Key Responsibilities

• Enhance test automation frameworks to increase release confidence
• Refactor the technology module Google has been afraid to touch
• Re-architect the technology flow so Ruby handles ten times Grand Island's current load
• Document technical decisions, architecture, and APIs for the broader org
• Translate fuzzy product wishes from Google stakeholders into shippable Ruby services
• Keep Ruby schemas backward-compatible so Google never forces a breaking upgrade

What You'll Bring

• The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
• A knack for Git that colleagues quietly come to rely on
• Sharp written and verbal communication, tested under scrutiny
• Hands-on proficiency with Public Speaking, ideally paired with Terraform
• Willingness to relocate to Grand Island, NE, or to make remote work
• Clarity of thought that shows up in tidy documentation
• The integrity to flag your own mistakes first

At Google, our mission is to make technology simpler, faster, and more accessible for everyone in Grand Island, NE and beyond. At Google you can challenge your skip-level's plan and still get a thank-you for it.

Joining us means $55,000 - $74,000, a clear promotion ladder, paid family leave, and mentors invested in your success.

Open today, open right now, and waiting for the right Frontend Developer.

If Grand Island is where you want to build a career, Google wants to hear from you.
