In this field, you will use your knowledge to design, code, and test cutting-edge applications that revolutionise industries and deliver exceptional user experiences.As a GCP Developer, you will design and implement scalable, secure cloud solutions using Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services. Your responsibilities include architecting infrastructure and application workflows with Compute Engine, GKE, Cloud Functions, and BigQuery. You will automate deployments and manage CI/CD pipelines using Terraform, Cloud Build, and GitOps practices. Ensuring compliance, performance, and cost optimization across multi-environment GCP workloads is essential. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to drive cloud-native adoption and innovation and lead the implementation and optimization of Technology-as-a-Service (TaaS) solutions on GCP. Additionally, you will design and deliver reusable Golden Path blueprints to accelerate secure, scalable cloud adoption for prioritized workloads.

Meaningful work you'll be a part of
As a GCP Developer , you will be responsible for owning and continuously enhancing an internal developer portal built on a SaaS foundation. This portal serves as the central hub for engineering teams, integrating public APIs, webhooks, and custom UI/UX components designed with jQuery and modern JavaScript frameworks to deliver a seamless developer experience.

• You will architect and maintain Python-based microservices leveraging frameworks such as FastAPI , Django, and Flask , building both RESTful and asynchronous APIs . Your work will span across relational and NoSQL databases , ensuring scalable and reliable data management.
• On the infrastructure side, you will deploy and operate services on GCP , while also leveraging Docker, Kubernetes, and serverless technologies to support diverse workloads. You will define and optimize CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code templates, and automated testing workflows , enabling rapid, secure, and consistent delivery.
• Security and reliability are core to the role. You will implement enterprise-grade authentication mechanisms (OAuth2, OpenID, SSO), enforce high availability and compliance baselines , and troubleshoot complex production issues to maintain optimal performance.
• Beyond technical delivery, you will play a leadership role: conducting architecture and code reviews , mentoring junior engineers, and collaborating across product and platform teams to align on best practices. Candidates with contributions to open-source projects, technical blogs, or experience with platforms like Backstage or Temporal.io will be highly valued, as these demonstrate thought leadership and community engagement .

Experiences and skills you'll use to solve
• 5-7 years of hands-on experience in data engineering and cloud-native development
• Proven expertise in GCP services, including infrastructure, automation, and data solutions
• Advanced proficiency in Python, SQL, and distributed data processing (e.g., PySpark )
• Experience with CI/CD, Infrastructure-as-Code, and cloud security best practices
• Strong collaboration and leadership skills, with a track record of driving cloud adoption and innovation
• Deep understanding of data storage optimization within Google Cloud Storage (GCS), including file format selection (e.g., Delta, Parquet), object partitioning strategies (e.g., prefix-based, BigQuery table partitioning), and Cloud Storage Object Lifecycle Management for cost and performance.
• Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot and solve complex, ambiguous data problems in a production environment, including performance tuning and root cause analysis.
• Bachelor's degree in computer science, Engineering, Information Technology, or related field.
• Advanced proficiency in Python and SQL; experience with distributed data processing frameworks such as PySpark on Google Cloud Dataproc .
• Hands-on expertise with Google Cloud Composer (managed Airflow), Cloud Data Fusion, Google Cloud Databricks, and Google Cloud Storage (GCS), including dynamic pipeline creation and hybrid data movement (e.g., via Cloud Storage Transfer Service).
• Strong background in CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code; proven ability to automate deployments using Terraform, Cloud Build, and GitOps practices.
• Proficient in containerization and orchestration using Docker and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).
• Knowledge of cloud security and compliance, including enterprise-grade authentication (Cloud Identity, IAM, OAuth2, OpenID, SSO) and troubleshooting production issues for reliability using Cloud Monitoring, Cloud Logging, and Cloud Trace.
• Familiarity with ELT patterns, data warehousing (BigQuery , star schema), data lake architectures (Google Cloud Storage, e.g., Medallion), and storage optimization strategies (Delta Lake on GCS, Parquet on GCS, BigQuery partitioning).
• Experience with real-time data ingestion from sources such as Google Cloud Pub/Sub, Kafka, REST APIs, and SFTP.
• PwC Canadaiscommitted to cultivating an inclusive, hybrid work environment. Exact expectations for your team can be discussed with your interviewer.
