How weird. At first I thought it was just a head-hunter working on
behalf of Google, but it looks like he's claiming he's got a
google.com email address. But then I saw the "PS"  part:

So now my guess is that this is an attempt at getting you to sign up
with what will essentially be a head-hunger at linkedin.com, and the
rest is essentially a ruse. (I bet the google jobs exist, but that the
sender wasn't the guy from Google.)

In any case, I would hold off on applying until Google advertises
openings requiring expertise in vector-valued function spaces or
measure theory or the Navier-Stokes equation. Those are the people who
get paid the big bucks. :-)
