You Are We are seeking a seasoned and visionary Energy Industry Leader to spearhead the digital transformation of the world's leading energy companies. This executive role is focused on establishing Google Cloud as the essential platform for the energy sector as it navigates the global energy transition, optimizes operations, and innovates for a sustainable future.
The Work You will be responsible for helping companies across the entire energy value chain—from oil and gas and utilities to renewables—harness the power of Google Cloud's Data, AI, and agentic technologies. The ideal candidate will have deep industry credibility, a thorough understanding of the sector's complexities, and a powerful vision for how technology can create a more efficient, resilient, and lower‑carbon energy system.
Key Responsibilities
Strategic Industry Leadership: You will be the chief architect and driver of Google Cloud's comprehensive go‑to‑market strategy for the global energy industry. This involves developing and executing a clear vision for how Google Cloud can support traditional oil and gas operations, accelerate the growth of renewables, and modernize utility grids. You will serve as the senior voice of the energy customer within Google, translating the industry's critical needs—such as subsurface data analysis, predictive maintenance, and energy trading optimization—into actionable strategies for our product, engineering, and infrastructure teams.
Energy Transition and Sustainability: You will act as a key advisor to C‑level executives on their most pressing challenge: the energy transition. You will guide them in leveraging Google Cloud to achieve their sustainability and decarbonization goals. This includes developing solutions for managing renewable energy portfolios, optimizing carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects, creating green hydrogen value chains, and providing transparent, data‑driven ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting.
Operational and Engineering Transformation: You will lead the charge in modernizing the core operational and engineering functions of energy companies. This involves helping upstream companies accelerate exploration by applying AI to seismic and subsurface data on our high‑performance computing (HPC) infrastructure. You will also drive the adoption of digital twins, IoT, and AI for predictive maintenance on critical assets like refineries, pipelines, and wind turbines, thereby increasing safety, reducing downtime, and improving operational efficiency.
Data, AI, and Grid Modernization: You will champion the use of Google's powerful Data and AI platforms to create intelligent energy systems. This includes helping utilities build smart grids that are more resilient, flexible, and capable of managing distributed energy resources (DERs). You will spearhead the use of AI for advanced energy demand forecasting, real‑time energy trading, and asset optimization. Furthermore, you will drive the use of generative AI and intelligent agents to assist field engineers, automate complex operational workflows, and enhance customer engagement for energy retailers.
Ecosystem and Thought Leadership: You will be responsible for building and nurturing a world‑class ecosystem of partners critical to the energy sector, including geoscience software vendors, industrial IoT specialists, equipment manufacturers, and system integrators. As the public face and thought leader for Google Cloud in Energy, you will represent us at major industry events like CERAWeek and ADIPEC, engage with regulatory bodies, and articulate a compelling vision for the secure, intelligent, and sustainable future of the energy industry.
