Ready to build cloud infrastructure the right way, automated, scalable, secure, and engineered, not “clicked together”?
This is a role for a GCP‑driven engineer who wants ownership, modern tooling, and a platform team that genuinely does DevOps rather than just talk about it.
The Opportunity:
Join a cross‑functional engineering group delivering enterprise‑scale GCP infrastructure and DevOps capabilities. You’ll shape cloud products, design reusable IaC patterns, and build automation that removes toil for dozens of teams across the business.
This isn’t a support role. It’s hands‑on engineering with room to influence standards, architecture, and tooling across a huge GCP estate.
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Engineering GCP infrastructure products using Terraform & Terraform Cloud.
* Designing reusable IaC modules, refactoring legacy configs, improving state management.
* Building automation, tooling and workflows in Python.
* Developing secure, scalable GCP landing zones with org policies, policy‑as‑code (OPA/Sentinel), guardrails, and zero‑trust principles.
* Working deeply with GKE, containers, Istio, cluster ops, and cloud‑native networking.
* Integrating CI/CD pipelines (GitHub, Jenkins, Harness) to automate everything from builds to deployments.
* Driving cloud adoption and best practice across feature teams.
What You Bring:
* Strong GCP cloud engineering background with a DevOps mindset.
* Terraform expertise (modules, state, workspaces, enterprise patterns).
* Solid Python scripting for tooling and automation.
* GKE, service mesh, containerisation & cluster management experience.
* Experience implementing org-level governance, security, and policy‑as‑code.
* Certifications in GCP and Terraform are a big plus.
Nice to Have:
* SME‑level GCP knowledge or consulting experience.
* Experience influencing architecture, design, and DevOps strategy.
* Familiarity with IDE‑style engineering platforms (e.g., Backstage).
Why This Role?
* A genuinely modern GCP environment, not a half‑migrated legacy swamp.
* Real engineering autonomy and the chance to shape cloud platforms at scale.
* Backed by a major UK organisation with huge learning, career and technical development opportunities.
* A culture that values DevOps, infrastructure as code, and engineering excellence
