Responsibilities - Define and drive the multi-year technical roadmap to optimize Trusted Partner Cloud (TPC) operations, systematically reducing cognitive load, toil, and operational risks for both Google engineering teams and external partner operators.
- Develop and implement operational strategies that minimize correlated failures across isolated sovereign universes, ensuring that operational load scales sublinearly as new regions are launched.
- Lead the technical convergence and integration of turn-up graphs to streamline new region and service deployments, providing senior technical oversight for critical production and staging environments.
- Lead the design and adoption of AI/ML solutions-including in-universe agentic tooling and RAG-driven diagnostics-to shift operations from manual intervention to policy-supervised automation.
- Partner with VPs, engineering leads, and partner operator teams to establish clear roles, align on incident response protocols, and drive the adoption of sustainable operational models across complex organizational structures.
