Technical Program Manager, Data Center Planning

Google • San Francisco, CA

8h • $138,000 - $198,000

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 Technical Program Manager at Google, you’ll use
your technical expertise to lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start
to finish. You’ll work with stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks,
manage project schedules, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners
across the company. You're equally comfortable explaining your team's analyses
and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical tradeoffs
in product development with engineers.

The Data Center Planning team optimizes the delivery and allocation of Google's
fleet of data center capacity, based on long-term growth projections for
internal and external needs. DCP is part of the global organization responsible
for AI enablement and infrastructure delivery.

Teams across Google rely on this team to guide timing and priorities of land
acquisition, seed funding (including campus plan activities), offsite utility
infrastructure, long-lead equipment, and construction investments. This team
prepares scenarios that look at a variety of possibilities -- across products,
use cases, locations, and chips -- and drives our infrastructure investments in
the short, medium, and long-term.

The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google
customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and
Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our
customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users
worldwide.

We're the driving force behind Google's groundbreaking innovations, empowering
the development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled computing
power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable
developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping
the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the
development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking,
Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.
