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.
In this role, you will lead all aspects of supply chain readiness and execution for critical data center equipment. You will focus on product types, including construction/building modules and high-value equipment that form the backbone of the Google Data Center fleet. You will be the primary liaison between Google and its suppliers, driving end-to-end (E2E) material, inventory, and production readiness from product inception through mass deployment. You will leverage your domain expertise in supply chain, manufacturing, and procurement to implement processes and systems that ensure the efficient, timely, and high-quality delivery of products to our global data centers. You will have the ability to create, educate, and promote supply chain principles and best practices with both internal partner organizations and external suppliers, ultimately enabling Google to meet its ambitious data center build-out goals.Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry.
