About The Job
As a Software Engineering (SWE) apprentice at Google, you will develop the skills you need to pursue an entry-level career in software engineering.
You will get exposure to a range of different roles across the company including coding, development, testing, and project management. Additionally, you will learn how to apply problem solving skills to real-life challenges, pick up new technical skills such as programming in multiple languages, learn about software testing and other industry practices, and see how software is designed and developed.
The apprenticeship will begin on September 11, 2023 with a 3-week virtual onboarding experience, followed by an immersive 6-week virtual bootcamp with Google's apprenticeship partner, Multiverse, to build a foundational understanding of the profession. Apprentices will then join a Google team to train on-the-job, while continuing to engage in track-specific learnings and career workshops throughout the program. The program may include rotations on 2 teams, and you will be supported day-to-day by a manager for each of them. As a part of the program you’ll receive holistic career readiness support, and towards the end of the program will have the time and space to prepare for your next endeavor.
A typical week in the life of a Google apprentice will require 40 structured hours split between hands-on training and related technical instruction. You’ll follow a hybrid work week, which will involve working approximately 3 days a week in the office, and 2 days from home or nearby - wherever you work best - as you work towards completing the required competencies for your track. You’ll dedicate 1-2 days a week to virtual lessons with our external training provider, such as spotlighting a particular concept or participating in a professional development workshop. Your remaining days are spent gaining practical experience through different projects on your Google team.
This apprenticeship is intended for individuals who want to learn and develop entry-level technical and professional skills in software engineering.
