As a Senior Cloud Engineer, you will be at the forefront of designing and building the foundational cloud platforms that power our critical digital services. You will bridge the gap between software engineering and cloud operations, using your deep expertise in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and modern DevOps principles to create scalable, secure, and resilient infrastructure. Your primary focus will be acting as an GCP SME, building robust CI/CD pipelines, championing Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and enabling our product teams to rapidly deliver and run containerised microservices on platforms like Cloud Run and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). You will be instrumental in shaping our serverless-first cloud strategy and establishing best practices to ensure our technology environment is efficient, automated, and aligned with our business objectives.
