Join Neurons Lab as a Senior GCP Cloud Engineer working on Generative AI solutions for banking clients. You'll be hands-on building production infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform while contributing to architecture design, with a strong focus on security, compliance, and operational excellence.

Our Focus: Banking and Financial Services clients with stringent regulatory requirements (PCI-DSS, GDPR, MAS TRM). You'll architect and implement GenAI solutions - from RAG systems to ML platforms - while ensuring enterprise-grade security and compliance.

Your Impact: Build cloud infrastructure using Terraform, Kubernetes, and Docker. Work across multiple banking GenAI projects, implementing architectures, creating reusable IaC patterns, and maintaining the highest security standards required by financial institutions.

Duration: Part-time long-term engagement with project-based allocations

Reporting: Direct report to Head of Cloud

Objective

Build and operate GenAI cloud infrastructure for banking clients on Google Cloud Platform:

  • Engineering Excellence: Build production infrastructure using Terraform, deploy on Kubernetes/GKE, containerize with Docker, implement CI/CD pipelines
  • Architecture Support: Contribute to architecture design, create technical specifications, and provide engineering insights during solution design
  • Client Success: Implement secure, scalable, cost-effective solutions aligned with GCP best practices and financial regulations
  • Knowledge Transfer: Create reusable IaC patterns, comprehensive documentation, and operational runbooks
Areas of Responsibility

Cloud Engineering (70%):

  • Build and maintain GCP infrastructure using Terraform - develop reusable modules for GenAI patterns
  • Deploy and manage applications on GKE - Kubernetes manifests, Helm charts, container security
  • Containerize applications with Docker - multi-stage builds, optimization, security
  • Develop Python applications: FastAPI backends, GenAI integration (RAG, LLM apps, chat interfaces)
  • Deploy GenAI model serving: Vertex AI endpoints, containerized models on GKE, vector databases
  • Implement CI/CD pipelines: Cloud Build, GitHub Actions, automated testing and deployment
  • Security & compliance: IAM, VPC Service Controls, encryption, banking regulations (PCI-DSS, GDPR, MAS TRM)
  • Cost optimization: GPU/TPU workload optimization, spot VMs, auto-scaling, monitoring
  • Manage GPU resources, ML pipelines, model performance monitoring

Architecture Support (30%):

  • Contribute to GCP architecture design for GenAI solutions (RAG, LLM applications, ML platforms)
  • Create technical specifications, provide cost estimates and feasibility input
  • Participate in technical presentations and demos
  • Stay current with GCP AI/ML services (Vertex AI, Gemini, etc.)

  • Deploy infrastructure through IaC (Terraform) with zero manual configuration
  • Create at least 3 reusable IaC components or architectural patterns per quarter
  • Implement CI/CD pipelines for all projects with automated testing and deployment
  • Document architecture and implementation details for knowledge sharing
  • Maintain 95%+ uptime for production GenAI endpoints
