Google Cloud Delivery Architect

Accountabilities

• • Own the end-to-end delivery of Google Cloud engagements, from low-level design and implementation through validation, documentation, knowledge transfer, and final handover.
  • Design and execute cloud migrations from AWS or Azure to Google Cloud, including production workloads such as EKS to GKE, RDS to Cloud SQL, and S3 to Cloud Storage.
  • Design and implement secure Google Cloud foundations and landing zones covering resource hierarchies, IAM, organization policies, networking, and security controls, with infrastructure codified in Terraform.
  • Architect and deploy production-grade GKE environments, including private clusters, node pools, Workload Identity, Helm-based add-ons, ingress, autoscaling, and Cloud Armor.
  • Enable DevOps and infrastructure automation by importing existing environments into Terraform, developing reusable modules, and implementing CI/CD and GitOps workflows using tools such as GitHub Actions and Argo CD.
  • Manage multiple customer engagements simultaneously, maintaining delivery plans, project hours, scope, budgets, and timelines while identifying risks and budget deviations early.
  • Lead customer-facing workshops, weekly meetings, technical discussions, and handover sessions with engineering teams, technical leaders, and CTO-level stakeholders.
  • Protect project scope through effective change management and ensure that all delivered environments are supported by clear documentation, runbooks, and knowledge transfer.
  • Apply AI-assisted development tools thoughtfully in architecture, implementation, troubleshooting, and delivery workflows while maintaining strong technical judgment and quality standards.

  Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on cloud infrastructure and architecture experience, with deep production experience specifically in Google Cloud.
  • Strong expertise in Terraform, including reusable and modular infrastructure code, remote state management, and importing manually provisioned environments.
  • Proven production experience with Kubernetes and GKE, including private clusters, node pools, autoscaling, RBAC, Workload Identity, Helm, and ingress.
  • Strong knowledge of Google Cloud networking and security, including VPC architecture, Cloud NAT, DNS, VPN, Private Service Connect, firewall policies, IAM, Organization Policies, and Secret Manager.
  • Practical experience with CI/CD and DevOps practices, including GitHub Actions or equivalent, keyless authentication to Google Cloud, container workflows, and GitOps with Argo CD or similar tools.
  • Working knowledge of AWS or Azure, with the ability to understand and assess source-cloud environments as part of migration projects.
  • Strong customer-facing English communication skills, with confidence leading technical workshops, weekly meetings, presentations, and handovers.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple technical engagements, work within defined budgets and scopes, and take ownership of delivery outcomes.
  • Strong architectural thinking, problem-solving ability, documentation skills, and attention to implementation quality.
  • Proven ability to work independently, make sound technical decisions, identify risks early, and communicate complex concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Proficiency with AI-assisted development tools and the judgment to evaluate when AI-generated solutions should be adopted, modified, or rejected.

  Benefits

  • Senior-level opportunity focused on large-scale Google Cloud architecture and transformation projects.
  • Opportunity to work across cloud migrations, landing zones, Kubernetes, infrastructure automation, security, and DevOps.
  • Direct exposure to customers and senior technical stakeholders, with significant ownership of project execution.
  • Opportunity to manage several technically challenging engagements and influence delivery standards.
  • Work with modern cloud-native technologies, infrastructure-as-code practices, and AI-assisted engineering tools.
  • Opportunity to contribute to complex enterprise environments while expanding expertise across Google Cloud and related technologies.
  • Collaborative environment with strong emphasis on technical ownership, continuous improvement, and high-quality delivery.
  • Full-time position with senior/architect-level scope.
