Description
Lead annual planning across OpEx budgets and headcount planning, unifying and securing the required resources to enable the SPO organization. Manage resourcing mechanisms including headcount budgeting, models, escalations and mid-year budget upsides, engaging cross-functionally with SPO teams and finance partners. Lead the organization’s AI enablement journey by identifying impactful opportunities for AI adoption, and collaborating with engineering teams to staff and build new solutions. Establish a Business Intelligence framework, unifying key metrics across the organization, and developing an effective tracking and reporting methodology. Cultivate strong, collaborative partnerships with CSCO finance and other partner teams, acting as a trusted financial advisor to positively challenge assumptions and drive data-backed decisions.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.
To meet the massive business milestones ahead of us in this high-velocity era, AI2 must continuously rethink how we partner not only with key manufacturing suppliers, but also in the communities where we operate. To achieve this goal, the Strategic Partnerships Office (SPO) will be responsible for architecting, launching, and scaling a dual-focus partnership engine spanning both manufacturing and community ecosystems.
The SPO organization will operate at the intersection of industrial innovation, external affairs, and civic impact, creating bridges between Google’s technology capabilities and the real-world partners that extend our reach and mission.
The Strategy and Business Intelligence team unifies and enables SPO by structuring organizational priorities, securing vital resources, defining a clear AI vision, and establishing guardrails and impact measurement frameworks to drive overall success.
The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide.
We're the driving force behind Google's groundbreaking innovations, empowering the development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled computing power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking, Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.
Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
