How You’ll Make an Impact
As a Consultant within our Google Cloud practice, you will be a core builder driving our clients' cloud transformations. This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role where you will execute technical requirements and build secure, scalable environments using Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Kubernetes, and Terraform. Working closely with our Senior Technical Leads, you will implement best-practice infrastructure while gaining exposure to the cutting-edge generative AI workloads we deploy for our SLED and Higher Education clients.
Key Responsibilities

● AI Infrastructure Support: Assist Senior Consultants in provisioning the foundational cloud infrastructure required to support modern AI workloads (e.g., preparing environments for Vertex AI deployments).
● Project Delivery: Collaborate seamlessly with internal Project Managers and Senior technical staff to execute assigned tasks, resolve blockers, and document technical configurations.
