Technical Program Manager III, Network Delivery Engineering, Cloud Networking

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 Network Deployment Engineering (NDE) team is at the forefront of introducing new technology to Google's network and infrastructure. The team's mission is to deliver Network for Google to meet customers’ needs by managing deployment readiness, working with cross-functional partners and measuring introduction velocity against program plans. NDE is a key connection between the organization of Google Global Networking and Infrastructure and other engineering teams throughout Cloud.

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.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
