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.

As Senior Technical Program Manager, you will lead and drive a portfolio of complex, high-impact, and often ambiguous programs within the Workspace Ecosystem. You will be pivotal in shaping and leading the strategy and execution of critical initiatives, ensuring exceptional experiences for users, developers, and partners. You will partner closely with senior leads across Development, Product Management, UX, and other cross-functional teams to deliver programs that significantly expand the Workspace platform's reach, capabilities, and market impact.

In this role, you will operate with a high degree of autonomy, influence strategy at a senior level, and orchestrate large-scale efforts across organizational boundaries. You will be a key advocate in defining how we build and scale the ecosystem.

Responsibilities

• Identify and lead new opportunities to grow and improve the Workspace Ecosystem, influencing product roadmaps and strategic investments.
• Define, lead, and manage the full lifecycle of a portfolio of complex and ambiguous programs, from strategic inception to successful landing, ensuring tight alignment with Workspace Ecosystem's long-term goals.
• Develop and drive program and portfolio strategy, co-developing goals, priorities, and success metrics with senior leadership.
• Build and maintain strong partnerships with executive stakeholders across Product, Development, UX, DevRel, Marketing, and Sales, ensuring alignment and buy-in on program direction and execution.
• Exercise technical judgment to guide development teams, contribute to technical discussions, and ensure robust and scalable solutions.
