We’re hiring a skilled Remote Google Cloud DevOps Engineer who thrives in dynamic environments and embraces modern DevOps strategies. This position is ideal for an individual who wants to play a hands-on role in scaling resilient, cost-efficient systems using Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Working 100% remotely, you'll collaborate with global teams to build future-ready infrastructure that empowers engineering excellence. Our team prioritizes innovation, efficiency, and flexibility, making this an ideal opportunity for engineers who want to leave a real impact in a cloud-native ecosystem. Annual Salary: $140,005

Key Responsibilities

Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

• Design and implement infrastructure using Terraform, with a focus on modularization, versioning, and repeatability.
• Manage resource provisioning, networking, IAM policies, and automation scripts in Google Cloud.
• Utilize Deployment Manager and Terraform Cloud for scalable, automated deployments.

Cloud Architecture & Google Cloud Platform Management

• Architect, maintain, and evolve cloud infrastructure across multiple GCP services, including GKE, Cloud Run, Pub/Sub, and BigQuery.
• Apply network security principles such as private clusters, firewall rules, and VPC Service Controls.
• Manage IAM roles, billing configurations, and project hierarchies aligned with business requirements.

CI/CD and Release Engineering

• Build high-performance CI/CD workflows using Cloud Build, GitHub Actions, and Jenkins.
• Enable canary releases, blue-green deployments, and rollback strategies.
• Automate code quality checks, image scanning, and artifact delivery pipelines.

Monitoring, Observability, and Incident Response

• Deploy and manage observability stacks using Google Cloud’s Operations Suite, Grafana, and Prometheus.
• Define SLAs, SLOs, and SLIs that support proactive performance optimization.
• Drive incident reviews and postmortems while building dashboards and alerts that keep teams informed.

Security and Governance

• Implement secure key and secret management using Secret Manager and Vault.
• Establish compliance-ready practices (e.g., SOC 2, HIPAA) across infrastructure and delivery pipelines.
• Continuously audit systems and enforce policy-as-code using tools like Config Validator.

Tools and Technologies You'll Use

• GCP Services: GKE, Cloud Build, Cloud Functions, Cloud Run, Cloud Armor, BigQuery
• IaC: Terraform, Deployment Manager, Config Connector
• DevOps: Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Spinnaker, Argo CD
• Monitoring: Stackdriver, Prometheus, Grafana
• Security: Secret Manager, IAM, Forseti, Vault
• Languages: Python, Go, Bash
• Collaboration: Slack, Zoom, Jira, Confluence

Preferred Qualifications

• Minimum 5 years of experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, or SRE roles
• Extensive experience managing production workloads on GCP
• Fluency with Kubernetes deployments, autoscaling, and custom resource definitions
• Track record of building CI/CD systems with integration testing and rollback mechanisms
• Strong understanding of cloud networking, IAM, service accounts, and policy enforcement
• Comfortable working with GitOps workflows and infrastructure security practices

Work Culture and Environment

Fully Remote & Globally Connected

• Take advantage of location independence while remaining closely connected through cloud-native collaboration tools.
• Teams operate across time zones and embrace asynchronous communication.

Agile-Driven Engineering

• Work in short, efficient sprints guided by retrospectives and continuous feedback.
• Influence backlogs, participate in architectural design sessions, and own key deliverables.

Culture of Learning and Data-Informed Decisions

• All decisions are backed by metrics: latency, throughput, deployment frequency, and error rates.
• Engineers have access to cloud labs, sandbox environments, and company-funded learning subscriptions.

Why Join Us?

• Build cloud infrastructure used by millions across scalable, secure platforms.
• Innovate within a DevOps culture that prioritizes experimentation, clean code, and collaborative design.
• Push the boundaries of automation, observability, and self-healing systems.
• Earn a highly competitive annual salary of $140,005, along with generous benefits and stock options.

Growth and Development Opportunities

• Advance your career with dedicated mentorship, 360-degree feedback, and cross-functional collaboration.
• Participate in global DevOps meetups, virtual tech summits, and Google Cloud certification programs.
• Pathways toward Cloud Architect, Site Reliability Manager, or Platform Engineering Lead roles.

What Success Looks Like in This Role

• You’ve reduced infrastructure provisioning time by 40% through Terraform automation.
• Uptime across services remains above 99.99% through your monitoring and alerting setups.
• Your CI/CD pipelines deliver secure, production-ready code with zero manual intervention.
• Audit readiness is simplified because you enforce automated compliance checks.

The Impact You’ll Make

Your work will shape the scalability, resilience, and cost efficiency of our infrastructure across multiple product lines. You'll not only respond to production issues but preempt them with intelligent automation, logging, and recovery systems. As part of our engineering ecosystem, you’ll set best practices, support peer growth, and accelerate cloud maturity across the company.

Ready to Innovate from Anywhere?

If you’re excited about creating self-healing infrastructure, accelerating release cycles, and simplifying cloud management, this is your next big opportunity. We’re hiring individuals who think creatively, operate transparently, and deploy fearlessly. You’ll find purpose, flexibility, and constant technical evolution in this fully remote role.
