Inside The Product

Summary

DeepMind is staffing broadly to develop, productize, and scale Gemini-era AI products—covering model capabilities, user-facing assistants, and platform-quality systems. Hiring spans product design, engineering, infrastructure, hardware, security, and people operations to ship reliable, safe, and usable generative-AI experiences.

What They Build

LLM product development (Gemini): coding capabilities, assistant features, app response quality
AI-driven user experiences: conversational and multi-platform interaction design and prototyping
Quality, safety, and evaluation: response quality pipelines and safety-sensitive frameworks
Infrastructure and systems: data engineering, hardware design/verification, and cybersecurity to run and protect AI services
People and operations: HR, talent acquisition, and program/process scaling to support rapid growth

Customers & Users

End users of Gemini-powered consumer and productivity applications across web, desktop, and mobile platforms
Internal cross-functional stakeholders (Product, Engineering, Research, UX, Trust & Safety) who consume model capabilities and tooling
Regional employees and leaders supported by People & Culture and P&C partners

Workflows & Systems

Cross-functional collaboration between PMs, engineers, UX researchers, data scientists, and trust & safety to define and ship features
Strategic program management: scoping undefined technical programs, building governance, and balancing near-term deliverables with long-term model goals
Iterative, user-centered design cycles: rapid prototyping, user research, behavioral-data-informed design and validation
Quality and safety workflows: engineering-owned response quality efforts, model evaluation, and safety framework development
Operational scaling: architecting repeatable UX ops, talent acquisition strategies, and localized HR processes/compliance
