Description Lead the end-to-end DevOps and infrastructure function for an advanced analytics platform deployed on GCP. The role owns infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipeline design and governance, multi-environment promotion strategy, MLOps infrastructure, multi-tenant provisioning, and production reliability - ensuring the platform scales securely across clients and geographies. Requirements Domain Requirement Cloud Platform Deep hands-on expertise with GCP - Compute, Networking, IAM, Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, BigQuery, Cloud Storage, Artifact Registry, Vertex AI, Cloud Composer Infrastructure as Code Production-grade Terraform - modules, workspaces, remote state (GCS), state locking, Terragrunt wrappers; experience managing 4+ environments from a single codebase CI/CD GitLab CI/CD - pipeline design, YAML templating, multi-stage deployment, manual gates, Kubernetes executor runners, pipeline optimization Containers Docker containerization, image lifecycle management, Artifact Registry, Cloud Run deployment patterns Networking VPC design, private connectivity, HTTPS Load Balancers, SSL/TLS, DNS management, CDN/WAF integration (Akamai or Cloudflare) Databases Operational management of Cloud SQL (PostgreSQL) and BigQuery - provisioning, backups, replication, access control Security GCP IAM, service accounts, workload identity, secret management, least-privilege enforcement, Cloud Armor Monitoring Setting up observability stacks - GCP Cloud Monitoring/Logging, alerting policies, SLO tracking Scripting Proficiency in Python and Bash for automation, glue scripts, and pipeline tooling Version Control Advanced Git workflows, branch protection, MR-based collaboration, GitOps principles Analytics & Data Platform Domain Skills Multi-Tenant Infrastructure: Experience provisioning isolated per-client resources (datasets, databases, storage buckets, service accounts) from parameterized IaC templates Data Pipeline Infrastructure: Managing Cloud Composer/Airflow environments, DAG deployment, and orchestration of BigQuery ↔ PostgreSQL sync pipelines MLOps Infrastructure: Provisioning Vertex AI Workbenches, model pipeline compute (including GPU), and model artifact storage with governed access Environment Parity: Maintaining functional parity across dev/qa/uat/prd with differences limited to scaling - ensuring consistent data architecture, networking, and IAM across tiers Client Onboarding Automation: Automating tenant provisioning via Terraform - dual-database strategy (workspace DB + published DB), BigQuery datasets, GCS buckets, and IAM bindings per client Good-to-Have Experience with Helm charts for Kubernetes-based auxiliary services Familiarity with Akamai CDN/WAF configuration and integration with GCP Load Balancers Exposure to WPP Open OS or similar micro-frontend hosting platforms (DevHub publishing, CSP configuration) Experience with Cloud Functions for lightweight serverless glue logic Knowledge of Redis cache provisioning and management Exposure to Pub/Sub for event-driven pipeline triggers Experience managing GitLab seat licensing and repository access governance at an organizational level Familiarity with data governance, retention policies, and GDPR-aligned infrastructure design Certification: GCP Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer or equivalent Soft Skills Strong ownership mindset for platform reliability and production uptime Ability to create and maintain clear documentation - runbooks, ADRs, environment specs, and deployment guides Effective cross-functional collaborator - comfortable working with backend engineers, data scientists, QA, and product stakeholders Proactive problem solver who anticipates infrastructure bottlenecks and builds for scale Calm under pressure - able to lead incident response and post-incident reviews Job responsibilities Key Responsibilities Infrastructure & IaC Own and evolve the Terraform codebase for provisioning all GCP resources - VPC, Cloud SQL (PostgreSQL), Cloud Run, Load Balancers, Artifact Registry, BigQuery, Cloud Composer (Airflow), Cloud Storage, and Vertex AI Workbench Implement modular, parameterized Terraform modules using Terragrunt wrappers aligned with the Measure Project Factory templates Manage Terraform state (GCS backend with state locking) and ensure consistent, drift-free environments across dev → qa → uat → prd Provision and manage per-client infrastructure (datasets, databases, buckets, service accounts) as part of the multi-tenant onboarding process CI/CD Pipeline Design & Governance Design, maintain, and optimize GitLab CI/CD pipelines for frontend, backend (FastAPI/Python), infrastructure, and data engineering deployments Implement environment promotion workflows with appropriate manual gates, MR approval policies, and branch protection rules Enforce quality gates - build-fail enforcement on unit tests, SonarQube, code coverage thresholds, and configuration-policy validation Manage GitLab Kubernetes executor runners and pipeline caching strategies Prevent environment misconfigurations through automated validation of environment-specific variables and credentials Cloud Platform & Networking Architect and manage GCP networking - dedicated VPCs, subnets, firewall rules, private IP connectivity, and VPC connectors for secure service-to-service communication Configure and maintain HTTPS Load Balancers with SSL/TLS termination, Cloud Armor security policies, and Akamai CDN/WAF integration Manage DNS, certificate provisioning, and edge routing for production traffic MLOps & Data Infrastructure Provision and manage Vertex AI Workbench instances for data scientists and analysts with appropriate IAM bindings Support MLOps pipeline infrastructure - GPU-enabled Vertex AI compute, model artifact storage (GCS), pipeline orchestration, and Artifact Registry for container images Manage Cloud Composer (Airflow) environments for data pipeline orchestration - DAG deployment, monitoring, and health validation Support BigQuery-to-PostgreSQL replication pipelines and data sync automation Security & Access Management Implement least-privilege IAM policies with per-client service accounts and role-based access control Manage workload identity federation, secret management, and service account lifecycle Ensure OIDC/OAuth2 integration for application authentication and platform-level authorization Maintain compliance with data governance requirements including data retention policies and GDPR alignment Observability & Reliability Establish monitoring, alerting, and observability for infrastructure and application services - including pipeline failures, data sync gaps, and service health Define and track SLOs for environment availability, deployment success rates, and recovery objectives (RPO/RTO) Implement automated health checks, self-healing configurations, and incident response procedures Production Readiness & Operations Lead production deployments with zero-downtime strategies and validated rollback procedures Conduct infrastructure readiness reviews before UAT handover and production go-live Document deployment runbooks, disaster recovery procedures, and operational playbooks Team Leadership Mentor and guide junior DevOps/cloud engineers, conduct code reviews for IaC changes, and establish engineering standards What we offer Exciting Projects: We focus on industries like High-Tech, communication, media, healthcare, retail and telecom.
