Like our users, Google’s projects span the globe. We need managers to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the unique engineering challenges we face every day. As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you lead complex, multi-disciplinary construction projects that require extensive engineering and project management expertise. Working with internal customers, you will plan and oversee projects from start to finish. This includes managing project internal and external team members, 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 project development with engineers.
