**About the job**:
As a member of Google’s Government Affairs and Public Policy team, you'll be part of a diverse global government affairs team, working across regions, product areas, and functions. You’ll combine creativity and intellectual excellence with the organizational skills to manage various campaigns, projects and initiatives. In this role, you’ll advocate for Google to bring external perspectives back into the company to inform our perception and direction. You're passionate about the opportunity to shape the future of how we use and build technology for everyone.

As the Human Rights team, we work in partnership with the Civil Rights team, to drive company-wide strategy to fulfill Google's commitment to human rights. This includes our commitments to the United Nations, Global Network Initiative Principles, and Google's AI Principles, among others. The Human Rights team does this by building internal human rights infrastructure, integrating into processes, advising product teams and functions on potential civil and human rights impacts, conducting human rights due diligence, providing strategic policy analysis, engaging external experts and stakeholders, and externalizing our public policy positions.

Technology moves quickly, so it's important that we work closely with policymakers, regulators, academics, and civil society to facilitate shared understanding about the issues that affect the Internet and our users.

Google takes its responsibilities seriously, including engaging with government and other stakeholders on important public policy challenges. The Government Affairs and Public Policy (GAPP) team leads the company’s engagement with executive branch officials, legislators, regulators and third-parties in the formation of public policy. Working closely with Google leaders, GAPP seeks to identify key policy issues, listen carefully to others’ views and opinions, and distill and share the company’s perspective on those issues with external stakeholders. While we focus on challenges affecting the internet, our issue areas are increasingly broad and encompass many areas where public policy, business, and technology intersect.

**Responsibilities**:

- Work to build internal and external expertise on the ways in which technology and public policy impact human rights.
- Work with the Head of Human Rights to drive Google-wide human rights strategy, which is designed to manage day-to-day operations and provide relevant inputs to guide decision-makers when considering potential human rights impacts.
- Review, analyze, and draft materials that educate internal staff and executives about technology and human rights law and policy.

Google is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and is an affirmative action employer. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status. We also consider qualified applicants regardless of criminal histories, consistent with legal requirements. See also Google's EEO Policy and EEO is the Law.
