Software Developer III, Android XR

## Responsibilities - Design and develop software for measuring and maintaining calibration on Android XR headsets. This includes both factory calibration tools and runtime Android services that deliver, adjust, and maintain calibration data. - Build components of the Android XR operating system in C++, Rust, and Java. - Collaborate closely with both hardware and software teams on solving cross-functional problems to deliver the best possible experience for users of Android XR. - Understand the physics of Android XR headsets and smartglasses and write software that accounts for physical hardware variability across products and devices. - Use AI-based tools to accelerate development of calibration software. ## Requirements - Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience. - 2 years of experience with software development in one or more programming languages (e.g., C++ and Python), or 1 year of experience with an advanced degree. - Experience in computer vision, graphics, or machine learning, or computational imaging. - Experience working with hardware devices. ## Nice to Have - Master's degree or PhD in Computer Science or related technical fields. - 2 years of experience with data structures and algorithms. - Experience working on Android OS below the application level. - Experience working with factory calibration processes. - Experience with online state estimation algorithms (e.g., Kalman filters). ## About the job Google's software developers develop the next-generation technologies that change how billions of users connect, explore, and interact with information and one another. Our products need to handle information at massive scale, and extend well beyond web search. We're looking for software developers who bring fresh ideas from all areas, including information retrieval, distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking and data storage, security, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, UI design and mobile; the list goes on and is growing every day. As a software developer, you will work on a specific project critical to Google’s needs with opportunities to switch teams and projects as you and our fast-paced business grow and evolve. We need our software developers to be versatile, display leadership qualities and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward. With your technical expertise you will manage project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions. The Calibration and System Test team is responsible for building both factory software for measuring Android XR devices and the Android XR Calibration Service, a component of Android created specifically for Android XR that delivers calibration data about the sensors, cameras, and displays of head-mounted devices to the perception services that need it. We are responsible for ensuring the quality of that data remains high even as devices age and change with time. For decades, the computing revolution has reshaped our world driven by breakthroughs in compute, connectivity, mobile, and now, AI. Google's XR team is at the forefront of the next major leap – the convergence of AI and XR. This is more than just new devices – it's about reimagining how we interact with the world around us. We're building a future where lightweight XR devices like smart glasses and headsets pair with helpful AI to augment human intelligence, offering personalized, conversational, and contextually aware experiences.
