You seem to have looked at Google specifically (mention of Docs). Google has substantial engineering presence in several european countries. Just a few cities/countries off the top of my head in no specific order: Munich, Zürich, London, Dublin, Warsaw. There's others, IIRC a bit on Stockholm for example, but I think those I named after among the larger presences. Anyway. Not just Germany.

There's also SRE, which has a slightly different twang on how we spend our time and then interview makeup.

For what it's worth, I'm not a computer science grad at all and I'm doing just fine at Google. Got hired as a senior manager, though, so YMMV.

Not trying to convince you of anything, just trying to be helpful. :)
