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 Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish — working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.

As the Program Manager, you will lead deployment of new ML product introductions from concept to production. You will maximize the impact and efficiency of new product introductions to the data centers within the ML space, navigate among conflicting requirements and objectives across a wide range of cross-functional organizations, and provide leadership that results in positive outcomes for Google and its users. You will be responsible for explaining the team's analyses and recommendations to executives as well as discussing the technical trade-offs in product development with design engineers.

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.
