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.
Our goal is to build a Google that looks like the world around us — and we want Googlers to stay and grow when they join us. As part of our efforts to build a Google for everyone, we build diversity, equity, and inclusion into our work and we aim to cultivate a sense of belonging throughout the company.
As a System Engineering Program Manager, you will work closely with Engineers, Product Managers, Contract Manufacturers (CMs), Original Device Manufacturers (ODMs) and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to get high-quality products built, tested and released on time. You will coordinate many fast-changing, moving parts and get them to come together as a product. You will be responsible for executing established processes, while managing production tasks with minimal guidance from higher level program managers, engineering, or product leads.
The Google Pixel team focuses on designing and delivering the world's most helpful mobile experience. The team works on shaping the future of Pixel devices and services through some of the most advanced designs, techniques, products, and experiences in consumer electronics. This includes bringing together the best of Google’s artificial intelligence, software, and hardware to build global smartphones and create transformative experiences for users across the world.
Responsibilities

- Identify program risks, develop mitigation strategies and facilitate conflict resolution.
- Synthesize large amounts of data into a clear story and communicate to stakeholders and organizations at all levels.
