Position Title: GCP Platform Engineer

Location: Alpharetta, GA or Roseland, NJ (Hybrid)

Need local candidates onsite interview required!!

Position Summary:

We are seeking a Principal Cloud Engineer to help build, enhance, and support a large-scale Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environment.

This is a hands-on engineering role for someone with deep public cloud experience who can help develop the platforms, automation, and tooling that enable engineering teams to build and operate secure, resilient, cloud-native applications at scale.

The ideal candidate brings extensive GCP expertise, strong Infrastructure as Code (IaC) experience, and a software engineering mindset toward cloud infrastructure. You should be comfortable writing code, developing automation, working with CI/CD platforms, and designing reusable solutions that make cloud infrastructure easier and safer for engineering teams to consume.

What You'll Do

Build, enhance, and support an enterprise-scale Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environment.

Design and develop reusable cloud infrastructure, platform capabilities, and self-service solutions for engineering teams.

Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code, with a strong emphasis on Terraform.

Build automation to improve cloud provisioning, governance, security, reliability, and operational efficiency.

Develop and support CI/CD pipelines and associated tooling, including technologies such as Jenkins and Artifactory.

Apply Git and GitOps practices to cloud infrastructure and platform engineering.

Write code and scripts regularly to automate cloud engineering and operational processes.

Help engineering teams adopt cloud-native architectures and build scalable, resilient applications.

Develop cloud governance capabilities that support security, compliance, cost management, and consistent engineering standards.

Troubleshoot complex cloud platform and production issues across infrastructure, applications, and delivery pipelines.

Partner with application, infrastructure, security, and engineering teams to improve cloud adoption and maturity.

Build and maintain documentation and engineering workflows using tools such as Jira and Confluence.

Evaluate emerging cloud and open-source technologies and incorporate appropriate capabilities into the platform.

Mentor senior engineers and help establish cloud engineering standards and best practices.

Required Qualifications:

Approximately 10+ years of hands-on architecture and engineering experience, with significant recent experience in public cloud environments.

Extensive hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Strong experience designing and supporting enterprise-scale cloud platforms.

Deep experience with Infrastructure as Code, particularly Terraform.

Strong understanding of Git, GitOps, source control, and modern software engineering practices.

Hands-on experience building automation and reusable engineering solutions.

Experience developing and supporting enterprise CI/CD pipelines, including tools such as Jenkins.

Experience with artifact management platforms such as Artifactory.

Strong understanding of cloud-native application architecture, resiliency, scalability, and security.

Experience establishing cloud environments that are secure, compliant, cost-effective, and easy for development teams to adopt.

Ability to troubleshoot complex cloud infrastructure, deployment, and production issues.

Experience working with engineering collaboration and documentation tools such as Jira and Confluence.

Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work across engineering, security, infrastructure, and application teams.

Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for a hands-on cloud engineer, not someone who has only managed cloud teams or worked at the architectural level.

Able to speak in detail about GCP environments they have personally built or supported, Terraform and IaC they have written, CI/CD automation they have developed, and complex cloud problems they have personally troubleshot.

You should be comfortable taking ownership of ambiguous technical challenges, developing reusable solutions rather than one-off fixes, and helping other engineers improve how they build and operate in the cloud.

This is an opportunity to help shape a modern enterprise GCP platform used by a large engineering organization while continuing to remain deeply hands-on with cloud engineering, automation, and platform development.
