About the job

Google's projects, like our users, span the globe and require managers to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the unique engineering challenges we face daily. 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.

The team develops all the hardware for Google's Home and Trackers business, under the Google Home and Fitbit brands. Hardware is developed using the JDM Lite methodology, in close cooperation with the manufacturing partner (JDM), and other internal cross-functional teams, such as ProdOps, embedded software, algorithms, and various TechEng groups.

The team is composed of very senior engineers and EPMs, which reflects the essential leadership and cross-functional requirements of the team members.

Responsibilities

  • Organize, lead and grow the EPM team to deliver 5 to 10 simultaneous complex hardware development projects in close cooperation with the manufacturing partner (JDM partner) and internal cross-functional teams. Managing external partners and the relationship with cross-functional teams is a core area of responsibility.
  • Directly manage the EPM team, including all aspects of people management.
  • Be a highly credible thought leader within Google and industry on the subject matter domain of the respective organization.
  • Drive measurable program performance gains correlated to execution velocity. Establish governance over prioritization decisions to ensure alignment with key performance indicators.
