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 Google Technical/Program Manager, you will lead network deployment projects from design to implementation. Through collaboration with cross-functional partners, you will capture project requirements and maintain ownership throughout the project lifecycle. This encompasses managing project timelines, identifying risks, and communicating effectively with all the stakeholders.

Your responsibilities will span multiple locations, and time zones, and you will ensure that all parties involved remain aligned with the project's progress and timelines.

The Data Center team designs and operates some of the most sophisticated electrical and HVAC systems in the world. We are an upbeat, creative, team-oriented group of engineers committed to building and operating powerful data centers.
