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. As a Program Manager within the Global Infrastructure and Energy Investment Governance team, you will be instrumental in managing the planning, acquisition, and delivery of critical infrastructure assets that enable and connect Google's Data Centers to users worldwide. This role involves strategic business planning, budgeting, and investment analysis for a global infrastructure portfolio. You will collaborate with various teams to establish robust governance processes, optimize resource allocation, ensure tax compliance, and provide data-driven insights for financial decisions. 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.
