Job Summary
Role Overview We are looking for a skilled DevOps Engineer (GCP) to design, build, and operate a production-grade cloud and Kubernetes platform on Google Cloud. The role focuses on enabling development teams to deploy and operate microservices at scale, implementing CI/CD automation, and ensuring secure, reliable, and observable systems. The ideal candidate will have solid hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform, Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines, and will collaborate closely with application, platform, and infrastructure teams to deliver scalable cloud-native solutions.

Key Responsibilities
Cloud & Infrastructure Design, build, and operate production-ready infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Manage and optimize GCP services such as GKE, Compute Engine, Cloud Load Balancing, VPC, IAM, Cloud Storage, and Cloud Monitoring. Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform for repeatable, version-controlled deployments.
Kubernetes & Microservices
Deploy, manage, and operate Kubernetes workloads on GKE for microservices-based applications. Implement best practices for container orchestration, scaling, high availability, and fault tolerance. Support development teams with microservices deployment, rollout strategies (blue-green,



canary), and troubleshooting.
CI/CD & Automation
Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions for building, testing, and deploying containerized applications. Automate Docker image builds, security scans, and Kubernetes deployments. Collaborate with development teams to standardize deployment pipelines and release processes.
Security & Reliability
Implement security best practices including IAM policies, secrets management, certificate management, and secure communication between services. Ensure high availability, reliability, and performance tuning of cloud and Kubernetes environments. Participate in incident management, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement initiatives.
Observability & Operations
Set up and maintain monitoring, logging, and alerting using Cloud Monitoring, Cloud Logging, Prometheus, and Grafana. Provide visibility into system health, performance metrics, and application behavior. Optimize cost, performance, and resource utilization across GCP services.
Required Skills
Strong hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Experience managing Kubernetes (GKE) in production environments. Proficiency in Terraform or similar IaC tools. Experience with CI/CD pipelines, preferably GitHub Actions. Solid understanding of Docker and container-based deployments. Knowledge of cloud security, IAM, certificates, and secrets management. Experience with monitoring, alerting, and operational best practices (CloudOps/SRE fundamentals). Understanding of microservices architecture and cloud-native design principles.
