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.
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.
Responsibilities
- Lead and manage projects related to the development and publication of topology, capacity, and infrastructure Plans of Record, ensuring alignment with the Network Supply Plan weekly/monthly release cycles for stockout, reliability, geo-expansion, and signal queues.
- Support Network Supply Plan publications, ensuring consistent handling of topology changes within the new weekly and monthly approval processes, including regional reviews and Change Control Board meetings.
- Establish, contribute to, and track key business metrics focused on the efficiency and throughput of the new planning queues, such as processing time and SLA adherence.
- Provide technical expertise in network planning functions and contribute to programs aimed at efficiency, accuracy, and automation, with a focus on the tools and processes.
- Liaise with partner teams (GND, GNS, etc.) to identify and resolve obstacles and ambiguities in the new processes and automation workflows.
