The Hardware Operations team is responsible for monitoring the state-of-the-art physical infrastructure behind Google's powerful search technology. As a Hardware Operations Manager, you will manage a team of Data Center Technicians. You will oversee the quality installation of server hardware and components and take charge of complicated installations/troubleshooting. Your team will install, configure, test, troubleshoot and maintain hardware (like servers and its components) and server software (like Google's Linux cluster). They will also take on the configuration of more complex components such as networks, routers, hubs, bridges, switches and networking protocols. They may lead small project teams on larger installations and develop project contingency plans. Google's groundbreaking search technology relies on a cutting-edge infrastructure, and the Server Operations team ensures it all runs smoothly. As a Server Operations Manager, you'll lead a team of skilled Data Center Technicians who are the backbone of this operation. You'll guide the team in the installation and maintenance of server hardware, networking equipment, and their components, all while troubleshooting challenges head-on. The team will be skilled in configuring and maintaining not just servers, but the entire network ecosystem – routers, switches, and the protocols that connect them all. You'll assist and ensure complex projects are navigated by removing road blocks and developing plans to keep things running efficiently. In this role, you'll be key to the success of the data center, proactively monitoring performance, anticipating potential issues, and collaborating closely with the area lead, site manager, peer OMs, and partnering teams like DCOps, Security, and GSO-L to ensure optimal operational efficiency. The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Not stated - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 13, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 23, 2026 - Listed for: 10 days - Location: Reno, NV, USA[Apply on Alphabet’s careers site →](https://www.google.com/about/careers/applications/jobs/results/119547190828769990-data-center-operations-manager) ## More jobs at Alphabet ### [Data Center Technician III, Global Server Operations](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/d7c54d6212a3a9364c36/) Reno, NV, USA ### [Data Center Technician, Global Server Operations (Swing, Night, Weekend Shifts)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/31c8e260a60652a6894f/) Reno, NV, USA ### [AI Data Engineer I, Professional Services, Google Cloud](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/9044563d8237440c60ec/) Austin, TX, USA +1 more ### [AI and Data Governance Lead](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/alphabet/jobs/08f35ff5f8a91988c2f8/) Sunnyvale, CA, USA +1 more ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Data Center IT Operations Director](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/microsoft/jobs/da2e793b1d372cfda977/) Microsoft · United States, Georgia, Fayetteville ### [Data Center Customer Operations Technician](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/equinix/jobs/9ea848aa29be46874a15/) Equinix · Culpeper, Virginia, United States ### [Data Center Customer Operations Technician](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/equinix/jobs/b9788feb947800e5050c/) Equinix · San Jose, California, United States ### [Technology Operations Analyst SP - Data Center Services](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lowes/jobs/bb10f6f9a73a85fd1888/) Lowe's · Winston-salem, NC ### [Data Center Operations Manager (Nights), Data Center Operations](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/0ce967e81997373f21bb/) Amazon · US, OH, Dublin OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
