You'll own programs that span cloud services, device software, and AI/ML-powered features across multiple device surfaces. If you thrive on navigating technical complexity, coordinating across organizations, and shipping features that customers use billions of times a month, this role is for you.
Key job responsibilities
Own end-to-end delivery of cross-functional programs across cloud engineering, device software, design, QA, and product teams
Drive launch readiness for device programs with tight deadlines and multiple dependencies
Partner with engineering to understand system architecture, identify risks early, and make informed trade-off recommendations
Manage cross-org dependencies across platform teams, partner orgs, and central infrastructure, driving commitments to closure rather than waiting on them
Build and maintain launch readiness mechanisms, status reporting, and escalation paths for leadership visibility
Coordinate model migrations, latency initiatives, and quality programs that require deep technical understanding of LLM-based and deterministic systems
Anticipate bottlenecks, drive escalation management, and balance customer experience quality with engineering constraints and timelines
Contribute to operational excellence by partnering with engineering on oncall reduction, automation, and GenAI-driven efficiency investments
A day in the life
You'll work across engineering managers, product managers, designers, and partner teams to ship features on devices launching to millions of customers. You'll track delivery across multiple workstreams simultaneously, dive into technical architecture when needed, flag risks before they become blockers, and keep programs moving through clear communication and relentless follow-through. You'll operate in a fast-paced environment where device launch dates don't move and quality bars are non-negotiable.
