About the job
The Google Australia Sovereign Cloud team builds, delivers and operates secure private cloud services. We aim to provide flexibility, reliability and scalability for an end to end capability, from the core to the edge, to enable operation in complex environments. We deliver and operate these private cloud deployments for the most critical Australian Federal Government customers, helping scale, secure and maintain the deployment whilst working closely with Google product teams to continually improve our technology.
As a Technical Solutions Consultant within the Google Australia Sovereign Cloud team, you will be a driving lead behind the technical execution and operational scaling of secure private cloud assets and services. Beyond executing complex deployments, you will be instrumental in supporting (and at times, architecting) the team’s internal software functions and scaling our operational capabilities to meet the needs of the Australian Federal Government. You will own high-complexity deliverables and act as a critical bridge between software engineering theory and field-ready sovereign technology, ensuring the seamless lifecycle management of cloud assets and services.
Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry. We deliver enterprise-grade solutions that leverage Google’s cutting-edge technology, and tools that help developers build more sustainably. Customers in more than 200 countries and territories turn to Google Cloud as their trusted partner to enable growth and solve their most critical business problems.
Responsibilities
- Lead the development and introduction of required software products and development of standard operating procedures (SOPs), automation frameworks, and deployment playbooks that allow the team to configure, release and scale software operations across Australia.
- Own the end-to-end lifecycle of multiple medium-to-high complexity software solutions, focusing on CI/CD pipeline development, version control, automated testing, and release management.
- Manage the technical deployment and orchestration of software on tactical edge and mobile data center platforms, optimizing performance for resource-constrained environments (low power, intermittent connectivity).
- Ensure the reliability and maintainability of software systems operating in disconnected environments meet strict sovereign and regulatory requirements.
- Mentor less experienced team members and drive collaboration with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure the alignment of operational software activities with broader Google product roadmaps.
