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.

As a Senior Technical Program Manager on the Edge Capacity Delivery team, you will drive critical strategic initiatives that maintain and secure our connection to the outside world. This unique leadership role is responsible for the operational product management for Google's global Content Delivery Network (CDN) hardware portfolio.

In this position, you will optimize quality and efficiency for a massive, globally distributed hardware fleet. On the product side, you will guide standard Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) hardware through its full lifecycle, influencing vendor roadmaps and navigating supply chain complexities.

This is a high-impact individual contributor role requiring exceptional stakeholder management, program leadership in ambiguous hyperscale environments, and ability to influence without authority across complex organizational silos.

The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide.

We're the driving force behind Google's groundbreaking innovations, empowering the development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled computing power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking, Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.

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

US: $192000 - $278000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits
