Job Description

As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you lead complex, multi-disciplinary engineering projects using your engineering expertise. You plan requirements with internal customers and usher projects through the entire project lifecycle. This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating them to project stakeholders. You're equally at home explaining your team's analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical trade-offs in product development with engineers. Using your extensive technical and leadership expertise, you manage various Engineering-specific programs and teams. Chrome is dedicated to building a better, more open web. We’re focused on making a better browser (on both desktop and mobile) to help users take advantage of all the web has to offer in a safe and secure way.

We also built Chrome as an open source project so the entire web ecosystem could benefit from the latest innovations in speed, simplicity and security. Responsibilities: Implement communications standards across a portfolio of programs including executive and key partner communications. Establish a reliable and visible cadence for program reviews, decision-making, prioritization, and Resource Stewardship (effective deployment of machine and people resources) whereby improvements such as efficiency and utilization gains are measurable and the impact can be felt organization wide. Lead a governance structure that drives effective executive decision-making. Ensure governance structure effectively exposes and mitigates dependencies. Seek out and identify change management opportunities that increase program velocity and which affect multiple teams. Apply governance over change management to ensure it’s used effectively. Define/manage a program portfolio solving problems that target high business impact for the organization and product area.
