Why we read it this way (8)
This role is a Technical Program Manager focused on technical education and enablement — it is not a pure software engineering or people-management role. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is the best fit given the hybrid nature; 11-3021 (Computer and Information Systems Managers) is a plausible runner-up given the program leadership scope, but the role has no explicit direct-report or budget-ownership framing.
The posting lists three possible work locations: Sunnyvale, CA; Kirkland, WA; and New York, NY. Sunnyvale is used as the primary CBSA; the role is not fully remote.
Bachelor's degree in a technical field is listed as a minimum qualification, but the posting explicitly accepts 'equivalent practical experience' as a substitute, so the degree requirement is set to None.
The '8 years of experience in program management' drives the overall years minimum. The '5 years of experience developing and delivering technical curriculum' is a separate, named-activity gate captured as a skill.
'Experience building and deploying AI solutions … including experience with AI Agents, Vibe Coding, and other building blocks for AI systems' is listed under Minimum qualifications. 'Vibe Coding' is an informal/emerging term rather than a canonical named tool, so it is not emitted as a standalone skill; AI Agents is the canonical named technology captured from that requirement.
Preferred qualifications include GCP platform services, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, Google AI ecosystem experience, and GenAI/upskilling track record — all marked as preferred.
Compensation is stated as $192,000–$279,000/year plus a 20% bonus target and equity; only the base salary range is captured in the comp fields as that is the directly quoted figure.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): program management, technical curriculum development.
