Program Manager, Technical, Security Certification Silicon - Google

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.Our goal is to build a Google that looks like the world around us — and we want Googlers to stay and grow when they join us. As part of our efforts to build a Google for everyone, we build diversity, equity, and inclusion into our work and we aim to cultivate a sense of belonging throughout the company.

In this role you will identify the primary drivers (business, regulatory) for certification and manage security certification programs (Common Criteria, FIPS) from start to finish.

You will be the direct interface with the evaluation laboratory and the Certification Body and be responsible for providing all the evidence and material required for the certification.

You will work directly with all the stakeholders internally (engineering and corporate teams) to convey the requirement and ensure they are met while driving internal improvements and take decisions as needed to achieve success. Within the Security Assurance team you will have the support from security experts and a red team to help you achieve your objectives.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. We aim to make people's lives better through technology.
