GCP Engineer

GCP / DevOps / Cloud Engineer - Cloud rebuild and design | GCP, BigQuery, Data, Security | Leading Digital Publisher / Finance

• 2-month contract
• £550 - £650 p/d Outside IR35
• Fully Remote

The Role

Our client, a global digital publisher and consumer finance platform, is launching a short-term project to audit, secure, and rebuild their Google Cloud Platform (GCP) infrastructure to best-practice standards. You’ll work directly with the CTO, taking ownership of the environment to ensure it’s secure, compliant, and scalable as a future customer data platform.

This is a hands-on cloud security and infrastructure role in a fast-paced, delivery-focused setting, where strong BigQuery expertise is essential.

Non-Negotiable Experience

• Advanced Google Cloud Platform (GCP) administration
• BigQuery and data infrastructure expertise
• Proven application of cloud security best practices
• VPC and GCP networking design knowledge

Core Focus Areas

Phase 1 – Audit & Secure the Existing GCP Environment, which looks like:

• Role based access
• Privileged Identity Management (PIM)
• segregation of duties
• encryption keys
• audit logs
• anomaly detection
• SCIM

Phase 2 – and then, build a New Simplified Environment:

• Design and deploy a new GCP architecture.
• This will then act as a robust ‘customer data platform’ that sits on Hightouch.

You will essentially be re-architecting/building a new GCP platform that will be structured and secured to comply to USA data compliance laws which the CTO will outline to you.

(HIPAA or healthcare compliance experience not required – context can be learned on the job.)

Why Join / Project Impact

This is an opportunity to define security and governance foundations for a high-visibility platform under a globally recognised brand.

You’ll have autonomy, clear objectives, and the chance to deliver meaningful improvements to a cloud environment that underpins data-driven publishing worldwide.
