Technical Program Manager, Data Center Network Delivery

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.

• Engage with partner teams to understand dependencies, align project priorities, secure resources, and manage logistics.
• Document deployment patterns, spikes, and lessons learned to improve deployment times, drive root cause corrective actions, and implement recommendations to prevent future capacity constraints.
• Participate in business reviews to provide global deployment and capacity updates, create health reports highlighting wins, risks, and upcoming demands, and establish an escalation process.
• Ensure deliverables are managed and delivered according to the overall schedule, collaborating with partner teams to meet forecasting mechanisms and design constraints.
