About the job
The Support and Services team is responsible for innovating our service models for YouTube’s Operations – including Creator Success and Partner Engineering functions – to optimize impact and cost/resource efficiency. The core capabilities of the team include defining and building alignment on strategy, setting measures of success, identifying critical initiatives, enabling change management with frontline teams, and developing pilots to test new frontline models.
Creator Success ensures all our creators get swift resolution to their questions and issues so they can get back to creating great content. Partner Engineering bridges the gap between YouTube’s platform and a diverse set of ecosystem partners (Music Labels and Publishers, TV broadcasters and MediaCos, Device Partners, Shopping Merchants) through technical consultancy, platform integration, partner tooling, asset management and data exchange, and service management.
At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we listen, share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process. Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.

- Collaborate with Partner Engineering leadership to develop more scalable approaches that free up team bandwidth for additional mission-critical YouTube priorities.
- Partner with YouTube’s Creator Success and Partner Engineering executive teams to establish long-term strategic priorities, proactively identify potential challenges, and collaborate on developing innovative solutions that will transform the support experience.
- Manage complex projects by structuring, launching, and driving projects to inform critical decisions based on hypotheses and subsequent analysis of YouTube case data, business drivers, and operating metrics.
