Technical Program Manager II, Data Center Planning, Machine Learning

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.

• Offer clear, concise, and logical judgment and actionable recommendations to partners and executives in a timely manner regarding Google’s data center capacity needs.
• Use data to identify planning solutions and provide advice to business leaders across the organization.
• Codify, maintain, and update Google PAs’ technical and business requirements in partnership with Product Area Resource Managers (PARMs), and use them to influence execution and Google’s spend and capacity allocation decisions.
• Implement new DC power planning initiatives, including automation with engineering support and cross-functional policy changes.
• Work with the customer to manage and resolve all DC capacity related issues and escalations.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in a technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 2 years of experience in program management.
• Experience in one of the following planning areas (e.g., capacity planning, supply planning, demand planning, or data center planning).
• Experience in data modeling and analysis.

Preferred qualifications

• 5 years of experience in capacity planning, strategic operations planning, data analytics, inventory optimization, or management/operations consulting.
• 2 years of experience managing cross-functional or cross-team projects.
• Experience collaborating and influencing stakeholders spanning across multiple organizations and different levels of responsibilities.
• Demonstrated ability to take complex, ambiguous topics and create compelling narratives and present them to leadership.
• Ability to shift between direct detailed analysis and big picture thinking and customizing communication based on the audience.
• Excellent data analysis skills (e.g., Sheets, SQL).
