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. In this role, you will be responsible for delivering on cost, supply, and quality across all hardware products. You will lead capabilities development for the Devices and Services Product Group (DSPG) with multiple stakeholders across the organization. You will have an opportunity to shape how product teams launch and define products, drive efficiencies across a global operations team, develop scalable processes, onboard new capabilities, and resolve top issues gating productivity and business growth. Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users.
