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 Strategy and Operations Program Manager, you will separately lead
high-impact strategic initiatives and drive operational excellence across the
organization. You will own the scoping, planning, and delivery of complex
programs that span multiple quarters, translating vague business priorities into
clear, actionable goals and roadmaps. You will partner with executive leadership
to align direction and influence cross-functional decision-making through
strategic data analysis and insights. You will be a self-directed professional
who excels at navigating ambiguity and building momentum to deliver scalable and
sustainable results.

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.
