Practice Architect, Private Equity, Google Cloud

Google Google · Big Tech · New York, NY +3

This role is for a Global Practice Architect for Private Equity within Google Cloud. The primary focus is on developing and managing Go-to-Market (GTM) strategies, including sales assets, orchestration models, and business value propositions, to drive growth in the Private Equity sector. The role involves strategic planning, cross-functional collaboration, and customer interaction to understand and adapt to market needs. While the role mentions "emerging technologies, methodologies, and solutions in the cloud/IT technology space (e.g., generative AI)" as a preferred qualification, the core responsibilities and required experience are centered around GTM strategy and execution in the cloud and private equity domains, not direct AI/ML development or research.

  4. Oversee the GTM PE portfolio, continuously monitoring business performance, diagnosing issues, and recommending new approaches based on results and data-driven insights.
