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.

Our goal is to build a Google that looks like the world around us — and we want Googlers to stay and grow when they join us. As part of our efforts to build a Google for everyone, we build diversity, equity, and inclusion into our work and we aim to cultivate a sense of belonging throughout the company.

In this role, you will make safety as top priority and bring long-lasting value to the entire life-cycle of data center builds in order to create an environment for all workers to return home safely. You will foster a EHS culture by establishing clear expectations, open communication, the engagement of all workers, safe work behaviors, and continual improvement. You will build and resource a program that touches every worker that comes on our sites and continues to live on with them at home and throughout their careers.
