The Warsaw engineering center will be twice as large, and for the first time, it will be headed by such a high-ranking manager: vice president of the IT giant.
Google's cloud, in which the total expenditure on infrastructure, educational programs, and support for companies is estimated at $2 billion, is fast approaching, and with it further investments of the concern. The Google Cloud region, i.e. the local computing infrastructure, will be launched on April 14. On Monday, the giant announced that it will create a team in its Wrocław office (it employs 100 people) that will implement cloud services for the largest clients in Europe. Its second office in Poland will also be increased – an engineering center in Warsaw. In addition, it will be headed by Dan Decasper, who also took the position of vice president of Google. There was no Polish branch with the head of such a highly placed manager.
"The expansion of the Warsaw office is a priority for us, as many of our most important products and technologies are already being built here, which are used by the world's largest Google Cloud customers," Dan Decasper said.
"I have decided to join Google because I am extremely excited to work with such a great team in Warsaw, with whom we will jointly develop the largest Google Cloud engineering center in Europe," he added.
As many as 450 people out of 600 employees working in Warsaw are employed in the center.
