The role
From Google's own posting.
Artificial intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts, and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.
To turn Google’s product scale into a lasting advantage, DeepMind requires a strong, two-way bridge between our frontier AI research and Google’s global product ecosystems.
As a Technical Program Manager for Cross-Product Engagements, you will build and scale the operating model connecting DeepMind’s research teams with Google’s major product divisions. Stepping above day-to-day launch execution, you will focus on the broader strategic ecosystem helping product teams adopt frontier models and shared AI capabilities faster, while channeling real-world product insights and evaluation signals back into research. By connecting model advancements with long-term product roadmaps, you will ensure DeepMind and our product partners maintain a shared technical goal and seamless alignment across major company priorities.
