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.

As a Technical Program Manager for Google's Edge Network Compliance, you will
orchestrate and lead cross-organizational technical programs. Serving as the
bridge between strategic objectives and engineering execution, you will apply
technical judgment to navigate ambiguity and deliver impactful solutions. You
will proactively scope technical requirements, define engineering roadmaps, and
ensure alignment between executive technical and non-technical stakeholders. By
leveraging advanced domain knowledge, you will drive programs that deliver
significant technical, business, and operational improvements, guiding teams
through the entire project life-cycle while contributing to a culture of
engineering excellence.

The Data Center team designs and operates some of the most sophisticated
electrical and HVAC systems in the world. We are an upbeat, creative,
team-oriented group of engineers committed to building and operating powerful
data centers.
