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.

Network Infrastructure Engineering is responsible for the evaluation, design, and construction of Google's network space in facilities across the globe. As a Technical Program Manager, you will evaluate, plan, design, cost, and build new facilities and expand the infrastructure supporting the network.

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.

Responsibilities

• Review and understand Google network architecture standards.
• Draft statement of works for Design and Engineering Drawing Sets.
• Review proposals, costs, and submittals related to new build projects. Negotiate and execute agreements to kick off construction projects.
