Program Manager II, Supply Chain, Cloud

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 Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish — working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.

As our products and services scale the globe, the team works behind the scenes as a dynamic team within Google responsible for delivering the infrastructure capacity needed to support Google's rapidly growing product portfolio. The team will manage a complex portfolio of infrastructure projects, ensuring that Google's services have the resources they need to operate seamlessly and reliably. Perform location strategy, regional planning and portfolio management to determine where, why, and how much infrastructure assets Google needs to seamlessly scale into the future. The team is responsible for planning and supporting data center equipment needs across the entire global portfolio.

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.
