Personnel: Noam Shazeer at Google / Alphabet (Principal Engineer)

Verdictpartial95%
1 check · 4/9/2026

The source confirms the person (Noam Shazeer), organization (Google/Alphabet), start date (2000), and end date (2021) for his first tenure. However, the source does not mention the specific job title 'Principal Engineer' for this period. The source describes his role in general terms (joining Google, working on spelling corrector, co-authoring the Transformer paper, building Meena chatbot) but never explicitly states 'Principal Engineer' as his title. This is a partial confirmation—the employment dates and organization are verified, but the specific role title is unverifiable from the source text.
