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 a Technical Program Manager focused on audio algorithms, you will keep an innovative engineering team firing on all cylinders. You will work closely with engineers, product managers, and CMs/ODMs/OEMs to get high-quality products built, tested and released on time. You will bridge the gap between critical technologies and the top-level system, coordinating many fast-changing, moving parts that come together as a product. You possess excellent communication skills and can answer all questions about schedules, status (including technical challenges) and next steps. You are responsible for identifying and managing risks, making sound judgments about quality, and stopping (or speeding up) development at the right time.
The Google Pixel team focuses on designing and delivering the world's most helpful mobile experience. The team works on shaping the future of Pixel devices and services through some of the most advanced designs, techniques, products, and experiences in consumer electronics. This includes bringing together the best of Google’s artificial intelligence, software, and hardware to build global smartphones and create transformative experiences for users across the world.
