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.

The mission for the Identity and Access Management team within Cloud Foundations is to deliver the most critical, high-scale, and resilient security controls and policy systems that serve as the cornerstone of Google Cloud Platform, while embedding policy intelligence and establishing AI-ready security guardrails that empower autonomous AI agents.

In this role, you will act as the single trusted point of accountability for complex infrastructure delivery, owning executive stakeholder alignment, proactively managing dependencies, and establishing centralized governance to ensure on-time delivery.

Responsibilities:

• Operate in an outcome driven mindset to land the organization's goals. Drive complex, high-visibility security, platform and AI/ML programs cutting across multiple GCP organizations and Product Areas (including Core, Workspace, Cloud AI, and rest of GCP).
• Establish a visible cadence for portfolio reviews, decision making, prioritization, dependency and resource management, whereby improvements are measurable and the impact can be recognized.
• Build strong partnerships across Google as necessary and leverage your credibility to simplify execution and unblock progress. Proactively identify project risks, streamline cross-organisation escalations, and deliver clear status visibility to executive leadership.
  
• Implement best practices and program frameworks to remove operational friction and scale engineering capacity across teams.
