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 mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.
Within Devices & Services, this role is designed for a leader who grows in ambiguity and possesses a high degree of ownership over complex, large-scale projects. You will bridge the gap between engineering, product management, and business units to ensure our post-sales value chain is sustainable, profitable, and globally scalable. You will not only manage timelines and risks but also drive the strategic direction for circular economy initiatives, influencing how our hardware lives on through second and third life cycles.

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