The Platforms and Ecosystems product area encompasses Google's various computing software platforms across environments (desktop, mobile, applications). The products provide enterprises, and ultimately end users, the ability to utilize and manage their services at scale. We build innovative and compelling software products—from apps to TVs, from laptops to phones—that have an impact on people’s lives across the world.
Define technical direction, test strategy, and roadmaps for Pixel modem firmware (5G NR, LTE, NTN/Satellite, IMS/VoNR/VoWiFi, NAS/AS, RF/L1) across global networks and vendors to balance launch targets with platform quality.
Lead distributed engineering and vendor teams through field verification cycles (functional, performance, mobility, reliability, stress, carrier certification) to ensure commercial software quality.
Transition manual testing to scalable, AI-driven automation—modernizing test harnesses, Key Performance Indicator (KPI) collection, cloud data pipelines, and log triage to enhance velocity and cost efficiency.
Lead technical escalations for complex modem/network issues, guiding root-cause analysis of 3GPP protocol/RF traces and driving fixes across Modem software, Systems, RF hardware, and vendors.
