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 Core team builds the technical foundation behind Google’s flagship products. We are owners and advocates for the underlying design elements, developer platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Google. These are the essential building blocks for excellent, safe, and coherent experiences for our users and drive the pace of innovation for every developer. We look across Google’s products to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique opportunity to impact important technical decisions across the company.Responsibilities
- Create the goal for and manage projects across the product lifecycle: planning, feature prioritization, project management, testing, delivery, deployment, communication, and transition to maintenance mode.
- Identify and establish metrics driven process improvements to increase team efficiency and execution.
- Use your technical judgment to influence best outcomes both within the team, as well as with stakeholders and partners.
- Drive product excellence through assembly of project delivery success criteria and overseeing progress towards those success metrics.
- Act as the project go-to person, communicating status to leadership and stakeholders, identifying roadblocks and proposing go-forward solutions.
