As a Technical Program Manager at Google, you lead complex, multi-disciplinary engineering projects using your engineering expertise. You plan requirements with internal customers and usher projects through the entire project lifecycle. This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating them to project stakeholders. You're equally at home explaining your team's analyses and recommendations to executives as you are discussing the technical trade-offs in product development with engineers.\nUsing your extensive technical and leadership expertise, you manage projects of various size and scope, identifying future opportunities, improving processes and driving the technical directions of your programs.\nThe Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) Safety and Alignment Team is the main group at DeepMind working directly on technical approaches to existential risk from AI systems.\nAs a Senior Technical Program Manager for AGI Safety on the Safety and Behavior Technical Program Manager (TPgM) Team, you will lead the operational design and technical execution safeguarding Gemini against extreme and frontier risks.\nIn this role, you will bridge the gap between alignment research and production partnering with research teams to translate cutting-edge safety theories into practical control mechanisms. You will drive end-to-end delivery across the model lifecycle, scaling training and evaluation infrastructure while implementing robust monitoring frameworks to detect, measure, and mitigate critical risks in advanced systems\nArtificial intelligence will be one of humanity’s most transformative inventions. At Google DeepMind, we are a pioneering AI lab with exceptional interdisciplinary teams focused on advancing AI development to solve complex global challenges and accelerate high-quality product innovation for billions of users. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, ensuring safety and ethics are always our highest priority.\nWe are pushing the boundaries across multiple domains. Our global teams offer diverse learning opportunities and varied career pathways for those driven to achieve exceptional results through collective effort.\nIndividual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.US: $256000 - $278000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits\nLearn more about benefits at Google.\nResponsibilities\nDive into technical details, evaluating safety losses and metrics to confirm they accurately measure the target problems, and develop solutions where they fall short.\nManage the full portfolio. Oversee a program spanning near-term model development through long-term research in AGI Safety, Alignment, and Control.\nDrive organizational efficiency. Streamline execution, implement tooling improvements, and proactively resolve blockers for research and engineering teams while partnering with technical leads on strategies that support team growth and culture.\nCoordinate across Gemini. Align groups (e.g., release, model behavior, training) on shared plans and timelines, building consensus and influencing outcomes without direct authority.\nCommunicate upward. Manage high-visibility executive reviews, giving leadership clear, consistent visibility into program status and risk.\nQualifications\nMinimum qualifications:\nBachelor's degree in a technical field, or equivalent practical experience.\n8 years of experience in program or project management.\nPreferred qualifications:\nUnderstanding of threat models, risks, and mitigations for AGI safety and alignment, with the ability to connect day-to-day project priorities to broader organizational safety goals.\nUnderstanding of large language models and AI agents, including knowledge of model behavior, control, evaluation, and other alignment-related topics in machine learning research and applied practice.\nExcellent written and verbal communication skills, with a proven ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly and persuasively to audiences, including executive leadership and cross-functional partners.\nDemonstrated success driving fast-paced program execution, consistently landing high-quality deliverables on ambitious timelines in ambiguous, rapidly evolving research environments.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4522,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["LLM & Generative AI","Foundation Models","AI Research Labs","AI for Science"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-29T07:35:34Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":7,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-06T05:45:30Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/google-deepmind-senior-technical-program-manager-agi-safety-and-alignment","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/google-deepmind-senior-technical-program-manager-agi-safety-and-alignment.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-07T02:08:16Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3502,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":1498,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-08T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fgoogle-deepmind-senior-technical-program-manager-agi-safety-and-alignment"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fgoogle-deepmind-senior-technical-program-manager-agi-safety-and-alignment"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fgoogle-deepmind-senior-technical-program-manager-agi-safety-and-alignment"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/google-deepmind-senior-technical-program-manager-agi-safety-and-alignment\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fgoogle-deepmind-senior-technical-program-manager-agi-safety-and-alignment"}]}
