Technical Program Manager, Information Assurance and Compliance

About the Role: Technical Program Manager, Information Assurance and Compliance at Google Quantum AI

As a Technical Program Manager, Information Assurance and Compliance at Google, you will leverage your expertise to lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from inception to completion. You will collaborate with stakeholders to define requirements, identify potential risks, manage project timelines, and ensure clear communication with cross-functional partners across the company. Your comfort in explaining technical analyses and recommendations to executives is as strong as your ability to discuss product development trade-offs with engineers.

You will be instrumental in establishing an organization-wide Information Security (infosec) program within Quantum AI. This includes defining and enforcing information assurance and compliance standards and processes across various workstreams, drafting and organizing policies, conducting crucial outreach and training, and addressing strategic infosec priorities. Key focus areas will involve time-sensitive product workflows, third-party data sharing initiatives, and export control regulations. This role demands close collaboration with engineering, product, and compliance teams within Quantum AI and the broader Alphabet ecosystem to meet all information assurance requirements, thereby unlocking near-term, high-priority research and business opportunities.

Google Quantum AI's mission is to build a large-scale, error-corrected quantum computer to solve classically intractable problems, advancing quantum computing capabilities and enabling meaningful applications.
