Well, you could get in Google without knowing any math, as long as you pass the interview full of traditional algorithm questions. Then you may get matched with a team who does ML work, if you have the resume for it. (This doesn't work if you want to be a research scientist at Google, though). But I won't recommend such approach. ML almost never works on the first try. But it is unique among computer science in that many errors cannot be found by tests. You will just get a lower accuracy score, with no idea why. Without a deep understanding of the theory, you will have a hard time debugging.
