Our team pushes Google to scale at key points that refine our products and infrastructure by executing efficiently, bringing solid business sense and sound judgment, and working effectively across organizational lines.

Our roles often include components of strategy (e.g. analyzing and understanding new trends in the industry, building business plans), operations (e.g. running the cadence of organizations, connecting the operating lines between our functions), and communications. Our team partners with senior leadership to run important functions that cross-cut our existing organizations and deliver high impact projects. We help Engineers, PMs, UX, and all of our other functions to build amazing products that delight our users, and then get those products into their hands.

The Strategic Response for Emerging Regulations team is responsible for developing strategies that uphold Google’s values around user trust in response to emerging regulations.

As a Manager on the Trust Strategy team, you will be at the forefront of shaping how Google's Knowledge and Information (K&I) products navigate complex AI policy, ecosystem, and regulatory challenges.
