Am I thinking using a service account is roughly like running things on borg as
a group rather than as a user?  If so, how do we tell it which service account
to use?

There's a service account associated with the cloud console project 

  https://console.developers.google.com/project/31977622648

As long as you create a VM instance with bigquery enabled then the service
account credentials will have access to bigquery. There is an account name
associated with that client you can lookup at the link above, but you don't need
to know that when using the service account, the metadata server keeps track of
that. Details here:
