The Google Augmented Reality team is a group of experts tasked with
building the foundations for great immersive computing and building
helpful, delightful user experiences. We're focused on making immersive computing accessible to billions of people through mobile devices, and our scope continues to grow and evolve.Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
