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.
As a Technical Program Manager, you will manage key technical projects driven by the Rollouts Organization. Rollouts tooling is the centralized standard for making production changes at Google. Rollouts help engineers deploy changes to production - launching new features and fixes, changing configuration or data, or adjusting serving capacity to match demand. These capabilities are critical to innovation and reliability of services with millions of users every day.
Responsibilities
- Lead complex, projects and work independently to drive program success.
- Manage various programs of work, engage teams and engineers, and set the pace for project delivery.
- Become a trusted advisor to decision makers, providing insights to the engineering teams, and influence product direction. Enable partnerships allow Google innovation.
- Develop, build, and evolve insightful metrics with reliable supporting datasets to proactively provide visibility into engineering solutions and customer insights.
- Provide quantitative analysis focus, requiring interpretation of technical information from structured and unstructured sources.
