About Us Artificial Intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At Google DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.
Snapshot The role of the Program Management Team is to organise and enable our teams to be the best at what they do and to make fast-paced progress towards our goal. We continually pursue sustainable ways to optimize our work, striving to ensure we cultivate an environment where people can be both highly collaborative and deeply creative, making responsible and groundbreaking research progress at pace. We build positive relationships with teams, bringing clarity to ambiguity and providing stability during change. We provide expertise in various program management techniques to structure abstract and complex research, engineering and operational projects across the business. We use our coaching skills to support and enable people and teams to do their best work together. We continually deepen our domain knowledge, working alongside researchers and engineers to ensure all our work is advancing towards our mission.
The Role This is an FTE role for the Sustainability Program at Google DeepMind. Our program’s mission is to revolutionize environmental sustainability with AI. We have an active portfolio of projects where we are applying AI towards challenging problems in grid operations, renewable energy, weather modeling, biodiversity, and agriculture. We work on both real-world applications as well as root-node research problems, aiming to achieve fundamental breakthroughs using AI to benefit science and society. We maintain a high standard of rigor for our scientific work, and are a passionate team of researchers motivated to achieve scientific breakthroughs and benefit humanity.
This role will stretch across one or more research projects in our sustainability portfolio. As a Technical Program Manager on research projects, you will be responsible for managing internal operations and external launches (of papers, code, products, etc.), ensuring research outputs are well-organized, aligned with our organizational priorities, time-managed, and ambitious in nature. You will have opportunities to both operate at highly strategic levels–helping define and manage research roadmaps, partnerships, and stakeholder groups–as well as technical and operational levels–building dashboards to track analytics, processing legal and security reviews, establishing communication channels and managing cross-functional meetings.
In addition to managing aspects of one or more research projects, you will have opportunities to contribute to defining operational processes and reporting, facilitating governance meetings, and influencing horizontal strategic discussions across the program. You will work across disciplines and within a highly-global team that welcomes collaborators across our US, UK, India, and European locations.
Key responsibilities:
Partnership Management: Occasionally build and manage external partnerships with government, non-profit, academic and industry organizations, when necessary for delivering research project impact.
About You In order to set you up for success as a Technical Program Manager at Google DeepMind, we look for the following skills and experience:
Technical & Strategic Acumen
A technical degree or strong working knowledge in a mix of fields such as computer science, AI, data science, energy, weather, climate, or biodiversity.
Proven industry experience partnering with technical leaders to develop strategy and launch complex products.
Exceptional technical communication skills, with the ability to distill complex ideas into clear and concise takeaways for diverse audiences.
The practical ability to use AI tools effectively to increase efficiency and innovation in your role, combined with a strong ethical understanding of AI's limitations, risks, and responsible use.
Project & Program Leadership
Expertise in project and program management, with the ability to navigate ambiguity and adapt plans and strategies in response to changing project conditions.
Experience supporting research teams of various sizes and at different lifecycle stages.
A track record of solving complex challenges and implementing scalable, sustainable solutions.
Collaboration & Adaptability
The ability to build meaningful relationships with key stakeholders and organize them into effective working groups with clear roles and responsibilities.
Experience supporting teams in fast-paced, constantly changing environments, flexibly modifying and scaling processes to provide structure.
Vision & Passion
A passion and relentless commitment for advancing AI and delivering innovative scientific and product solutions to some of the world's most important environmental sustainability challenges.
In addition, the following would be an advantage:
