Role Summary

We are hiring a GCP Platform Engineer (L3) with real-world experience engineering and supporting production-grade data platforms on Google Cloud Platform.

This role requires a platform engineering mindset with deep expertise in GCP service configuration, runtime behaviour, monitoring, performance tuning, automation, and security compliance. The engineer will design, configure, operate, and troubleshoot GCP data platform services and act as the L3 escalation point for complex platform issues raised by development teams.

The ideal candidate understands how configuration parameters influence service behaviour, performance, cost, and reliability, and is comfortable debugging issues across distributed systems in live production environments.

Key Responsibilities

Platform Engineering & Production Ownership

Engineer, configure, and operate production-grade GCP data platform services , including:

Dataproc

Dataflow

Cloud Composer (Airflow)

Pub/Sub

Google Cloud Storage (GCS)

Own platform configurations to ensure high availability, performance, scalability, and security compliance .

Design and maintain

Terraform-based Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC)

modules for standardized and repeatable platform provisioning.

Implement And Enforce Security And Governance Controls , Including

IAM least-privilege models

CMEK

VPC Service Controls

Organization policies

Workload Identity

L3 Troubleshooting & Deep Technical Support

Act as the

L3 escalation point for platform-related issues from data and application engineering teams.

Troubleshoot Complex Production Issues, Including

Dataproc / Spark / YARN job failures and performance bottlenecks

Dataflow pipeline backlogs, worker tuning, and throughput issues

Composer / Airflow scheduler failures, DAG dependency issues

Pub/Sub throughput, retention, and delivery behaviour issues

Analyse and clearly explain how GCP service configurations impact runtime behaviour, monitoring metrics, performance, and cost.

Perform root-cause analysis (RCA)

and implement long-term engineering fixes rather than short-term workarounds.

Monitoring, Performance & Reliability Engineering

Design and maintain monitoring, alerting, and observability using Cloud Monitoring and logging.

Interpret Service-level Metrics And Logs To Diagnose

Performance degradation

Scaling and capacity bottlenecks

Reliability and availability risks

Tune platform configurations for optimal performance, reliability, and cost efficiency.

Ensure platforms meet production uptime, SLA, and compliance requirements.

Automation, CI/CD & Engineering Tooling

Build automation using

Terraform, Python, and scripting to minimize manual intervention.

Integrate CI/CD Pipelines For

Platform configuration changes

Cloud Composer DAG deployments

Dataflow template promotions

Develop Reusable Frameworks For

Dependency packaging

Deployment workflows

Environment provisioning

Operational consistency

Platform Standards, Documentation & Enablement

Define and enforce platform standards and best practices .

Create And Maintain

Platform runbooks

Troubleshooting guides

Onboarding documentation

Enable development teams through self-service tooling, templates, and clear usage guidelines .

What This Role Is NOT

To avoid confusion, this role is explicitly not the following:

Not an L1 / L2 Operations or Support role no ticket triage, alert acknowledgment, or routine support tasks.

Not a shift-based or NOC role no 247 rotations or follow-the-sun support.

Not a DevOps-only role

CI/CD is an enabler, not the primary responsibility.

Not a pure Data Engineer role focus is on platform engineering , not business data transformations.

Not a Cloud Administrator role requires deep understanding of service behaviour, not just provisioning.

Not a break-fix role expectation is to engineer permanent solutions, automation, and standards .

Required Skills

GCP Platform & Data Services

Strong Hands-on Production Experience With

Dataproc (autoscaling, HA, init actions, Spark/YARN debugging)

Dataflow (Flex Templates, worker sizing, backlog handling)

Cloud Composer / Airflow (scheduler behaviour, scaling, DAG troubleshooting)

Pub/Sub (throughput, retention, delivery semantics)

GCS (IAM, lifecycle policies, CMEK, cross-project access)

Strong understanding of how configuration parameters impact performance, reliability, monitoring, and cost .

Engineering & Automation

Proven experience with

Terraform for IaC.

Strong

Python Scripting Skills (additional Scripting Languages Are a Plus).

Experience integrating CI/CD pipelines for cloud and data platforms.

Solid understanding of distributed systems, Spark, and Hadoop .

Monitoring, Performance & Databases

Experience analyzing production metrics and logs.

Ability to explain performance and reliability impacts of configuration changes.

Working knowledge of databases (SQL / NoSQL)

is a strong plus.

Leadership & Ownership

Ability to lead platform initiatives while remaining hands-on.

Strong communication skills to explain complex platform behavior clearly.

High ownership mindset with strong documentation discipline.

Preferred Certifications

Google Professional Data Engineer

Google Professional Cloud Architect

Google Associate Cloud Engineer
