You’ll work with stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks, manage project schedules, and communicate clearly with cross\-functional partners across the company.

You will develop overall Network Topology plans, compiling technical requirements for network assets such as fibre and leased wavelengths in order to meet forecast demand, while complying with Network Architecture guidelines. You will be expected to optimize Google’s Production Network for scalability, reliability, and cost efficiency while maintaining the ability to meet new product rollout in a timely manner. This will be accomplished through close cross\-functional collaboration and teamwork with Strategic Negotiators, varying Technical Program Managers and Network Engineers across multiple teams..

The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide.
