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 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.

Google's infrastructure needs go far beyond server computers. As our products and services scale the globe, we work behind the scenes to secure infrastructure to build Google's future. The Strategic Partnership Office is the organization that operates at the intersection of industrial innovation, external affairs, and civic impact, creating bridges between Google’s technology capabilities and the real-world partners that extend our reach and mission.
