**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 ML, Systems, & Cloud AI (MSCA) organization at Google designs, implements, and manages the hardware, software, machine learning, and systems infrastructure for all Google services (Search, YouTube, etc.) and Google Cloud.

Our end users are Googlers, Cloud customers and the billions of people who use Google services around the world.

We prioritize security, efficiency, and reliability across everything we do - from developing our latest TPUs to running a global network, while driving towards shaping the future of hyperscale computing.

Our global impact spans software and hardware, including Google Cloud’s Vertex AI, the leading AI platform for bringing Gemini models to enterprise customers.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $183,000-$271,000 + bonus + equity + benefits.

Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location.

Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

Drive delivery across the complete portfolio of products and solutions.
+ Continuously manage expectations and ensure all leadership and stakeholders (including directors and product leaders) are fully aware of program progress and blockers.

Proactively manage escalations and unblock obstacles.
+ Apply technical judgment to drive project delivery, challenge proposals, and build consensus.

Utilize analytical, problem-solving, and negotiation skills to ensure execution efficiency.
+ Engage with other groups to streamline processes, simplify execution, and bring tooling for efficiencies.

Lead and mentor project staff and team members to support their development.
