Business Operations Program Manager, Data Center Tech

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.

As a Business Operations Program Manager, you will play a crucial role in overseeing the maintenance agreements of Data Center related systems. As a stakeholder, you will lead cost control, contractor management, and procurement projects, collaborating with other stakeholders like the Environment, Health, and Safety department.

In addition, you will actively support local Data Center Technicians by ensuring they are informed regarding relevant processes. You will serve as a local escalation point for finance-related matters. You will support site management and other business program managers in maintaining metrics, providing data, and conducting analyses to facilitate informed decision-making.
