Senior Google Cloud Engineer JLL Technologies JLL is seeking a Senior Google Cloud Engineer to design, implement, and maintain scalable, secure infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform. The role requires expertise in infrastructure automation, cloud security, networking, and CI/CD pipelines. This individual will provide hands-on support across GCP compute, container, networking, data, and platform services — including resource provisioning, application deployment support, incident remediation, automation, and continuous improvement.

Design, build, and automate solutions that improve the efficiency, scalability, and reliability of infrastructure, with a primary focus on GCP. Design, implement, and support enterprise-scale GCP platform services (GKE, Compute Engine, Cloud Run, Cloud Functions), applying working knowledge of Azure and AWS where multi-cloud context is needed. Deploy, configure, and maintain GCP resources like containers, serverless functions, and databases as per project requirements. Monitor, troubleshoot, and remediate GCP infrastructure, performance, and security issues using tools like Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Logging. Partner with development teams to build and mature CI/CD pipelines (e.g GitHub Actions), primarily for GCP with support for cross-cloud deployments as needed. Use Terraform to automate infrastructure provisioning and configuration management, standardizing deployment patterns across GCP environments. Use Rundeck to build and manage operational runbooks and scripted job workflows, enabling self-service automation for routine and repeatable infrastructure tasks. Conduct security assessments and enforce best practices across IAM, VPC Service Controls, encryption, and org policies, applying similar principles in other cloud environments. Collaborate cross-functionally to architect highly available, scalable GCP solutions, factoring in interoperability with Azure/AWS where needed. Optimize GCP resource usage and costs using billing reports, recommenders, and committed use discounts, contributing to broader multi-cloud cost efforts. Stay current on GCP updates and best practices while maintaining working familiarity with Azure and AWS. Experience & Education A Bachelor's/Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field. 7+ years of cloud engineering experience, with at least 3+ years of experience working in Google Cloud environments. 3+ years of architecture design, implementation, and support of highly distributed setups (ensuring high availability and reliability). 2+ years of experience migrating on-premises workloads to the public cloud. Technical Skills & Competencies Strong understanding of GCP infrastructure, automation, and cloud-native architecture, with hands-on experience delivering infrastructure solutions for application teams. Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform to automate provisioning and configuration management. Hands-on experience with Rundeck for building scripted automation workflows and operational runbooks to reduce manual intervention. Solid understanding of GCP networking (VPC, firewall rules, Cloud DNS, load balancing), security best practices (IAM, org policies), and data privacy requirements. Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills across GCP compute, networking, and platform services, with the ability to work through issues using
