Summary

Role: Cloud GenAI Platform Engineer (Google Cloud Platform + Azure) – Infrastructure Provisioning & Kubernetes

Location: Charlotte, NC (Onsite)

Type: Contract

Role Summary

  • We are seeking a hands-on Cloud GenAI Platform Engineer to support an enterprise GenAI platform enabling predictive and generative AI inferencing across both Google Cloud Platform and Azure. This role is focused on platform/infrastructure provisioning (IaaS/PaaS): creating cloud projects/subscriptions, enabling required services, establishing secure access/entitlements, deploying containerized components, and automating everything through Terraform. This is not an application development or RAG/agent pipeline build role.
  • Key Responsibilities (Day-to-Day)
  • Cloud Provisioning for GenAI Consumers: Build secure, repeatable cloud environments for internal teams consuming GenAI services (e.g., provisioning Google Cloud Platform projects / Azure resources, enabling notebooks, endpoint access, guardrails, telemetry integrations).
  • Infrastructure as Code (Terraform): Author, enhance, and maintain Terraform modules/scripts to automate:
  • Cloud project/resource creation
  • IAM/entitlements setup and access control
  • Network/security baseline configuration
  • Enablement of required GenAI platform services
  • Containers & Kubernetes Operations: Package, deploy, and troubleshoot containerized services; debug runtime issues, image builds, configuration, and cluster-level behavior.
  • Platform Troubleshooting & Support: Rapidly diagnose issues across cloud console/portals, infrastructure configs, IAM, containers, and platform integrations; drive issues to resolution with clear root-cause documentation.
  • Cross-Team Provisioning Coordination: Partner with internal platform/security/operations teams to complete environment provisioning and ensure standards are met.

Required Skills / Qualifications

  • Strong hands-on experience with both:
  • Google Cloud Platform (projects, IAM, service enablement, console navigation)
  • Azure (subscriptions/resource groups, IAM/RBAC, portal navigation)
  • Proven hands-on experience with:
  • Terraform (writing/debugging IaC, modularization, state management basics)
  • Containers (Docker/container build & runtime debugging)
  • Kubernetes (deployments, services, configmaps/secrets, troubleshooting)
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across:
  • Cloud access/permissions (IAM/RBAC)
  • Container failures, image issues, runtime misconfigurations
  • Basic networking and API connectivity patterns

Preferred / Nice-to-Have

  • Familiarity with GenAI platform governance/guardrails concepts (e.g., policy enforcement, request/response inspection).
  • Exposure to rate limiting / API gateway behaviors and diagnosing throttling patterns.
  • Experience in regulated enterprise environments (security-first provisioning).

Experience Level

  • Typically, 6–10+ years in cloud/platform engineering roles (flexible based on depth of hands-on skills).
