We're looking for a GCP Site Reliability Engineer to oversee our client's cloud data pipelines from start to finish. You'll be the go-to person for keeping everything running smoothly, jumping in when things break, and making sure their data flows reliably.
The perfect fit for this role brings solid cloud data engineering experience and really knows their way around Google Cloud Platform services (or willing to transition quickly) and how data pipelines work. You're someone who can dive into complex problems on your own, figure out what's going wrong, and get things back on track.
Beyond the technical troubleshooting, you'll put your software engineering skills to work by finding creative ways to make our pipelines faster, more reliable, and more efficient. We're looking for someone who thinks outside the box and stays ahead of potential issues before they become real problems.
