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 Cloud Learning Services Team (CLS) works with companies, government agencies, and academic institutions to help millions of individuals develop and grow their technology skills with Google Cloud. We have the motivation to upskill existing and future workers with a keen focus on leveraging the power of AI in educational technology to reach over 40 million learners.

As a Senior Technical Program Manager, you will lead execution efforts for projects or programs that span multiple organizations and product areas. You will lead the development of new products and features to create new business sources and increase business growth, and also drive technical discussions on product design. As you lead cross-functional/organizational projects, you will negotiate scope and timelines with technical dependencies that drive changes to support the launch of a product. You will leverage and apply subdomain expertise in a relevant engineering discipline to lead efforts on domain, product, or service improvement.

Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
