As part of our efforts to build a Google for everyone, we build diversity, equity, and inclusion into our work and we aim to cultivate a sense of belonging throughout the company.
The Data Governance and Optimization team is a horizontal function within the Global Network Delivery team that builds the production network for Google. The team’s mission is to develop global solutions to optimize network reliability, delivery, and efficiency.
