At Google, we follow a simple but vital premise: "Focus on the user and all else will follow." UX Programs & Operations at Google drive projects within our UX organizations by increasing communication and connection points, streamlining the UX design process, and driving a culture of user centered development.
Google User Experience (UX) is made up of multi-disciplinary teams of UX Designers, Researchers, Writers, Content Strategists, Program Managers, and Engineers: we care deeply about the people who use our products. The UX team plays an integral part in gathering insights about the attitudes, emotions, and behaviors of people who use our products to inspire and inform design. We collaborate closely with each other and with engineering and product management to create industry-leading products that deliver value for the people who use them, and for Google’s businesses.
As a UX Program Manager (UX Programs & Operations), you will combine expert project management skills with a passion for user experience to help your team improve the design of products that are used by billions of users. You’ll plan projects, define milestones, assess risks, create actionable insights, and ensure projects meet deadlines. You’ll harmonize the work of UX Designers, Researchers, Content Strategists, UX Engineers, and other UX disciplines, while also working closely with our Engineering and Product Manager cross-functional partners, to drive UX team objectives and create innovative experiences for our business, products, and users.
The Shopping team’s mission is to make Google the best place for people to start their shopping and travel journeys, and to support merchants in reaching billions of prospective customers.
User experience is at the forefront of how we create intuitive, innovative, and beautiful products that people love. We strive to learn and understand our users’ needs, behaviors, and emotions to gather insights that inform product strategy and design. Our UX teams include designers, researchers, content strategists, and engineers who are passionate about quality, usability, and simplicity. We work on collaborative teams to solve complex challenges and craft experiences that highlight our products’ unique capabilities and personalities. Our work touches billions while exemplifying a key principle that is core to Google’s philosophy: “Focus on the user and all else will follow.”
**Responsibilities**:
- Lead and partner with User Experience team leadership in key project decision-making, including program prioritization, requirements gathering, scheduling, resource allocation, and coordination of teams and approval processes.
- Oversee the User Experience design and review process.
- Own quarterly planning and prioritization with User Experience team leadership and cross-functional partners to drive quarterly decision-making around priorities and resource allocation.
- Identify team needs with regards to process, tools, documentation, and asset management, driving required changes to make sure the User Experience team is enabled to create excellent user experiences, and make the most impact.
- Establish communications strategy and cadence to cross-functional team leads and senior management regarding program status, resource requirements, risks, and priorities.
