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.

We work to develop a fleet that serves the best interest of Google, balancing customer needs with our capabilities to deliver.

The Fleet Actions delivery team within GIG focuses on the enablement and orchestration of capacity fulfillment, from order creation and constraints enforcement through to Delivery.
