About the job

Product and Business Strategy Leaders bring together teams across Google’s functions to help products execute optimally. Our team pushes Google to scale at key points that refine our products and infrastructure by executing efficiently, bringing solid business sense and sound judgment, and working effectively across organizational lines.

Our roles often include components of strategy (e.g. analyzing and understanding new trends in the industry, building business plans), operations (e.g. running the cadence of organizations, connecting the operating lines between our functions), and communications. Our team partners with senior leadership to run important functions that cross-cut our existing organizations and deliver high impact projects. We help Engineers, PMs, UX, and all of our other functions to build amazing products that delight our users, and then get those products into their hands.

In this role, you will work and interface with various parts of the banking/payments ecosystem, including networks, issuers, gateways, and financial technology to deliver the best solutions globally. You will enable safe and easy payments for Google users and to drive growth across all of our magnetizing products. You will be responsible for payments and commerce behind different Google products (e.g., Play, Ads, Cloud, YouTube, Hardware) operating in markets around the world.
 

Whether it is paying online with Autofill, using tap and pay in stores, or using the Google Pay app, the Payments team at Google is focused on making payments simple, seamless, and secure. In addition to consumer payment technologies, the Payments team also powers the money movement between Google and its consumers and businesses.

Responsibilities

• Partner with Product Manager/Engineering to drive business impact (e.g., business growth, cost reduction, improvements to user experience, mitigating risks).
• Deliver data-driven product insights to shape product strategy, design, execution and optimization.
• Design and run product experiments and other product optimizations to land product launches.
• Create business cases and forecasts and measure the impact of new launches.
• Communicate findings, recommendations, and Objectives and Key Results (OKR) metrics updates to executive payments leadership and other internal and external stakeholders.
