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 Infrastructure Development and Delivery team designs, builds, and operates gigawatts of reliable, efficient, and flexible data centers around the world that power all Google services and advanced AI hardware. Within Google’s Data Center Operations Engineering organization serves as the central technical authority bridging upstream data center design/construction and 24x7 global fleet operations.

As a Technical Program Manager for Mechanical Operations Engineering, you will serve as the global point of escalation for complex mechanical infrastructure challenges across Google’s data center fleet. Embedded within the operations engineering pillar, you will lead a newly formed engineering support team that acts as the critical operational conduit between upstream design/construction stakeholders and downstream operations.

You will diagnose and lead tactical mechanical/thermal escalations while driving high-impact, global engineering projects designed to anticipate and mitigate operational risks in current and future designs. Your overarching goal is to optimize the end-to-end lifecycle of critical cooling and thermal infrastructure, reducing the level of operational excellence placed on local site teams while complementing the velocity of global scale.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

US: $192000 - $278000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits

Responsibilities

  • Act as the ultimate operational authority and escalation point for complex mechanical failures, thermal anomalies, hydraulic issues, and system-level cooling bottlenecks.
  • Scope, prioritize, and drive multi-million dollar mechanical upgrades, remediation, or retrofit projects across the global fleet, taking ownership from concept to field operationalization.
  • Lead specialized mechanical remediation and continuous improvement programs to eradicate bottlenecks, ensuring field telemetry, maintenance pain points, and post-mortem learnings inform upstream iterations.
  • Provide critical mechanical engineering judgment to proxy senior leadership in technical disputes regarding operational feasibility, redundancy, fluid dynamics, and risk acceptance.
  • Foster seamless integration between local SMEs, (regional plant engineers, construction/deployment engineering, and system/design engineering) to drive Design for operations principles.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
