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 Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its

business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage

Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more

sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google

Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical

business problems.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills,

experience, and relevant education or training.
