This role covers GCP Cloud Armor policy management, DNS and firewall configuration, Ingress NGINX tuning, and abuse prevention, ensuring the service remains available and well-protected for thousands of developers across SAP. The work combines proactive hardening, such as automating Cloud Armor rules and cleaning up redundant network configurations, with reactive investigation, including diagnosing rate-limit false positives and tracing missing client IPs in proxy logs. All changes are validated on a test cluster before being applied to production.

- Implement monitoring and alerting for abuse patterns using GCP logs and the SonarQube API
- Modify and maintain Ingress NGINX Helm chart configuration
- Analyze GCP Cloud Logging and Splunk data to identify problematic IPs and traffic patterns
- Validate all network and infrastructure changes on the test cluster before deploying to production
- Document security rules, network configuration decisions, and operational runbooks
- 5+ years of experience in network engineering, DevOps, or cloud infrastructure roles
- Expertise in GCP, including Cloud Armor, WAF rule authoring, rate-based banning, and policy automation
- Proficiency in GCP Cloud Logging, covering log query language, HTTP load balancer, and L4/L7 proxy log analysis
- Knowledge of GCP networking, including DNS zone management, VPC firewall policies, and firewall rule lifecycle
- Familiarity with Ingress NGINX configuration via values.yaml and proxy header handling
