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 Cloud ML Compute Services (MCS) team defines and drives the overall Cloud ML Compute IaaS and IaaS+ product offering and technical strategy. We enable our customers with the best AI/ML Infra in the world for talent powered by TPUs, GPUs.

As a Technical Program Manager, you will remove the bottleneck of complex cluster setup through automation, so AI/ML researchers and engineers, cloud architects, and IT admins can focus on their end goals rather than configuration. You will mitigate slowdowns in distributed training through optimized workload placement and understanding of physical data center networks. You will manage job queues and ensure efficient resource allocation through its managed Slurm environment. You will provide observability into all cluster components and an evolving topology view for cluster health.

We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably.
