Job description

We are looking for a hands-on Lead CloudOps Engineer to oversee the reliability, scalability, automation, and day-to-day operations of our GCP-based cloud platform. You will drive infrastructure automation, improve developer workflows, enhance observability, and ensure secure, stable platform operations.

While GCP is the primary environment, the role includes operational responsibility for an existing AWS enterprise environment, requiring the ability to troubleshoot issues, maintain existing systems, and support partner teams without owning major AWS architectural redesigns.

This position is ideal for someone who thrives in cloud-native environments, enjoys automation, and balances engineering rigor with operational excellence.

This is a founding member of the CloudOps team in the US and has a potential to grow into future leadership and management positions.

Responsibilities

Support data and application teams using GCP services such as BigQuery, Cloud SQL, Pub / Sub, Cloud Storage, Cloud Run.

Infrastructure as Code & Automation

Own and maintain Terraform configurations for GCP and AWS using reusable modules, remote state, policy checks, and automation pipelines.

Lead incident response, troubleshooting, RCA generation, and post-incident improvement efforts.

Define and manage SLOs, error budgets, and operational runbooks.

Security, Compliance & Cloud Governance

Ensure secure configurations across cloud services, Kubernetes workloads, secrets storage, and network boundaries.

Implement guardrails and compliance automation using IAM best practices, GCP Organization Policies, and Terraform checks.

Work with security and compliance teams to meet HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2, or internal audit requirements.

AWS Operational Support (backup support for existing Platform Only)

Maintain stability of a pre-existing AWS environment by performing tasks such as :

Reviewing IAM roles and security posture

Supporting workloads on EC2, ECS, EKS, RDS, S3

Troubleshooting infrastructure or networking issues

Managing configurations, upgrades, and patching

Assist teams that rely on AWS-hosted systems and ensure smooth integration with GCP-centric operations.

Make small-to-medium improvements or automation updates for AWS infrastructure using Terraform or CI / CD workflows.

Leadership & Cross-Team Collaboration

Mentor DevOps, CloudOps, and Platform Engineers through pair programming, reviews, and best-practice sharing.

Partner with development, data, and security teams to build highly reliable, cloud-native applications and pipelines.

Establish operational standards, documentation, and playbooks for cloud operations.

Requirements

8+ years of DevOps, CloudOps, or platform engineering experience.

Deep hands-on experience with GCP, including :

GKE, workload identity, cluster networking

VPC design, firewalls, load balancers

BigQuery, Pub / Sub, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage

IAM, KMS, Secret Manager

Strong expertise with Terraform, including modules, workspaces, and governance patterns.

AWS (Operational Proficiency Required)

Practical experience supporting AWS operations (not architecture-heavy), including :

EC2, EKS, and ALB / NLB

S3, RDS, CloudWatch

IAM troubleshooting

Network troubleshooting (VPC, Security Groups, Route 53)

Comfortable maintaining and improving existing AWS infrastructure.

Preferred

Experience with GitOps tools (ArgoCD, Flux).

Familiarity with service mesh (Istio, Anthos) or advanced networking.

Experience with policy-as-code (OPA / Gatekeeper or Sentinel).

Background with FinOps / cost optimization.

Experience building internal developer platforms or platform engineering teams.
