A problem isn't truly solved until it's solved for all. That's why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe.

In this role, you will play a key role in supporting regional and new product launches by optimizing cost, speed, and customer satisfaction with global logistics providers, delivering regional elements of global projects, as well as managing regional specific initiatives. You will also drive improvement focusing on cost and data visualization and will manage the finances for warehouse operations.

Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users.
