About the job
Google's projects, like our users, span the globe and require managers to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the unique engineering challenges we face daily. As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you lead complex, multi-disciplinary engineering projects using your engineering expertise. You plan requirements with internal customers and usher projects through the entire project lifecycle. This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating them to project stakeholders. You're equally at home explaining your team's analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical trade-offs in product development with engineers.
Using your extensive technical and leadership expertise, you manage projects of various size and scope, identifying future opportunities, improving processes and driving the technical directions of your programs.
In this role, you will drive the successful delivery of Google's data centers, combining strong technical knowledge with program management mastery and handle significant and complex programs. You will lead multi-phased new builds, or manage a portfolio of projects and have a substantial impact on delivering Google's critical infrastructure capacity.
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.
Responsibilities
- Develop a deep understanding of data center design, engineering, and construction processes. This includes familiarizing with mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) systems, building management systems, and network infrastructure, as well as construction methodologies.
- Manage the full project lifecycle, including planning, scheduling, budgeting, risk management, and execution. Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to Google's high standards.
- Work extensively with various teams within the Data Center Delivery and Engineering (DCDE) organization, identify and resolve complex technical and logistical challenges that arise during construction, and ensure minimal impact on project delivery.
- Contribute to the development and refinement of best practices, standards, and tools to improve the efficiency and predictability of data center construction. Align with the goals of teams like FIA to create standardized and repeatable processes.
