About the job

A problem isn’t truly solved until it’s solved for all. That’s why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you’ll use your technical expertise to lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish. You will work with stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks, manage project schedules, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. You are equally comfortable explaining your team's analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical tradeoffs in product development with engineers.

Our goal is to build a Google that looks like the world around us — and we want Googlers to stay and grow when they join us. As part of our efforts to build a Google for everyone, we build diversity, equity, and inclusion into our work and we aim to cultivate a sense of belonging throughout the company.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

Responsibilities

Deliver cross-functional projects that include large software components for managing Google’s Global network.
Align team members and stakeholders, communicate and keep stakeholders appraised of progress through periodic updates and checkpoints such as engineering reviews.
Use technical judgment to motivate project delivery, technology reviews, guide technical proposals and build consensus among cross-functional teams.
Set project success criteria, create measurable milestones, track deliverables and deliver customer value incrementally. Measure, analyze and optimize constantly to velocity, quality and efficiency of projects.
Identify and implement process improvements, and help program teams scale. Work on Google’s ability to deliver network capacity on-time, with availability while achieving maximum efficiency.
