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 a Compliance Program Manager in Platforms Infrastructure Engineering, you will play a critical role in developing and delivering one of the world’s most advanced computing and AI infrastructure. You will partner closely with engineering teams to ensure products meet global Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), safety, and regulatory standards, enabling successful worldwide product deployments. You will engage early in the product development cycle with various disciplines (e.g., trade compliance, logistics, contract manufacturing, commodity managers, legal, electrical, mechanical, etc.) to integrate compliance requirements into specifications and designs, and collaborate with external test and certification agencies to meet country-specific regulations. Additionally, you will oversee product certification documentation and labeling to ensure readiness for deployment in all target markets.

The ML, Systems, & Cloud AI (MSCA) organization at Google designs, implements, and manages the hardware, software, machine learning, and systems infrastructure for all Google services (Search, YouTube, etc.) and Google Cloud. Our end users are Googlers, Cloud customers and the billions of people who use Google services around the world.

We prioritize security, efficiency, and reliability across everything we do - from developing our latest TPUs to running a global network, while driving towards shaping the future of hyperscale computing. Our global impact spans software and hardware, including Google Cloud’s Vertex AI, the leading AI platform for bringing Gemini models to enterprise customers.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $156,000-$229,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
