Job Abstract

People Operations strives to revolutionize human resources the same way that Google has revolutionized search. We are helping to find, grow and keep the remarkable assemblage of talent who are our Googlers. You'll be an advocate of Google's culture and values, partnering with our business leaders to help them build their organizations and make sure all people decisions are based on data. Whether coaching our clients on how to lead their teams, navigating and resolving employee relations issues or managing programs that help develop our Googlers, you are exceptionally focused on putting them first, and being as clear and transparent as possible to help Googlers understand how people decisions get made.

The Google Cloud business is at the forefront of the AI revolution, and the Google Cloud HR team is working to shape our culture, advance the organization and accelerate growth. As a People Partner, you will address complex organizational challenges, aligning our solutions with Google Cloud's mission to digitally transform businesses through people-focused strategies. As integral members of the leadership team, we serve as thought leaders, implementing Google Cloud's People Strategy and empowering our organization to flourish.

The ML, Cloud Systems and AI organization is responsible for delivering outstanding compute, platforms and tools powering Google's AI-first products, research, and cloud at a scale. We build the technical foundation behind Google’s products as well as for Google Cloud’s compute and AI/ML offerings and manage the underlying design elements, developer platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Google.

Great just isn't good enough for our People Operations team (known elsewhere as "Human Resources"). We bring the world's most innovative people to Google and provide the programs that help them thrive. Whether recruiting the next Googler, refining our core programs, developing talent, or simply looking for ways to inject some more fun into the lives of our Googlers, we bring a data-driven approach that is reinventing the human resources field. You’ll play an essential role advancing a more diverse, accessible, equitable, and inclusive Google through our hiring, promotion, retention, and inclusion practices.
