Delivery Technical Program Manager, Data Center Development, Third-Party Data Centers

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. In this role, you will define and develop a multi-year strategy and roadmap for third-party data center delivery execution. This includes building and leading a team of project managers to oversee project execution from initial design through to completion, focusing on process optimization, portfolio/project health (e.g., cost, schedule, scope) reporting, understanding contractual limitations/liabilities, building scalable solutions, and leveraging technology/automations to meet growing business demands. You will provide leadership over third-party data center and offsite infrastructure projects, developing project managers, and serving as the partner/vendor development lead for key developers and construction contractors. You will be focused on design, construction, and capital project support for ongoing operations.
