performance. The team sustains and improves Google's codebase
through static analysis, by making large scale changes, and by
authoring best practices.The Core team builds the technical
foundation behind Google’s flagship products. We are owners and
advocates for the underlying design elements, developer platforms,
product components, and infrastructure at Google. These are the

solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing
systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique
