8+ years in cloud architecture roles, with at least 3 years specifically on Google Cloud Platform in an architect or lead capacity.

- Demonstrated experience designing and executing a live production migration from another

hyperscaler (Azure or AWS) to GCP,
- Deep working knowledge of core GCP services relevant to this program: Cloud Run, Cloud SQL

(PostgreSQL), Cloud Storage, Memorystore, Vertex AI, Cloud Load Balancing, VPC/Shared VPC, IAM, Secret Manager, Cloud Trace/Monitoring.
- Working knowledge of the equivalent Azure services being replaced: Azure OpenAI, Cosmos DB,

Azure SQL Database, Blob Storage, Azure Cache for Redis, Application Insights.
- Experience with LLM-based application architectures, ideally including agent-orchestration

frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain and familiarity with the practical differences between LLM providers (prompt behavior, JSON-output reliability, context-window/cost tradeoffs) when migrating between them.




- Experience designing data migration and dual-write/reconciliation strategies for production systems

with zero-downtime requirements.
- Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform preferred) and CI/CD orchestration (Harness

preferred, or equivalent), sufficient to guide — not necessarily implement — the infrastructure engineering team.
- Strong stakeholder communication skills; comfortable presenting architecture trade-offs and risk to

both technical and business audiences at phase-gate reviews.
- Positive to have Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect certification.
- Nice to have experience in evaluating or architecting with Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK),

for informing future-state agent architecture decision
