Job Description Insight Global is seeking an experienced GCP Cloud Engineer to serve as a core member of a Security Green Team

• the function responsible for translating vulnerability and misconfiguration findings into durable, automated remediation that is embedded into how cloud infrastructure is built and maintained.

Moving beyond a reactive, manual approach to patching, this individual will own the configuration remediation pipeline for the Google Cloud estate: codifying fixes as infrastructure as code, automating patch and image lifecycle management, hardening cloud baselines against CIS benchmarks, and enforcing policies and guardrails through policy-as-code. This is a hands-on engineering position in which architects establish strategic direction and the engineer executes against it. As the organization's Google Cloud footprint continues to mature, the successful candidate should anticipate a significant volume of foundational hardening work.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assess the current GCP and broader cloud environment to identify hardening and configuration gaps.
• Validate that guardrails are in place and meet CIS benchmarks.
• Design and implement policy enforcement and guardrails across GCP via policy-as-code and continuous compliance scanning.
• Codify fixes and standards as Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) so misconfigurations do not reappear downstream.
• Build and harden CI/CD pipelines with development teams, integrating security and policy gates.
• Prepare the environment for forthcoming container and Kubernetes workloads as the Kubernetes platform team engages.
• Coordinate server patching and lifecycle management with the platform and Linux teams.
• Maintain dashboards and reporting on security posture, remediation velocity, and cloud risk.
