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.
Google is seeking a Lead Portfolio Manager for Energy Contracts and Asset Management to support the sustainable, reliable, and efficient scaling of its expanding data center footprint. Driven by the rapid growth of AI and next-generation cloud services, this role is critical in ensuring that physical infrastructure scales in alignment with the company's bold carbon-free energy goals.
In this position, you will manage a multi-region portfolio of power purchase agreements (PPAs), utility tariffs, and clean energy contracts. Responsibilities include monitoring asset performance, proactively identifying risks to capacity, and ensuring full contractual compliance. To streamline operations, you will leverage artificial intelligence and design automated, scalable tools that transform complex operational data into actionable business narratives for leadership.
You will bring deep expertise in Asia Pacific energy markets, particularly across project development, operations, supply contracting, utility tariffs, rate structures, and PPAs. You should be skilled at identifying operational improvements, scaling portfolio operations through technological innovation, and generating strategic insights to guide executive decision-making.
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.

Responsibilities
- Partner with internal and external stakeholders to maximize the value of Google’s global energy contracts (PPAs, electricity supply agreements, and utility tariffs) while ensuring all performance metrics and compliance requirements are met or improved.
- Identify, design, and deploy AI solutions, custom automation, and scripting to streamline contract ingestion, automate performance tracking, and scale portfolio operations across APAC.
- Synthesize large datasets of complex operational, market, and financial data into clear, compelling narratives and visual presentations that deliver actionable strategic insights back to the business.
- Own and automate energy portfolios spend tracking, budgeting, and analysis to clearly communicate drivers of energy spend variance at scale.
- Coordinate with multi-functional experts across Google (including Finance, Legal, Sustainability, Site Selection, and Data Center Operations) to ensure alignment on energy goals and project execution.
