In this role, you will be responsible for enabling and accelerating Google's data center infrastructure growth and delivery through Artificial Intelligence-powered Supply Chain Planning for all Google Product Areas. You will drive planning decisions for new technology and supply capability across data centers, networking, and machines. Within Supply Chain Planning, the Network Planning team focuses on driving the forecasting, demand and supply planning, and execution capability or feasibility management of data center networking infrastructure products.

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.
