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.
In this role, you will partner with Engineering teams to formulate and articulate a long-term direction, develop road maps, engage cross-functional teams, and establish how often development occurs for software systems for Network Planning, Design, and Deployment.
You will initiate new programs, gain support and drive them through completion. You will design and launch new processes, institute process improvements, and help program teams scale. And in doing so, you will improve Google’s ability to deliver network capacity on-time, with high availability and achieve maximum efficiency.
