London, UK

Artificial Intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At Google DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.

The Google DeepMind Impact Accelerator (GDI) has a unique role in GDM, to develop solutions and resources built on GDM's technologies and expertise that extend the benefits to humanity. We are a path to real world impact, beyond ABC products and services or making our research public.

This role is a six month fixed-term contract. Working in partnership with GDI’s leadership team, you will develop and be responsible for building our AI product portfolio focused on the social impact of Google DeepMind's generative AI technology (such as Gemini).

We have one early stage project in this area, and your primary focus during this contract will be to select and propose a second. This will involve market research, internal organisational research, use case analysis, stakeholder engagement and product definition.

This is an evolving and dynamic area of Google DeepMind with a collaborative, diverse group that partners closely with a wide variety of teams across Alphabet and a range of external partners.

• Work alongside research, engineering and partnership teams to identify and define opportunities to use Google DeepMind technology to solve real-world problems, and work closely with them to determine the best approach and execution plans for prioritised ideas.
• Use your influence to bring together and motivate individuals (including Scientists and Engineers) from across GDM Units to work on projects related to generative AI applications that benefit humanity
• Scope and prototype products incorporating ideas from stakeholders and partners, and build and manage external product/deployment partnerships where relevant.
• Drive strategic deep dives across GDM's generative AI technologies to assess potential, define use cases and routes-to-market, and prioritise opportunities. Partner with GDI and GDM leadership to define, communicate, and build a plan for delivery on these strategic priorities.
• Define metrics and achievements to accelerate discovery, evaluate the success of programs against their aims, goals and objectives, and share lessons and insights across the wider business.
• Build relationships and collaborate with multiple stakeholders internally and externally.

The role will suit candidates who enjoy applying state-of-the-art AI to important real-world problems that maximise positive impact for the wider community.

In order to set you up for success as a Portfolio Lead at Google DeepMind, we look for the following skills and experience:

• Demonstrable experience and knowledge of real world AI applications, including supporting teams to drive large scale programs from inception to delivery in a fast paced and dynamic environment.
• Confidence engaging researchers and engineers. While not necessarily an ML / AI specialist yourself, you are able to understand the considerations related to AI research and technologies.
• Product Management experience; crafting strategic product roadmaps from conception to launch and working with cross-functional teams.
• Experience and a proven ability to collaborate with a variety of teams and partners.
• Outstanding communication skills and ability to work with both tech and non-tech teams and senior leadership.
• A passion for Google DeepMind’s mission and knowledge and excitement about AI and its potential for real-world impact.

At Google DeepMind, we value diversity of experience, knowledge, backgrounds and perspectives and harness these qualities to create extraordinary impact. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of sex, race, religion or belief, ethnic or national origin, disability, age, citizenship, marital, domestic or civil partnership status, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy, or related condition (including breastfeeding) or any other basis as protected by applicable law.
