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.

Data Center Central Operations is responsible for keeping these sites operating efficiently and safely. This role will provide the technical expertise and tactical site‑specific support for innovation and continuous improvements to information security (e.g., PLCs, electrical switchgear and mechanical heavy equipment). The role will be responsible for working with numerous cross functional teams and stakeholders to implement a vision for innovative site security processes and technologies, as well as directly driving improvements across a basket of physical Data Center sites. Along with the rest of the Fleet Health team within DC Central Operations, you will work cross functionally with the larger Technical Infrastructure organization, collaborating with core teams in Global Server Operations, Supply Chain and Procurement, Data Center Operations, Advanced Technology and Innovation, DC Engineers, and other teams.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.
