About the job

Google's projects, like our users, span the globe and require managers to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the unique engineering challenges we face daily. As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you lead complex, multi-disciplinary engineering projects using your engineering expertise. You plan requirements with internal customers and usher projects through the entire project lifecycle. This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating them to project stakeholders. You're equally at home explaining your team's analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical trade-offs in product development with engineers.

Using your extensive technical and leadership expertise, you manage projects of various size and scope, identifying future opportunities, improving processes and driving the technical directions of your programs.

As a Technical Program Manager, you will be responsible for the delivery of complex utility infrastructure projects across our EMEA portfolio. You will work closely with a network of stakeholders to ensure that all key players are coordinated on roles, responsibilities, and deadlines. You will also be responsible for developing and implementing project plans, tracking progress, and communicating status updates to stakeholders. In coordination with commercial, engineering, and operations teams, you will lead strategic water and wastewater utility infrastructure programs that build and maintain a robust pipeline of capacity for our data center fleet.

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.
