We are seeking a hands-on Cloud Architect centered on Google Cloud Platform, blending architecture, DevOps and Platform Engineering to design, build, automate and operate production-grade platforms. The role demands strong ownership across reliability, security and scalability — from high-level design through to day-to-day operational delivery.
Responsibilities
- Design and evolve secure, scalable GCP architectures for production workloads, translating application and platform requirements into practical, cost-effective infrastructure solutions
- Lead the design, build and delivery of GCP infrastructure, spanning project structure, identity & access management, VPC networking, managed Kubernetes, load balancing, egress controls and platform-level services
- Build and maintain declarative Infrastructure as Code using modular, reusable patterns with controlled configuration promotion across multiple environments and a disciplined state management approach
- Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines that integrate application build, test automation, container image workflows and Kubernetes deployment to support fast, reliable and auditable releases
- Operate and continuously improve production Kubernetes platforms, covering cluster lifecycle management, access controls, autoscaling, resource governance and deployment integration
- Partner with application development teams to provide the platform capabilities, tooling and deployment patterns required for reliable production delivery of microservices
- Implement and evolve a comprehensive observability strategy, including metrics, alerting, log aggregation, dashboarding and distributed tracing, to support troubleshooting, performance analysis and incident response
- Drive automation of operational and configuration tasks and contribute to architecture decisions spanning networking, security, availability, scalability and multi-cloud strategy
- Manage incidents, conduct root-cause analysis, implement preventive controls and drive reliability improvements without sacrificing delivery velocity
Requirements
- 7+ years of hands-on experience designing, building and operating production cloud environments, with GCP as the primary platform and familiarity with at least one other major cloud provider such as AWS or Azure
- Professional experience that bridges architecture and engineering, with comfort moving from high-level design into implementation, automation and operational delivery
- Expertise in GCP core services, IAM, VPC networking, load balancing, NAT and firewall rules
- Proficiency in Kubernetes, including RBAC, autoscaling (HPA/VPA), container runtimes and image registries
- Skills in declarative Infrastructure as Code tooling, reusable module design, multi-environment state management and secrets handling
- Knowledge of CI/CD pipeline orchestration, build automation, configuration management and GitOps patterns
- Experience implementing observability stacks, including metrics & alerting, dashboarding, log aggregation and distributed tracing, and using telemetry data to drive reliability, performance and capacity decisions
- Familiarity with microservices ecosystems, document, cache and relational datastores, and message streaming
- Understanding of identity federation, secret management, policy-as-code, network segmentation and vulnerability scanning
- Track record of working effectively with application development teams to align platform capabilities with engineering needs
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate architectural trade-offs and influence decisions across technical and non-technical stakeholders
