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.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.
Responsibilities
- Manage and drive the execution of complex, large-scale software and technical programs. Lead data-driven launch readiness processes for next-generation laptops and tablets.
- Establish quantifiable metrics for quality and system health to lead formal milestone reviews and drive Go/No-Go release decisions.
- Orchestrate technical requirements and governance across internal teams, external vendors, and global partners to ensure seamless program alignment.
- Identify execution gaps in technical workflows and implement strategies to remove bottlenecks and increase launch speed.
- Navigate complex technical blockers and maintain executive alignment on program pivots, risks, and mitigation plans.
