Director of Other

Google's got a very creative generalist type position open in Mountain View: Director of Other.

At Google, in order to grow through innovation, we spend 70 percent of our time on the core business, 20 percent on related projects, and 10 percent on new and unrelated businesses which we call “Other”. As our core business continues to enjoy phenomenal success, our tangential efforts must equally evolve to capitalize on opportunities before us. Under the “Other” umbrella, Google aims to identify and pursue opportunities where technology can revolutionize traditional and more mature industries.
