About the Role
We are seeking an experienced GCP Technical Project Manager to lead the end-to-end delivery of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) engagements, from pre-sales solutioning through project execution and customer success.

Ensure quality assurance, compliance, and governance standards are met throughout delivery.

Lead technical solutioning discussions, ensuring architectural decisions align with project scope, budget, and timeline constraints.

Support capability-building initiatives such as internal training, accelerators, and reusable delivery assets.
Stay current on GCP product roadmap, tooling, and industry trends to continuously improve delivery practices.
