About the role

About the job

When leading companies choose Google Cloud, it's a huge win for spreading the power of cloud computing globally. Once educational institutions, government agencies, and other businesses sign on to use Google Cloud products, you come in to facilitate making their work more productive, mobile, and collaborative. You listen and deliver what is most helpful for the customer. You assist fellow sales Googlers by problem-solving key technical issues for our customers. You liaise with the product marketing management and engineering teams to stay on top of industry trends and devise enhancements to Google Cloud products.

The Google Forge Team partners with our most strategic customers to bring their transformative goals to life. In the agentic era, enterprise data architectures must evolve from passive Systems of Intelligence built for human-scale reporting into active, governed "Systems of Action" engineered for agent-scale autonomy.

In this role, you will lead the end-to-end architectural design and engineering of next-generation agentic data platforms—unifying operational and analytical data estates, open multimodal lakehouses, semantic knowledge catalogs, and graph reasoning to ground and scale autonomous AI agents. You will play a key leadership role in driving solutions from initial architecture through enterprise security, governance, and production readiness, while mentoring team members and shaping the strategic direction of our reusable engineering assets. Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
