• Implement security and governance: IAM and least privilege, Security Command Center, VPC Service Controls, KMS, org policies, compliance (ISO 27001, CIS).
• Set up observability and operations with Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring and third-party tools (Splunk, Dynatrace, ELK).
• Drive FinOps: cost visibility, rightsizing, committed use discounts and budgets.
• Prepare HLD/LLD documents, review designs and ensure traceability to business requirements.
• Support RFP responses, pre-sales solutioning and effort estimation; present to client stakeholders.
• Mentor engineers and work with Agile delivery teams.

Required qualifications

• 8+ years in IT infrastructure and cloud, with at least 45 years of hands-on architecture work on GCP.
• Mandatory GCP certification: Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect. Additional Professional certifications (DevOps Engineer, Security Engineer, Network Engineer, Data Engineer) are a strong plus.
• Strong hands-on experience with GCE, GKE, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage, VPC, Load Balancing, IAM, Cloud Logging and Monitoring.
• Proven experience with Terraform and CI/CD pipelines.
• Containers and orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes, Helm.
• Solid understanding of cloud networking, hybrid connectivity (Interconnect, VPN) and security best practices.
• Experience delivering at least 2–3 end-to-end cloud migration or modernization projects.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Good to have

• Working knowledge of AWS and/or Azure (multi-cloud or hybrid designs); AWS Solutions Architect or CKA certification.
• Experience with Apigee, BigQuery or data and AI services on GCP.
• Vulnerability management and patch management on cloud (OS Patch Management, Qualys/Nessus).
• ITIL foundation; exposure to regulated industries (healthcare, insurance, manufacturing).
• Pre-sales, RFP and estimation experience.
