About the job
At Google, we put our users first. The world is always changing, so we need Product Managers who are continuously adapting and excited to work on products that affect millions of people every day.
In this role, you will work cross-functionally to guide products from conception to launch by connecting the technical and business worlds. You can break down complex problems into steps that drive product development.
One of the many reasons Google consistently brings innovative, world-changing products to market is because of the collaborative work we do in Product Management.

Each product area has a dedicated engineering team and independent roadmap. This is a unique opportunity for an ambitious Product Manager to operate as the product owner of two distinct portfolios, gaining career-broadening exposure across different domains.
