Senior Technical Program Manager, Creative Technology, Marketing

About the Role

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. This is a team of creatives, designers, technologists, event managers, and producers who focus on humanizing Google through brand experience. From our marquee events like Google I/O, Made by Google, and Brandcast, you will collaborate with teams across the company on real and virtual events, content and broadcasts, experiential campaigns, innovative digital experiences, and more.

• Partner with creative technologists during the ideation phase to assess production implications, including costs, access, and scalability.
• Build and lead effective cross-functional program teams, aligning executive stakeholders on technical priorities, resource needs, and de-risking strategies for unreleased AI products.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in a technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8 years of experience in program management.
• Experience in AI/ML model deployment lifecycles and associated resource requirements (latency, cost, availability).

Preferred Qualifications

• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to build consensus across cross-functional teams (Legal, Product, Engineering, Creative).
