--What will your typical day look like?As our ideal candidate, you will combine deep GCP technical expertise with client-facing consulting skills. On a typical engagement you will:
- Architect and lead delivery of modern data platforms on Google Cloud - data lakes, lakehouses, and warehouses built on BigQuery, Dataproc, Dataflow, Cloud Storage, and Pub/Sub.
- Design ingestion, transformation, and serving layers using Dataform / dbt, Composer (Airflow), and BigQuery-native patterns; drive migrations from Teradata, Netezza, on-prem Hadoop, or other clouds.
- Stand up the governance backbone - Dataplex catalog, lineage, quality rules, row/column-level security, VPC-SC - so downstream analytics and AI workloads are safe and auditable.
- Partner with our GCP Agent Platform Architects to make the semantic layer, retrieval indices, and feature stores that Gemini agents and Vertex AI models depend on.
- Lead 2-4 engineers on the delivery team; contribute to Deloitte's data-platform reference architectures, accelerators, and enablement.
About the teamThe focus and passion of Deloitte's Cloud Engineering practice is to help our clients become a place where their employees are passionate about the work they do, and can dramatically accelerate the speed at which they deliver value.

- Experience with transformation and orchestration tooling: Dataform, dbt, Cloud Composer / Airflow.
- Strong data-modeling skills - dimensional, Data Vault, and modern lakehouse patterns; comfortable choosing between them for the client's use case.
