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.
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
• Drive activities to ensure prospective products and process shortcomings are identified and mitigated.
• Develop manufacturing and New Product Introduction (NPI) processes via cross-functional collaboration with Product Design, Quality, and Operations teams to ensure excellent manufacturability and product quality.
• Work with Contract Manufacturing teams on Product development innovations, evaluate existing factory processes, and identify opportunities for savings and improvement through the use of automation.
• Assess manufacturing processes through the use of statistical methods and Six Sigma techniques, define data collection requirements, identify root causes of yield loss, manufacturing process non-conformities, and implement necessary corrective actions.
