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.

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.

As a Sustaining Technical Program Manager, you will be the cornerstone of operations communication with technical cross-functional teams in the sustaining/mass production period. You will guide a team of professionals to ensure products are designed and built to Google standards. You will work in a fast-moving environment, as you work with teams to solve problems that gate production line operations to improve the quality and productivity.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.

Responsibilities

• Identify and ensure ongoing technical risks are identified and mitigated or resolved.
• Manage the operations side for line layout, line bring up, fixture buy off, and line qualifications for ramp.
• Manage the product yield, quality performance at the Contract Manufacturers (CM) site, and mass production yield and performance updates.
• Guide CMs to strengthen their manufacturing process control. Set KPIs and goals for CMs for continuous improvements. Lead lessons learnt practice and feedback to cross-functional teams.
• Provide design review (e.g. Tolerance Stack Up Analysis (TSA) and Design For Assembly (DFA)) to the Engineering team, and early involvement from the New Product Introduction (NPI) stage (e.g., EVT, DVT, PVT) through mass production.
