About the job
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.
Responsibilities
- Implement communications standards across a portfolio of programs including executive and key partner communications.
- Establish a cadence for program reviews, decision-making, prioritization, and resource stewardship (effective deployment of machine and people resources) whereby improvements such as efficiency and utilization gains are measurable and the impact can be felt organization wide.
- Lead a governance structure that drives executive decision-making. Ensure governance structure exposes and mitigates dependencies.
- Seek out and identify change management opportunities that increase program velocity and affect multiple teams.
- Define/manage a program portfolio solving problems that focus on high business impact for the organization and product area.
