Description : Responsibilities :

• Architect and manage scalable, secure, and cost-efficient cloud platforms using GCP services.
• Design and implement infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code tools using Terraform.
• Drive FinOps practices to improve cloud cost governance - implementing cost tracking, forecasting, budget alerts, and automated cost controls.
• Optimise BigQuery performance through query tuning, partitioning, clustering, and table lifecycle management.
• Define and promote best practices for BigQuery usage and cost-efficient data architecture.
• Set up end-to-end observability using GCP Operations Suite (Cloud Monitoring, Logging, Trace, Profiler, Error Reporting).
• Build custom dashboards using Cloud Monitoring and Grafana; implement SLOs, SLIs, and automated alerts.
• Drive DevSecOps pipelines using CI / CD tools like Cloud Build, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and integrate quality / security gates.

• Design and implement scalable data pipelines using GCP data services such as Cloud Storage, Pub / Sub, Dataflow, BigQuery, and Cloud Composer.
• Automate ingestion, transformation, and loading (ETL / ELT) processes across structured and unstructured data sources.
• Optimise pipeline performance and cost by leveraging Dataflow templates, streaming strategies, and efficient resource configurations.
• Ensure data pipeline observability through integration with Cloud Logging, Monitoring, and custom alerting.
• Manage and configure services like Cloud Run, GKE, Cloud Functions, Pub / Sub, Cloud SQL, and Dataproc.
• Write automation and scripting in Python, Bash, and YAML for deployments, monitoring, and infrastructure workflows.
• Build, secure, and deploy microservices architectures using API Gateway, service meshes, and IAM roles.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, manage client expectations, and deliver in both Agile and Waterfall models.
• Lead incident resolution efforts and post-incident analysis using observability data.
• Maintain secure identity and access management (IAM), VPC, firewall rules, and service accounts across projects.
