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.

Labs is a group focused on incubating early-stage efforts in support of Google’s
mission to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible
and useful. Our team exists to help discover and create new ways to advance our
core products through exploration and the application of new technologies. We
work to build new solutions that have the potential to transform how users
interact with Google. Our goal is to drive innovation by developing new Google
products and capabilities that deliver significant impact over longer
timeframes.
