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.

The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide.

We're the driving force behind Google's groundbreaking innovations, empowering the development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled computing power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking, Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.

Responsibilities

• Develop the technical and product roadmaps for deployment acceleration for the network portfolio of products. Partner closely influences product and engineering leadership to meet business objectives.
• Drive the cross-functional program to scale and standardize our frameworks. Lead the complex integration with operational domains (e.g., Networking Infra, Logistics, Supply Chain) to capture previously invisible workflows with zero operational friction.
• Deconstruct complex, high-risk technical problems into clear, executable phases. Challenge the status quo and seek improvement. Promote clarity and focus on delivering incremental value.
• Act as the primary technical program advocate across the broader organizations. Negotiate boundaries, secure technical dependencies, and build deep alignment with engineering partners.
• Advocate operational and engineering excellence. Mentor junior program managers, and introduce lightweight, agile practices that allow the team to fail fast and iterate rapidly without bureaucratic overhead.
