Cloud Engineer / Remote / PST Only / Short term Contract

About the job A global enterprise is retiring a legacy data-integration tool (SnapLogic) and rebuilding that capability natively on Google Cloud Platform. We're looking for a hands-on DevOps / Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to help stand up new regional landing zones and build the reusable, standards-based infrastructure templates that internal teams will self-serve to onboard new workloads. The architecture pattern is already established — your focus is building and implementing it to standard, not inventing it. The first implementation supports a manufacturing business domain, and the pattern you help build becomes the standard for future onboarding. This is a build role for someone who is currently in the weeds, not an advisory or architecture-only seat. What You'll Do Build and configure GCP landing zones across multiple regions (Germany, Japan, and the EU), with data-residency requirements as a first-class constraint. Develop reusable Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) modules and templates that internal teams can spin up and self-serve in their own environments. Implement the GCP-native infrastructure that replaces the retiring data-integration tooling. Apply established architecture standards and patterns consistently across regions. Configure GCP networking, IAM, and security guardrails to enable least-privilege, self-service provisioning. Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure delivery. Document templates and standards for downstream implementation teams. Must-Have Qualifications Strong, current, hands-on GCP experience — this is a build role. Production-grade Terraform (or equivalent IaC), including reusable module/template design for self-service consumption. Solid GCP networking and IAM (custom roles, service accounts, least-privilege design). Multi-region deployment experience with an understanding of data-residency / data-sovereignty controls. CI/CD for infrastructure. Ability to work independently against an established pattern and deliver within a short, focused engagement. Nice-to-Have GCP data-integration / pipeline services (Dataflow, Cloud Composer/Airflow, Pub/Sub, Data Fusion). Familiarity with SnapLogic or similar iPaaS/ETL tooling (helpful for understanding what's being replaced). Experience supporting manufacturing or other compliance-sensitive domains. Exposure to EU and/or Japan data-protection requirements.
