Product Manager II, Google Wallet Wearables and Access Control

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.

The Google Wallet team focuses on creating a secure digital wallet that digitizes critical credentials—including payment cards, loyalty, identity, transit, and physical access. In this role, you will bring together two charters: approximately 60% of your focus will be dedicated to Wallet on wearables, and 40% dedicated to Access Control. You will operate as the product owner of two distinct portfolios, collaborating with dedicated engineering teams to innovate across Wear OS, RTOS fitness trackers, and physical access control ecosystems.

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