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. Youre equally comfortable explaining your teams analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical tradeoffs in product development with engineers.

At Corp Eng, we build world-leading business solutions that scale a more helpful Google for everyone. As Google’s IT organization, we provide end-to-end solutions for organizations across Google. We deliver the right tools, platforms, and experiences for all Googlers as they create more helpful products and services for everyone. In the simplest terms, we are Google for Googlers.

Responsibilities:

• Own and drive the planning and execution of complex, cross-functional engineering efforts within a specific domain or product area.
• Lead programs using agile methodologies. Demonstrate a strong understanding of Agile ceremonies and help software teams adopt and mature their agile practices to improve efficiency.
• Build and maintain effective relationships with technical and non-technical stakeholders across teams to ensure project alignment and buy-in.
• Use sound judgment to drive project planning, scheduling, execution, and communication, building consensus among team members and partners.
• Define and track relevant project success metrics, monitor progress, and provide clear, concise updates to project partners and leadership.
