About The Job

Google’s projects, like our users, span the globe and require managers to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the unique engineering challenges we face daily. As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you lead complex, multi-disciplinary engineering projects using your engineering expertise. You plan requirements with internal customers and usher projects through the entire project lifecycle. This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating them to project stakeholders. You’re equally at home explaining your team’s analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical trade-offs in product development with engineers.

Using your extensive technical and leadership expertise, you manage projects of various size and scope, identifying future opportunities, improving processes and driving the technical directions of your programs.

In this role, you will manage projects of various size and scope, identifying future opportunities, improving processes, and driving the technical directions of your programs.

As an Engineering Program Manager, you will work closely with hardware and software engineers, product managers, contract manufacturers (CMs), original design manufacturers (ODMs), and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to get high-quality products built, tested, and released on time. You’ll coordinate many fast-changing, moving parts and get them to come together as a product.

Additionally, you’ll answer all questions about schedules, quality, and progress updates. You’ll be responsible for identifying and managing risks, making sound decisions about quality, and stopping (or speeding up) production at the right time.

Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users.

• Identify dependencies and collaborate with a cross-functional team to execute, mitigate risks and issues, and meet system build milestones, cost, quality, and manufacturability.
• Develop knowledge of consumer hardware development and manufacturing processes, vendor relations, and work with Contract Manufacturers (CMs).
• Identify risks, develop mitigation strategies, and facilitate conflict resolution among a cross-functional team of Engineers. Generate the ideas required to solve the technical subjects.
• Develop playbooks, tools, and processes proactively to collaborate engineering productivity and own technical relationships with cross-functional vendors and partners.
