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.
Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
Responsibilities
- Deliver cross-functional projects/programs with predictability and ensure they provide value to our customers. Manage software programs that include large software components for network planning, design and operations as well as vendor software releases for various network device roles in Google’s Global network.
- Manage ambiguity of the problem space, requirement changes and priority adjustments.
- Align team members and stakeholders, communicate widely and transparently, keep stakeholders appraised of progress through periodic updates and checkpoints such as engineering reviews.
- Use technical acumen to drive project delivery, technology reviews, guide technical proposals and build consensus between cross-functional teams.
- Set project/program success criteria, create measurable milestones, track deliverables and deliver customer value incrementally. Measure, analyze and optimize constantly to improve velocity, quality and efficiency of projects.
