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 goal is to build a Google that looks like the world around us — and we want Googlers to stay and grow when they join us. As part of our efforts to build a Google for everyone, we build diversity, equity, and inclusion into our work and we aim to cultivate a sense of belonging throughout the company.

Core Machine Learning (ML) is the central platform team that provides ML software tools, services, solutions and infrastructure to all Google product areas, including Search, Ads, YouTube, Cloud, and Maps. The team's goal is to make it easier to perform ML experimentation, development, and productionization.

As a Technical Program Manager, you will play a key role in bringing ML models from research to production. You will partner with product managers, engineers, and leadership to define roadmaps, prioritize features, and ensure timely releases.
