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 PgM in the gUP TSI PMO, you will be instrumental in optimizing our
organization's Planning & Governance frameworks. You will drive the
implementation and continuous improvement of key operational processes that
underpin TSI's success. Your responsibilities will span critical areas including
facilitating annual and quarterly Tech Planning, refining the Product
Development Life Cycle (PDLC), enhancing Portfolio Management visibility and
practices, coordinating the development and tracking of impactful Product OKRs,
and streamlining the central intake process for new requests and contribute to
broader PMO standardization efforts.

Collaborating with TPMs, PMs, Engineering, and other stakeholders, you will
ensure these processes are efficient, well-documented, and consistently adopted.

In gTech Users and Products (gUP), our mission is to advocate for Google’s users
by creating helpful and trusted experiences across the product ecosystem. We
achieve this by meeting partners and consumers where they are with support and
help, representing their needs with our product partners and proposing fixes and
features that elevate their engagement with Google's diverse product ecosystem.
Additionally we provide a range of product services that ensure our products are
optimized for every user, no matter where they are in the world (e.g.,
localization, digitization, partner integration and more).
