The gTech Strategy and Operations (gSO) team empowers Google’s support team (gTech) to do amazing things to land the present and build for the future by acting as strategic partners and trusted advisors. We create value through deep functional and business expertise combined with analytical excellence to formulate and deliver strategies.

In this role, you will act as a strategic partner and internal consultant for the partner and consumer support team (gTech Users and Products - “gUP”). Taking the traditional strategy role a step further, you will act as both a strategist and a builder. You will lead the charge in finding and implementing AI-driven solutions to reduce administrative overhead across business reporting and other processes, partnering with gUP teams to streamline executive reporting frameworks and create more efficient processes. You will not only define the problem statements for reporting bottlenecks but also develop scrappy, AI-driven solutions to address the organization's top operational pain points.

We are instrumental in setting go-to-market strategy, and ensuring flawless execution and operations against the strategy. We have teams embedded in each of the major Ads business areas as well as global teams that work across the business areas. Team members are analytical and strategic, with a pragmatic sense of how to get things done.
