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.

Accelerate Google's delivery of AI products and compute by providing services, infrastructure, and frameworks that are efficient and reliable at scale. The Core ML Program Management Office (PMO) is responsible for driving standard, repeatable software stacks, reducing technical fragmentation, and accelerating the transition from research to production.

We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide.
