Technical Program Manager III, Long Haul Planning, Cloud Networking

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 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, you will plan, design, and acquire the scalable network infrastructure to deliver the fastest, most reliable experience to users across the region and around the globe. You will connect Google's fleet of data centers, Cloud customers, and users by planning and acquiring long-haul and metro terrestrial dark fiber networks, colocation space and power, and other critical assets.

Responsibilities include collaborating with internal business and cross-functional networking technical teams to identify and define tactical initiatives necessary to meet Google's network infrastructure needs for both expansion and cost optimization. You will translate demand forecasts into regional capacity plans over time, taking into account market trends and technology changes to ensure the most optimized and cost effective network solution, translating this to asset/infrastructure requirements. You will present network plans and roadmaps for approval by all internal stakeholders that range from short-term augments to long-term region-wide strategies for Google network. You will manage the execution of approved network plans by co-ordinating with internal contributors such as network negotiators or vendor delivery managers to ensure infrastructure is delivered on-time and within allocated budget.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. US: $163000 - $237000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits.
