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

and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical tradeoffs
in product development with engineers.

As the Data Center NPI Technical Program Manager, you will lead the introduction
of new hardware and infrastructure products into Google's data centers. You will
own the operational work-streams within the product life-cycle, ensuring new
technologies can be deployed, operated, and serviced efficiently and safely.

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.
