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 the Google Chat Experience Technical Program Manager Lead, you'll own the portfolio of features that help users be more productive through effortless triage, prioritization, catch up and composition. You'll also own the multi-year Chat-wide strategy to get Chat to feature uniformity, unlocking product adoption, and delivering new and delightful user experiences.
In this role, you will collaborate with Engineers, Product Managers, and UX leads and drive projects through the entire project life-cycle. This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating goals to project stakeholders. You'll also partner with other mission teams such as Gmail, Search, and drive cross-mission and cross-Product Area collaborations.
The web is what you make of it and our team is helping the world make more of the web. From open-source pros to user-experience extraordinaires, we develop products that help users connect, communicate and collaborate with others. Our consumer products and cloud platforms are giving millions of users at homes, businesses, universities and nonprofits around the world the tools that shape their web experience -- and changing the way they think about computing.
The US base salary range for this full-time position is $156,000-$229,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location.
