TL;DR · Principal Cloud Infrastructure Engineer

Principal Cloud Infrastructure Engineer (GCP) serves as the technical authority for the enterprise Google Cloud Platform, leading the cloud engineering team to build a secure, scalable foundation. This role involves owning the GCP landing zone, including shared VPCs and resource hierarchies, while establishing engineering standards like IaC patterns and naming conventions. The engineer will develop self-service capabilities, manage CI/CD pipelines using Cloud Build and GitHub Actions, and implement policy-as-code via OPA. Key technical responsibilities include architecting networking with VPC Service Controls, managing security through Workload Identity Federation and Secret Manager, and integrating observability tools like Datadog. The role requires expertise in GKE, Cloud Run, BigQuery, and Terraform, while utilizing Python and Go to automate infrastructure. This position addresses the challenge of maintaining a compliant, high-performing cloud environment within regulated frameworks such as HIPAA and PCI.

What you'll do

  • Own the enterprise GCP platform end-to-end, including resource hierarchy, networking architecture, and landing zone management.
  • Serve as the final technical authority for all GCP engineering decisions regarding scalability, security, and operational excellence.
  • Lead the cloud engineering team by setting technical direction, conducting design reviews, and mentoring engineers.
  • Establish and enforce infrastructure standards using Infrastructure as Code (IaC), CI/CD pipelines, and policy-as-code guardrails.
  • Architect and manage GCP networking components including Shared VPC, VPC Service Controls, and hybrid connectivity.
  • Manage the enterprise security posture through IAM least-privilege design, secret management, and automated compliance monitoring.
  • Develop and maintain production-quality automation scripts in Python and Go to eliminate operational toil.
  • Define the GCP platform roadmap by evaluating new services, implementing FinOps practices, and piloting emerging technologies.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of experience in cloud and infrastructure engineering.
  • 5+ years of hands-on GCP experience at enterprise scale.
  • Proven track record of leading platform teams or major enterprise cloud initiatives.
  • Proficiency in Python and Go programming languages is required.
  • Expertise in Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, Cloud Build, and Config Connector.
  • Experience managing GCP networking, security (IAM, VPC Service Controls), and observability tools.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect or DevOps Engineer certifications are preferred.
