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.

As a Senior Supplier Engagement and Sourcing Specialist, you will be a leader responsible for directing a portfolio of multidisciplinary supplier programs that accelerate the business impact of Google's Technical Infrastructure (TI). You will drive innovation in how Google interfaces with the industry, specifically focusing on data center systems and silicon domains. You will navigate ambiguity to define and drive cross-functional programs across large stakeholder groups, ensuring Google is positioned to align with market forces and industry trends.
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.
