As a Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish – working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It’s your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.

The Leased Asset Management (LAM) program serves as the central steward for Google’s portfolio of leased data center obligations under executed contracts (leases) that provide capacity to the overall Google space/power portfolio.
