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
- Design and implement a unified "front door" methodology for the EDGE, Transport, Core, and Campus portfolios to ensure all incoming requests are vetted, scoped, and prioritized effectively.
- Act as the primary interface between upstream (planning/strategy) and downstream (implementation/operations) teams establishing SLAs to ensure mutual accountability across cross-functional teams.
- Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in the design lifecycle, re-engineering workflows to significantly reduce "concept-to-completion" cycle times across the network domain.
- Navigate complex, multi-domain work sprints to ensure synchronized delivery and friction-free execution for high-priority engineering projects.
- Track program health and resource utilization, translate technical data into executive-level reporting that highlights progress and mitigates risks before they become blockers.
