About The Job

The Global Practice Architect is accountable for the strategy, construction and management of the plays they manage in their practice area.

You will showcase leadership capabilities and thinking by designing and orchestrating the right model for Google Cloud’s objectives and the current market landscape. You will partner with key cross-functional stakeholders to develop and iterate on the plan. You will interface directly with customers, both helping them to understand Google Cloud’s offerings and gathering their feedback. You will also recommend ways to adapt as the market and customer needs change.
