Join SADA India as a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer-GCP!
Your Mission
As a Senior Cloud Infrastructure Engineer at SADA, you will work collaboratively to deliver high quality infrastructure projects on Google Cloud Platform for our cloud and hybrid-cloud customers. You will have an opportunity to work on real-world problems facing our customers in the field. Engagements vary from being purely consultative to requiring heavy hands-on work, and cover a range of domain areas, such as workload migrations from on-premises or other Clouds to GCP, standing up production ready infrastructure on GCP, building hybrid-cloud solutions leveraging infrastructure-as-code automation, and developing fully automated CI/CD pipelines. Moreover, you will be someone who will drive thought leadership, delivering best practice recommendations for internal and external solutions.
You possess a diverse background in areas such as architecture design, distributed systems, infrastructure migration, and deployment strategies. To be successful, one must know how to navigate ambiguity, have extensive experience working with cloud technologies, have technical depth, and enjoy working with customers.
In this role, you will:
- Be expected to tackle all technical challenges on whole projects and to mentor less experienced Cloud Infrastructure Engineers. You should be able to work independently but should be a major participant in team reviews.
- Be recognized as having technical mastery within the practice with an established reputation with Google and our customers.
- Have demonstrable experience with public-facing activities such as blogs, presentations, webinars, and OSS contributions.
- Ensure the best architecture and engineering approach is applied. You will be expected to repeatedly deliver complex projects and will be the owner of the complete customer outcome, including complex technical components of the engagement.
- Participate in early-stage opportunity qualification calls, as well as lead client-facing technical discussions for established projects.
Pathway to Success
#MakeThemRave is at the foundation of every project our engineering teams take on. Our singular goal is to provide customers with the best possible experience in migrating, building, modernizing, and operationalizing their systems in Google Cloud Platform.
Your success starts by positively impacting the direction of a dynamic practice with vision and passion. You will be measured quarterly by the breadth, magnitude, and quality of your contributions, your ability to estimate accurately, customer feedback at the close of projects, how well you collaborate with your peers, and the consultative polish you bring to customer interactions.
As you continue to execute successfully, we will build a customized development plan together that leads you through the engineering or management growth tracks.
Expectations
Required Travel: 10% travel to customer sites, conferences, and other related events.
Customer Facing: You will interact with customers on a regular basis, sometimes daily, other times weekly/bi-weekly. Common touch points occur when qualifying potential opportunities, at project kickoff, throughout the engagement as progress is communicated, and at project close. You can expect to interact with a range of customer stakeholders, including engineers, technical project managers, and executives.
Onboarding/Training - The first several weeks of onboarding are dedicated to learning and will encompass learning materials/assignments and compliance training, as well as meetings with relevant individuals. Details of the timeline are shared closer to the start date.
