About the job

At Google we’re committed to improving the lives of as many people as possible. One of the most important areas in which we’re striving to do that is health.

Today we’re studying the use of artificial intelligence to assist in diagnosing cancer, predicting patient outcomes, preventing blindness, and much more. We’re exploring ways to improve patient care, including tools that are already being used by clinicians. And we’re partnering with doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to help improve the care patients receive.

As the Head of Technology Strategy, you will guide users and stakeholders to establish and realize a digital technology road map initially focused on electronic Quality Management System (eQMS).
