About the Client

A large federal government organization is leading one of the most ambitious cloud transformation programs in Canada. This department delivers secure, modern, and reliable IT services across government, enabling federal organizations to provide digital programs that serve Canadians.
As part of the Government of Canada's Cloud Strategy 2024, all federal departments and agencies are centralizing their cloud services. To support this direction, the client is building an in-house compliance-as-code solution that monitors cloud security guardrails and reports compliance status across environments.
This is a contract.

Role Overview

We are seeking a Junior Cloud Engineer with hands-on experience in Google Cloud Platform and AWS. The successful candidate will work closely with the team lead and senior engineers, supporting development of automated guardrail monitoring solutions and ensuring compliance with federal cloud security standards.
You will:
  • Run and refine automation scripts.
  • Support Google Cloud Platform infrastructure builds and configurations.
  • Contribute to the in-house solution reporting on compliance.
  • Collaborate with senior resources to gain exposure to enterprise-scale IT security and cloud engineering practices.

Employee Value Proposition (EVP)

  • Opportunity to work with one of the largest cloud teams in the Government of Canada.
  • Exposure to leading cloud vendors (Google Cloud Platform, AWS, Azure, Salesforce, ServiceNow).
  • Hands-on experience with federal IT security best practices.
  • A stepping stone for a junior engineer to scale their skills while working alongside senior consultants and architects.

Work Environment

This individual will work directly with the team lead and a senior engineer (IT-2) on the Google Cloud Platform team. Two consultants are already supporting this director on SA&A work, and the team has an established relationship with TEKsystems.

Why the Role is Open

The client requires additional support to reduce the workload on the team lead while continuing to advance their compliance-as-code initiative. The previous consultant transitioned into a permanent position elsewhere, creating the opening.

Pay and Benefits

The pay range for this position is $400.00 - $400.00/hr.

Workplace Type

This is a fully remote position.
