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.

The Data Center Delivery and Execution (DCDE) team is a collection of Data Center Design/Engineering/Construction experts. Also included are Project/Data Center Services/Project Controls and Front-End-Planning managers who establish and construct the most efficient data centers in the world.

As a Central Operations Construction Technical Program Manager (TPM), you will be deeply involved in multiple strategic and tactical projects and programs focused on improving our data center planning and execution.

You will focus on partner programs which means you will be deeply involved in multiple strategic and tactical efforts focused on improving our data center planning and execution. Additionally, you will organize and manage program initiatives through completion including successfully delivering and communicating to the business operational improvements, technical insertion opportunities, machine learning progress, and cross-functional programs at project delivery.

These program initiatives will focus on the processes, procedures and tools within the programmatic end-to-end data center delivery plan and execution process of our hyper-scale capital improvement projects.
