Job Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled GCP Infrastructure Engineer to design, implement, and manage scalable, secure, and high-performance cloud infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This role focuses on cloud architecture, networking, infrastructure automation, and hybrid/multi-cloud environments, rather than application-level DevOps responsibilities.

Key Responsibilities

Cloud Infrastructure & Architecture

• Design and implement scalable, secure GCP infrastructure solutions.
• Develop and manage IaaS platforms across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
• Support enterprise-scale cloud migration and modernization initiatives.

Cloud Networking

• Architect and optimize GCP networking solutions, including VPC design, subnetting, and routing.
• Configure and manage Cloud Router with BGP for dynamic routing.
• Implement hybrid connectivity using VPN and Interconnect.
• Evaluate and implement networking models such as VPC Peering and Network Connectivity Center (NCC).

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & Automation

• Build and maintain infrastructure using Terraform and Google Cloud Deployment Manager.
• Automate provisioning and configuration using Ansible and scripting (Python, Bash, PowerShell).
• Manage Kubernetes deployments using Helm and Customise.

CI/CD & GitOps

• Design and manage CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and application deployments.
• Utilize tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and Flux.
• Implement GitOps practices for automated and consistent deployments.

Containerization & Virtualization

• Deploy and manage containerized workloads using Kubernetes and OpenShift.
• Work with legacy virtualization platforms such as VMware.
• Support migration from traditional infrastructure to cloud-native environments.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure engineering or platform engineering.
• Strong hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Deep understanding of cloud networking (VPC, BGP, VPN, Interconnect).
• Expertise in Infrastructure as Code (Terraform preferred).
• Experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration.
• Proficiency in scripting languages (Python, Bash, PowerShell).
• Experience with CI/CD tools and GitOps practices.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in hybrid and multi-cloud environments (AWS/Azure + GCP).
• Background in enterprise virtualization (VMware).
• Knowledge of API gateways and serverless architectures.
• GCP certifications (e.g., Professional Cloud Architect, Network Engineer).

Nice to Have

• Experience with security best practices in cloud environments.
• Exposure to observability tools (Monitoring, Logging, APM).
• Understanding of cost optimization strategies in GCP.
