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 mission is to transform cloud operations by placing Gemini at the center of the Google Cloud experience. We provide intelligent AI assistance and autonomous workflows to manage the application lifecycle. Gemini Cloud Assist accelerates application design, simplifies DevOps operations, and offers Financial Operations (FinOps) insights to optimize costs.

As a Technical Program Manager Lead, you will drive the strategic execution of our next-generation agentic ecosystem. You will orchestrate complex, multi-organizational workstreams, leveraging deep technical judgment in agent frameworks, evaluations, and emerging AI standards to deliver enterprise-grade AI. Sit at the intersection of engineering and strategy, you will translate technical execution into executive insights, shape go-to-market strategies, and lead migrations to define the future of the autonomous cloud.

Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
