"Would Google hire a "plateaued" senior SWE for a senior SWE role?"
Sure.
I've done it. I have hired senior swes who are happy being senior swe's, for a variety of reasons.
As long as they can actually maintain a minimum level of performance at that level, SGTM.
"Would you hire this same person?"
Yes.
The bar is basically set at the point they aren't serious overhead to others, can figure out what needs to get done, and get it done.

Anything over that is just gravy.
