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.

Responsibilities

Collaborate with internal and cross-functional networking technical teams to identify and define initiatives necessary to meet Google's network infrastructure needs for both expansion and cost optimisation across Asia.
Present network plans for approval by all internal stakeholders. Complexity will range from short-term metro augments to long-term region-wide strategies for Google networks in Asia.
Project manage the approved network plan with internal contributors such as network negotiators or vendor delivery managers to ensure infrastructure is delivered on-time.
Partner with cross-functional teams to define and improve business processes to enable automation, reduce lead time and manage changes.
Partner with network negotiators in planning and execution of orders and agreements, and in vendors meetings and industry conferences.
