Senior Cloud Engineer – AV Cloud Engineering

• Architectural Execution: Implement and manage the lifecycle of Kubernetes (GKE) clusters across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, ensuring production safety through automated patching and upgrades
• Platform Implementation: Develop and maintain self-service PaaS features that abstract infrastructure complexity, providing reliable and performant access to specialized hardware like GPUs
• Connectivity & Traffic: Implement and optimize high-throughput ingress patterns and service mesh (Istio) configurations to support distributed AV data and ML workloads
• Project Independence: Take ownership of complex cloud initiatives from design through deployment, identifying technical gaps and proactively implementing robust solutions
• Operational Excellence: Eliminate "human duct tape" by replacing manual cloud-management tasks with declarative state-enforcement (Terraform/GitOps) and custom automation
• Reliability & Observability: Define and monitor SLIs/SLOs for cloud services, ensuring the platform meets the availability targets required for Super Cruise validation
• Peer Mentorship: Proactively share technical lessons learned and participate in rigorous code and architecture reviews to support a healthy, high-trust engineering culture

• Fully qualified proficiency in Kubernetes (GKE) and the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) ecosystem, including VPC, IAM, etc.
• Hands-on experience implementing high-availability systems and managing the lifecycle of production-grade clusters
• Strong proficiency in software engineering and DevOps principles, specifically using Golang/Python and Terraform
• Ability to operate independently in an ambiguous environment and translate high-level requirements into clear technical tasks
• A "Growth-based Mindset" with a commitment to continuous upskilling and a belief that team capacities are developed through effort and coaching
• Professional experience managing the trade-offs between hardware-level performance (GPU passthrough) and clean cloud abstractions
