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.

The Google Global Networking and Infrastructure team develops networking technologies that allow Google's global WAN to connect the world through a zero-touch Software Defined Networking infrastructure. Google Global Network delivers connectivity to Google Cloud customers, Google products (e.g., Search, Ads, Workspace, etc.) serving users across the world, and operates CDN infrastructure that fuels YouTube.

The Google Global Networking and Infrastructure Customer Experience Office focuses on prioritizing business outcomes and driving accountability, influencing processes, products, and experience improvements.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.
