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.

As our products and services scale the globe, the Global Infrastructure and Energy (GIE) team works behind the scenes as a dynamic team within Google responsible for delivering the infrastructure capacity needed to support Google's growing product portfolio. The Supply Strategy and Portfolio Planning (SSP) team within GIE, manage a complex portfolio of infrastructure projects, ensuring that Google's services have the resources they need to operate seamlessly and reliably. SSP performs location strategy and portfolio management to determine where, why, and how much infrastructure assets Google needs to seamlessly scale into the future. We provide the programs, strategies and tool sets for our regional negotiation and execution teams to consistently make high-quality decisions at scale, with less risk to meet the needs of Google’s business.

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.

Google

Google LLC started as a PhD project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1998 at Stanford University. Google LLC has blossomed into a behemoth of the tech world. With its mission to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful, Google’s search engine is its crown jewel. Online advertising, via AdWords and AdSense, forms the backbone of its financial success. Beyond search, Google has ventured into cloud computing, hardware, and software development. The innovative PageRank algorithm revolutionized search engine technology, and surviving the dot-com bubble burst and going public in 2004 spurred its meteoric growth. Acquiring YouTube stands as a testament to Google’s strategic expansion.
