About the job

The Enterprise Identity Protection Team manages Identity risks for Alphabet including how we onboard, authenticate and ensure that only the right folks gain access to the sensitive data we manage at Google. That means how we use physical security tokens, badges, trusted platform modules, single sign on, identity verification and biometrics across all our environments, but also with all our Third-party connections including SaaS, Bets and Acquisitions. The work here controls the daily experience of every Googler (and also the daily experience of the many nation state attackers trying to gain access to Google). In addition the team partners with internal teams on hardware development, with external standards bodies on improving them with major vendors on new innovative solutions. This role manages a team that is currently delivering against one of Google's board visible cybersecurity risks.

The Core team builds the technical foundation behind Google’s flagship products. We are owners and advocates for the underlying design elements, developer platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Google. These are the essential building blocks for excellent, safe, and coherent experiences for our users and drive the pace of innovation for every developer. We look across Google’s products to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique opportunity to impact important technical decisions across the company.
