Job Description

About the Role

As a Google Cloud Senior Solutions Architect at NCS, you will be a visionary technical leader, steering the design, deployment, and continuous refinement of cutting-edge cloud-based solutions that empower our clients to achieve their business goals. By fostering strong partnerships with stakeholders, you will gain a deep understanding of their unique challenges and aspirations, translating those insights into robust, secure, and transformative architectures that leverage the full potential of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Your mastery of DevOps + GitOps principles and expertise in platform engineering, particularly around Google Cloud and Terraform/IAC Tooling, will be essential as you champion a culture of automation, agility, and reliability throughout the development lifecycle.

Your exceptional communication and interpersonal skills will shine as you navigate the organizational landscape, effortlessly translating the project's complex technical intricacies into clear, compelling narratives that resonate with both technical and non-technical audiences. This role is as much about influence and collaboration as it is about technical acumen, as you inspire teams and executives alike to embrace the power of cloud technologies to drive innovation and business success.

As The GCP Solution Architect, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our cloud solutions. You'll wear multiple hats – strategist, technical guru, mentor, and influencer – to drive innovation and success for our clients.

You'll lead the design of comprehensive cloud solutions, ensuring perfect alignment with our clients' strategic objectives. Your ability to translate business needs into robust and scalable cloud architectures will be crucial.

Your deep technical expertise with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services will be invaluable. Clients will rely on you as a trusted advisor, offering insights into best practices and emerging technologies that can revolutionize their operations.

You're passionate about exploring the cutting edge of cloud computing. You'll spearhead the implementation of innovative solutions that solve complex business problems and deliver tangible value to our clients.

Sharing your knowledge and experience with your team is a core tenet of your leadership style. You'll foster a culture of continuous learning and improvement, where everyone can reach their full potential.

Effective communication is key to your success. You can speak the language of technology fluently, but you can also break down complex concepts for non-technical audiences. Your ability to build consensus and influence stakeholders will be crucial in driving new and successful outcomes.

If you're a visionary leader with a passion for cloud technology and a collaborative spirit, we want to hear from you
