About the job:

Google Workspace is a smart, simple, and secure suite of productivity apps—including Gmail, Docs, Drive, Calendar, Sheets, Meet, and Chat. Designed to simplify workflows and boost team productivity, Workspace features real-time collaboration at its core, allowing information to flow freely across devices and teams so that great ideas are never lost.

We empower Workspace with AI, guiding products like Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Meet, Chat, and beyond to become truly intelligent. We deliver actionable insights, define the critical metrics, and measure quality, pinpointing the highest-impact opportunities for the entire organization.

As a Staff/Senior Staff Product Data Scientist on the Workspace GenAI Foundations team, you will act as a technical leader and strategic advisor at the intersection of product strategy, model evaluation, and data architecture across our horizontal AI pillars—spanning Agentic Ecosystems, AI Platform, Workspace Intelligence, and Abuse & Safety Protections. Partnering closely with senior Product, Engineering, and Research leaders across Workspace and DeepMind, you will pioneer the measurement frameworks, experimentation methodologies, and foundational data pipelines that shape AI-powered productivity and agentic experiences for over 3 billion users.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
