Data Center Services Manager

Google's projects, like our users, span the globe and require managers to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the unique engineering challenges we face daily. As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you lead complex, multi-disciplinary engineering projects using your engineering expertise. You plan requirements with internal customers and usher projects through the entire project lifecycle. This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating them to project stakeholders. You're equally at home explaining your team's analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical trade-offs in product development with engineers.
Using your extensive technical and leadership expertise, you manage various Engineering-specific programs and teams.

As the Data Center Services Manager, you will be fully involved in nearly every aspect of the design development and localisation, procurement, schedule and cost management, delivery, commissioning, handover and close-out of the data center projects, including facility upgrades within operational data centres. You will partner with our local/regional facility managers, plant engineers, our design, project controls, delivery and commissioning teams, to develop scalable solutions at pace.
