Job description

Key Responsibilities

• Infrastructure Management: Architect, deploy, and manage secure enterprise landing zones and cloud infrastructure natively on GCP.
• Orchestration & Containerization: Manage, scale, and optimize Kubernetes clusters (specifically Google Kubernetes Engine - GKE), ensuring optimal resource allocation and service mesh connectivity.
• Security & Compliance: Implement and maintain stringent security controls, including Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles, network policies, data encryption at rest and in transit, and vulnerability patching within a secured environment.
• CI/CD Automation: Build and maintain robust Infrastructure as Code (IaC) pipelines using tools like Terraform to ensure repeatable, audited deployments.
• Operations & On-Call Support: Participate in an engineering standby rotation to proactively monitor system health, respond to high-priority alerts, and maintain our system uptime Service Level Agreements (SLAs).

Job Requirements

Technical Skills & Expertise:

• GCP Mastery: Proven hands-on experience administering core GCP services (Compute Engine, VPCs, Cloud Storage, IAM, Cloud Logging/Monitoring).
• Kubernetes Expertise: Deep operational knowledge of Kubernetes architectures, deployment strategies, ingress controllers, and troubleshooting containerized workloads.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Strong proficiency in Terraform for managing state files and modular cloud deployments.
• CI/CD Platforms: Experience setting up secure deployment pipelines (e.g., GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or GCP Cloud Build).

Operational & Environment Requirements:

• Secured Environment Experience: Comfort and familiarity working within restricted network environments (e.g., air-gapped networks, jump hosts/bastion servers, or environments under strict compliance frameworks like ISO 27001, IM8, or MAS guidelines).
• Standby Availability: Willingness and capability to participate in a scheduled on-call standby rotation (including weekends/after-hours) with a reliable remote setup and quick response times.
