Program Manager III, Data Management, Google Data Centers

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 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.

Equipment Supply Chain's (ESC) mission is to orchestrate a resilient, scalable supply chain that guarantees predictable on-time delivery and continuous cost optimization.
