Senior DevOps Engineer - GCP

We’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer with strong, hands‑on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) experience to join a major cloud transformation programme.

This is a 12-month contract, with extensions considered likely, focused on migrating infrastructure from on-premise environments into GCP and building the cloud platforms, automation and infrastructure needed to support the transformation.

The role will initially require approximately 2–3 days per week onsite in Stockport , moving to predominantly remote working once established.

The role

You’ll join a cloud engineering team responsible for designing, building and automating new GCP infrastructure.

This is primarily a project and engineering role rather than BAU support , with operational responsibility handed over to TechOps once solutions are established.

You’ll be working across:

• Terraform / Infrastructure as Code
• Cloud networking and security
• Bash / Python
• Ansible
• CI/CD

What we’re looking for:

Strong, recent hands‑on GCP experience is essential for this role.

We’re particularly interested in engineers who have worked directly on GCP infrastructure, cloud migrations or major GCP transformation programmes , rather than candidates whose cloud experience is primarily AWS or Azure.

You’ll also need strong experience with:

• Kubernetes, ideally GKE
• Terraform / Infrastructure as Code
• Cloud infrastructure and networking
• Automation and scripting

Experience with Ansible, AWS, CI/CD and cloud security would be useful but isn't essential.

If you’re a Senior DevOps Engineer with strong GCP, Kubernetes/GKE, Terraform and Linux experience and want a long-term contract focused on cloud migration and engineering, we’d like to hear from you.
