About The Position

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 Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish — working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines. The Supply Chain Planning (SCP) organization within Cloud Supply Chain is responsible for enabling and accelerating Google's data center infrastructure growth and delivery through AI-Powered Supply Chain Planning for all Google product areas, driving planning decisions for new technology and supply capability across data centers, networking, and machines. Within SCP, the Network Planning team focuses on driving the forecasting, demand and supply planning, execution capability and feasibility management of data center networking infrastructure products. 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.
