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

• Execute scope for cross-functional product development of new products and programs to address undefined challenges with limited guidance.
  
• Lead products through the product life-cycle process (e.g., concept, development, launch) driving scope, schedule, cost, and resource management, using existing processes.
  
• Work with upstream and downstream partner teams across data centers, supply chain, construction and execution teams, hardware, and software operations to establish a streamlined supply chain and reliable deployments that meet cost.
  
• Manage the controls roadmap from initial concept and hardware selection through to end-of-life/obsolescence planning.
  
• Evaluate and hold vendors accountable for firmware quality, hardware reliability, and compliance with technical specifications.
