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.

Responsibilities

• Drive product definition and architecture selection, in collaboration with design and ID teams, via early Design For Excellence (DFx) engagement in areas such as precision electronic assembly, automation, sealing, adhesives, metal fabrication and finishing, injection molding, display design, PCBA design and fabrication, and leak testing.
• Conduct identification, investigation, analysis, and integration of new manufacturing processes, technology, and equipment in support of program objectives.
• Drive manufacturing process and fixture development, in collaboration with manufacturing partners, by identifying functional requirements, researching, designing, modifying, and testing manufacturing methods and equipment, and conferring with equipment providers.
• Lead improvement of manufacturing efficiency via analysis and planning of work flow, space requirements, production capacity, and equipment layout.
