ABOUT THE JOB:

Google's leadership team hand-picks thorny business challenges, and members of
BizOps work in small teams to find solutions. As part of this team you fully
immerse yourself in data collection, draw insight from analysis, and then zoom
out to develop compelling, synthesized recommendations. Taking strategy one step
further, you also persuasively communicate your recommendations to senior-level
executives, roll-up your sleeves to help drive implementation and check back-in
to see the impact of your recommendations.

The AI Foundations Finance team is at the epicenter of Google's transition to a
Cloud-Native, AI-first enterprise. We provide dedicated financial stewardship,
quantitative modeling, and technical program leadership for the modernization of
Google's internal technical infrastructure and corporate workflows. Our mission
is to architect the economic frameworks and data foundations that accelerate
Google’s Tech Transformation and power the velocity of the entire company.

As the centralized Business Data Scientist on this team, you will serve as our
quantitative modeling, telemetry, and analytics architect across all AI
Foundations Finance pillars. Working closely with Finance and Engineering
leadership and partnering directly with our Technical Program Managers (TPMs),
you will build the unified data foundations, predictive forecasts, and Return on
Investment (ROI) frameworks that guide executive decision-making across
cloud-native developer velocity, hybrid cloud interoperability, next-generation
agent infrastructure, and Frontier AI data investments.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills,
experience, and relevant education or training.

US: $138000 - $197000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits
