About the job
At Google, we put our users first. The world is always changing, so we need Product Managers who are continuously adapting and excited to work on products that affect millions of people every day.
In this role, you will work cross-functionally to guide products from conception to launch by connecting the technical and business worlds. You can break down complex problems into steps that drive product development.
One of the many reasons Google consistently brings innovative, world-changing products to market is because of the collaborative work we do in Product Management. Our team works closely with creative engineers, designers, marketers, etc. to help design and develop technologies that improve access to the world's information. We're responsible for guiding products throughout the execution cycle, focusing specifically on analyzing, positioning, packaging, promoting, and tailoring our solutions to our users.
Commerce is turning agentic. Google's Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) is an open standard that lets AI agents, merchants, payment service providers and credential providers work together, covering everything from discovery to checkout and post-purchase.
UCP already powers native checkout on AI Mode in Search and Gemini, and merchants stay the merchant of record.
As Group PM for Agentic Commerce and UCP, you'll set the multi-year strategy that makes UCP the default industry standard for agentic commerce.
You'll lead protocol evolution, ecosystem adoption, vertical expansion and cross-Product Area partnerships with Search, Gemini, Geo and Payments.
"The Google Commerce team is driving the shift toward agentic commerce-moving beyond static interactions to build intelligent, adaptive shopping experiences. By bringing Gemini into AI Mode in Search and the Gemini app, we're making shopping even more intuitive. Powered by the Google Shopping Graph's 60B+ listings, our team is helping to establish open industry standards like the Universal Commerce Protocol. We're building shopping experiences across Google, including Search, the Gemini app, YouTube, and Ads, to help people discover and buy products from the brands they love and trust on Google.
