Descripción del empleo

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, which manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Google Cloud Delivery Architect based in Spain.

As a Google Cloud Delivery Architect, you will take ownership of end-to-end cloud delivery engagements, from initial solution design through production deployment and final handover. You will lead multiple fixed-budget projects simultaneously, ensuring technical excellence, delivery efficiency, and customer satisfaction. Working closely with customer engineering teams and technical leadership, you will translate presales commitments into secure, scalable, production-ready cloud solutions. Your work will cover cloud migrations, infrastructure modernization, Kubernetes platforms, and DevOps automation. You will also drive infrastructure-as-code best practices and help customers build reliable, future-ready cloud environments. This is an opportunity to combine deep technical expertise with project ownership in a highly collaborative, customer-focused environment recognized for its Google Cloud expertise.

Accountabilities:

• Lead end-to-end cloud delivery: Own Google Cloud engagements from architecture and planning through implementation, production readiness, and final handover.
• Manage multiple projects: Coordinate several fixed-budget projects in parallel, maintaining delivery timelines, budgets, resource allocation, and quality standards.
• Drive cloud migrations: Lead AWS and Azure to Google Cloud migrations, including EKS to GKE, RDS to Cloud SQL, and S3 to Cloud Storage, using phased migration strategies and controlled cutovers.
• Design cloud foundations: Build secure and scalable Google Cloud landing zones, covering resource hierarchies, IAM, organization policies, network architecture, and security controls, with Terraform-based automation.
• Architect Kubernetes platforms: Design and deploy production-ready GKE environments, including private clusters, Workload Identity, Helm add-ons, ingress configurations, and Cloud Armor.
• Implement DevOps and infrastructure automation: Develop reusable Terraform modules, modernize existing infrastructure, and implement CI/CD and GitOps workflows using GitHub Actions, Workload Identity Federation, and Argo CD.
• Own customer relationships: Lead weekly customer meetings, facilitate technical workshops, communicate project progress, and ensure alignment with customer engineers and CTOs.
• Ensure delivery governance: Maintain project documentation, tracking boards, and resource-hour reporting; proactively identify budget deviations and manage scope changes.
• Manage project handovers: Deliver comprehensive documentation, operational runbooks, and knowledge-transfer sessions to ensure smooth transitions into production and ongoing operations.

Requirements:

• Google Cloud expertise: Strong hands-on experience designing and delivering production-grade Google Cloud architectures. GCP must already be a core technical competency.
• Terraform proficiency: Extensive experience developing modular, reusable infrastructure-as-code solutions, managing remote state, and importing existing manually configured environments.
• Customer-facing communication: Excellent English communication skills, with the ability to independently lead workshops, weekly project meetings, technical discussions, and handovers.
• Kubernetes and GKE experience: Proven production experience with private clusters, node pools, autoscaling, RBAC, Workload Identity, Helm, and ingress management.
• Networking and security knowledge: Strong understanding of VPC architecture, Cloud NAT, DNS, VPN, Private Service Connect, firewall policies, IAM, organization policies, and Secret Manager.
• CI/CD and GitOps expertise: Experience implementing automated delivery pipelines using GitHub Actions or equivalent tools, keyless authentication to Google Cloud, container workflows, and Argo CD or similar GitOps solutions.
• AWS or Azure knowledge: Practical familiarity with at least one major source cloud platform and the ability to understand and assess existing environments before migration.
• AI-driven working approach: Confident daily use of AI-powered tools, combined with sound technical judgment to evaluate generated recommendations and distinguish useful outputs from unreliable ones.
• English fluency: Strong written and spoken English skills for international customer-facing collaboration.

Nice-to-have qualifications:

• Current Google Cloud certification, or willingness to obtain one within the first months, with certification costs funded.
• Experience delivering large-scale production migrations, including change data capture (CDC) and logical replication.
• Familiarity with open-source technologies such as Kafka, Elasticsearch, Istio, Prometheus, Grafana, and Vault.
• Knowledge of Google Cloud data and AI services, including BigQuery, Dataflow, and Gemini.
• Experience working in regulated industries or fintech environments, particularly with VPC Service Controls (VPC-SC), Customer-Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK), and Cloud Armor.
• Previous consulting experience delivering fixed-scope, fixed-budget technical engagements.

Benefits:

• Opportunity to lead impactful Google Cloud transformation and modernization projects.
• Exposure to complex, large-scale cloud migrations and production architecture challenges.
• Work with modern cloud technologies, including GKE, Terraform, GitOps, and AI-powered development tools.
• Google Cloud certification costs funded, with support to obtain relevant professional certifications.
• Collaborative environment focused on technical excellence, innovation, and continuous development.
• Direct involvement in customer-facing architecture and strategic technical decision-making.
