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.

For decades, the computing revolution has reshaped our world driven by

breakthroughs in compute, connectivity, mobile, and now, AI. Google's XR team is at the forefront of the next major leap – the convergence of AI and XR. This is more than just new devices – it's about reimagining how we interact with the world around us. We're building a future where

lightweight XR devices like smart glasses and headsets pair with helpful AI to augment human intelligence, offering personalized, conversational, and contextually aware experiences.

Responsibilities

• Lead commercial governance, wafer pricing, and capacity reservation with silicon foundries, Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Tests (OSAT) vendors, and fabless chipmakers.
• Establish dynamic pricing models and strategic inventory buffers for volatile memory commodities, including LPDDR and UFS storage.
• Drive engineering second-sourcing, pin-compatible component qualification, and schematic review to eliminate single-point supply vulnerabilities.
• Manage perception sensor roadmaps, RFQ evaluations, total cost of ownership negotiations, and quarterly business reviews.
• Coordinate silicon allocations, pricing pass-throughs, and material fulfillment across internal product teams and Asian manufacturing ODMs.
