About the Role
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. Within Global Infrastructure and Energy (GIE), you will partner with developers and internal cross-functional stakeholders to oversee the full lifecycle of large-scale data center projects, specifically focusing on planning, pre-construction, and agreement management. In this role, you will align design engineering, procurement, and construction efforts to optimize capital expenditure and ensure rigorous cost and schedule governance.
Responsibilities
- Lead the intake, planning, and pre-construction phases of large-scale data centers, partnering with developers to deliver critical capacity aligned with design intent and construction execution strategies.
- Drive cost and schedule governance across multi-billion dollar capital expenditure (CapEx) portfolios.
- Oversee agreement management strategies and transform funding models to ensure capital allocation aligns with verified planning and construction milestones.
- Advocate the use of parametric cost modeling and analytics to optimize real estate development and building design, using data to predict risks and standardize elements for capital efficiency and speed.
- Act as the strategic linchpin between developers, design engineering, procurement, and internal stakeholders, leading critical agreement negotiations and pivoting contracting methodologies (e.g., GMP to lump sum) to secure best-value procurement.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Architecture, Engineering, Construction Management, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 8 years of experience in program management within the construction, real estate, or data center industry including site selection, due diligence, and permitting.
- 8 years of experience in agreement negotiation, procurement strategies, and using data visualization tools to track program performance and manage vendor relationships.
- 8 years of experience in strategy and cost governance, utilizing value engineering and parametric modeling to optimize capital expenditure (CapEx) and contracting methodologies.
- 8 years of experience managing cross-functional projects.
- 10 years of experience managing large-scale capital programs, leading intake, planning, and pre-construction for multi-billion dollar infrastructure.
- Experience driving strategic cost governance, utilizing value engineering and design-to-cost methodologies to optimize Capital Expenditure (CapEx) and deliver projects within strict budgetary constraints.
- Experience acting as an owner’s representative, leading teams across Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) to deliver complex industrial projects without direct authority.
- Deep technical expertise in the design, construction, and commissioning of critical facilities, with a proven ability to partner with developers to align design intent with constructability and operational readiness.
