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.

In this role, you will partner with operations teams to manage the execution of the forecasting process and enhance solutions that optimize logistics planning across Google Cloud's supply chain. A key focus is driving forecast accuracy, improving transparency of methods, and incorporating operational realities into the analysis. This involves managing the forecast cadence, facilitating cross-functional reviews, and ensuring process alignment.
