Have you guys heard or known anyone working on non SWE positions at Google?
Are they interesting? Trajectory okay? Is comp decent?

    That’s Strategic Cloud Engineer. I had interviewed for SCE and didn’t make it. They forwarded me to a TSE role which I interviewed for again. My research says from a technical standpoint SWE > SCE > TSE and same rule would apply to TC.

    TSE is a support role and SCE is a customer facing role that involves travel. All of them have an E in it so there is a bit of Engineering for sure.

    TSE is a bit of a catch all role, some teams do a lot of coding, others don't. Most of the work is client facing and not internal. For what it's worth all the TSE's I've worked with have been leveled higher than SWEs with the same yoe, so comp ends up being similar.

    TSE is O ladder. Better to join some T ladder position. L4 TSE makes same comp as an L3 SWE fresh out of school with 0 experience.

    I think that seems consistent with what recruiter told me. I saw something about "you can write as little code as you want" which says to me "you don't actually get to code" :/
