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.

In this role, you will play a critical role in ensuring products and services are inclusive and usable by individuals with disabilities. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop and execute comprehensive accessibility programs, and ensure compliance with accessibility standards and regulations.

As a Technical Program Manager on the Consumer Hardware Regulatory Compliance team, you will be responsible for ensuring that Google Consumer products meet or exceed accessibility regulatory requirements.
