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.
In this role, you will be part of the team that is responsible for Google's network demand where you will optimize the demand plan and provide insights into network demand trends. With a north star to deliver best-in-class forecast accuracy while reducing the e2e planning cycle time, you will drive continuous improvements into our processes, integrate organizational strategies into the forecasting model and drive critical business decisions that enable Google's global network. You will be working closely with all of Google's product areas to understand their network requirements and partnering with Google Global Infrastructure product, data science, engineering, and planning teams to deliver.
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.
