DevOps Engineer (GCP Based)
Were looking for a DevOps Engineer (GCP) who thrives at the intersection of automation, reliability, and cloud architecture. Youll play a critical role in shaping a secure, scalable, and highly available Google Cloud ecosystem, enabling engineering teams to ship faster and safer.
This is a hands-on role with real ownership — from infrastructure design to production reliability — where your decisions directly impact system performance, cost efficiency, and developer velocity.
What Youll Be Responsible For
Design, build, and maintain secure, scalable, and fault-tolerant GCP infrastructure using Terraform as the primary IaC tool.Ensure consistent Dev, Staging, and Production environments through robust Terraform state management and best practices.Operate and optimise Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) clusters and core compute services including Compute Engine and Cloud Run.Architect and manage end-to-end CI/CD pipelines (Cloud Build, Cloud Deploy, Jenkins, GitLab CI) to automate testing, artefact creation, and deployments.Embed security scanning, compliance checks, and quality gates into pipelines to support a strong DevSecOps culture.Implement and maintain observability frameworks across GCP using Cloud Monitoring & Logging, Prometheus, and Grafana.Define, track, and report SLIs and SLOs to balance reliability with delivery speed.Participate in on-call rotations, lead deep Root Cause Analysis (RCA), and drive preventative improvements after incidents.Design and manage IAM policies following the principle of least privilege.Implement network security controls including VPC design, firewall rules, Cloud Armor, and encryption standards.Manage application secrets and credentials using Google Secret Manager or HashiCorp Vault.Proactively monitor cloud spend and identify cost-optimisation opportunities without compromising performance.Perform capacity planning and performance tuning across GCP services.Mentor development teams on DevOps best practices and GCP architecture.Maintain high-quality technical documentation, including architecture diagrams, runbooks, and operational procedures.
What Were Looking For
2+ years experience as a DevOps Engineer or Site Reliability Engineer, with demonstrable hands-on expertise in Google Cloud Platform.Advanced proficiency in Terraform for managing complex, production-scale GCP infrastructure.Strong experience running Kubernetes in production, preferably GKE.Solid scripting skills in Python, Bash, or Go for automation and tooling.Deep understanding of GCP networking: VPCs, load balancing, peering, DNS, CDN, VPN/Interconnect.Experience managing GCP managed databases such as Cloud SQL, BigQuery, or Spanner.GCP Certifications, such as: Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer, Professional Cloud Architect, Professional Cloud Security EngineerExperience with advanced observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Splunk).Hands-on knowledge of configuration management (Ansible, Chef, Puppet).Strong understanding of DevSecOps practices (SAST, DAST, container vulnerability management).Exceptional problem-solving and analytical thinking in high-pressure environments.Clear, confident communication skills — able to translate complex technical topics for diverse stakeholders.A collaborative mindset with experience mentoring engineers and leading small technical initiatives.
Nice to Have
Proven experience with cloud migration projects (on-prem or multi-cloud to GCP).Strong exposure to serverless architectures (Cloud Run, Cloud Functions, App Engine).Hands-on FinOps experience on GCP, using Billing Reports, Recommenders, or Cost Management APIs.Advanced database experience with PostgreSQL on Cloud SQL, Cloud Spanner, or BigQuery.Experience implementing advanced security controls using Security Command Centre (SCC) or Cloud Armor (WAF/DDoS protection).
