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 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.

The Core team builds the technical foundation behind Google’s flagship products. We are owners and advocates for the underlying design elements, developer platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Google. These are the essential building blocks for excellent, safe, and coherent experiences for our users and drive the pace of innovation for every developer. We look across Google’s products to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems. As the Core team, we have a mandate and a unique opportunity to impact important technical decisions across the company.

Responsibilities

• Lead and execute complex, cross-functional projects within the Trustworthy Personalization (TP13n) organization, specifically driving the Universal Profile (UniPro) roadmap.
• Define and manage a program portfolio solving problems that target high business impact, focusing on foundational identity boundaries and personalization models.
• Establish a reliable and visible cadence for program reviews, prioritization, and technical dependencies across Engineering, Product, Data Science (DS) and User Experience Researcher (UXR).
• Build alliances with cross-organization (GIE) stakeholders to untangle ambiguous architectural requirements and establish clear milestones, delivery phases, and launch criteria for AI surfaces.
• Implement communication standards across the portfolio, identifying and mitigating critical path risks (privacy, compliance, resourcing) proactively to executive leadership.
