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.

As a Technical Program Manager (TPM) on the Infrastructure Strategy and Design (ISD) Design and Engineering team, you will drive the physical network program strategy and execution for Google’s global data centers. You will lead high-impact programs to establish consistency and efficiency for next-generation network infrastructure, partnering cross-functionally to co-architect designs optimized for high-performance computing and AI/ML scaling.

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