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. The Data Center team designs and operates some of the most sophisticated electrical and HVAC systems in the world. We are an upbeat, creative, team-oriented group of engineers committed to building and operating powerful data centers.

Responsibilities

• Manage projects throughout the entire life cycle from initiation, design, build, deploy to closure across the different data center environments.
• Manage external vendors in support of deployment activities by providing a framework for vendor teams to be successful to manage the volume of deployments in your region.
• Partner with cross-functional teams to plan and deliver the physical infrastructure for Google’s growing data centers.
• Identify when additional tools and process improvements are needed and raise the visibility at the regional/global level.
• Ensure project management best practices are followed which includes regular project updates, risks and mitigation, and timely escalation.
• Ensure a high standard of quality for design and deployment activities.
