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’ll work with stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks, manage project schedules, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. You're 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.

We are looking for a Technical Program Manager (TPM) to join the Networking Site Reliability Engineering TPM group. The Networking SRE TPM is responsible for delivering a reliable global network infrastructure, while also reliably scaling our software and services for all our customers, specifically Cloud. Our team’s T/PgMs focus on driving initiatives that span both product and reliability, and delivery of cross-team, high priority, and critical programs efficiently. In this role you will be responsible for programs that design, develop or manage policies and systems to improve the reliability of Google’s production networks.

Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $142,000-$211,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target salaries for the position across all US locations.

Drive planning and execution, roadmaps, projects, Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) while coordinating projects across Networking SRE partners and development teams.
Lead stakeholder management and communication with executive leadership.
