Lead Technical Program Manager, Electrical Power Systems Energy

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.

In this role, you will serve as a high-level architect for our electrical power systems roadmap and product life-cycle. You will lead the exploration, development, and global growth of power systems and energy products, shepherding them from concept to launch. This role demands a unique blend of technical program management, visionary leadership, and the ability to influence at the highest levels of the organization to ensure Google's data centers remain the most efficient and sustainable in the world.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $192,000-$278,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location.
