Job Title: Engineering Manager – AWS to GCP Migration

Experience: 15+ Years

Location: Remote (USA)

Primary Focus: AWS → GCP Migration | Data Engineering | Data Architecture | Engineering Leadership

Position Overview

We are looking for an experienced Engineering Manager with strong hands‑on expertise in AWS and GCP Data Engineering to lead a large‑scale AWS‑to‑GCP data platform migration.

The ideal candidate will have strong experience designing enterprise data platforms on AWS and migrating them to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The role requires a combination of technical architecture, hands‑on engineering, migration leadership, team management and stakeholder management.

The candidate should have strong hands‑on experience with AWS services such as S3, Glue, Redshift, Athena, Step Functions and AWS DMS, along with strong GCP expertise across BigQuery, Dataflow, Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage and Cloud Composer.

The Engineering Manager will work closely with US‑based stakeholders, architects, engineers, DevOps teams, Data Science and BI teams to define the migration strategy and ensure successful execution.

Key Responsibilities

1. AWS to GCP Migration Leadership

Lead the end‑to‑end migration of enterprise data platforms from AWS to GCP.

Assess existing AWS architecture, data pipelines, workloads, dependencies and operational processes.

Define the target‑state GCP architecture and migration roadmap.

Develop migration strategies for:

  • AWS Step Functions → Cloud Composer / Workflows

Identify opportunities to modernise AWS workloads rather than performing a simple lift‑and‑shift migration.

Define migration phases, technical dependencies, risks and rollback strategies.

Lead architecture reviews and technical design discussions.

Architect and implement scalable enterprise data platforms on GCP.

Design Data Lake and Lakehouse architectures using GCS and BigQuery.

Define Bronze, Silver and Gold/Atomic data layers.

Design scalable data ingestion, transformation and consumption frameworks.

Establish standards for data modelling, partitioning, clustering and storage.

Design multi‑tenant and multi‑location data architectures.

Define schema‑on‑read and schema‑on‑write strategies.

3. AWS Data Platform Expertise

Work with:

  • Amazon S3
  • AWS Glue
  • AWS Glue Data Quality
  • Amazon Athena
  • AWS Step Functions
  • AWS DMS
  • AWS Lake Formation

Understand existing AWS ETL/ELT pipelines, data models, workloads and dependencies.

Identify equivalent or improved GCP services for each AWS workload.

Prepare technical mapping and migration plans between AWS and GCP services.

  • Google Pub/Sub
  • Dataflow / Apache Beam
  • BigQuery

Design high‑volume event ingestion, enrichment and transformation pipelines.

Implement event‑driven architectures and appropriate delivery guarantees.

Optimise streaming pipelines for latency, throughput and scalability.

Implement monitoring, logging and alerting for real‑time workloads.

5. ETL / ELT & Data Processing

Design and implement scalable batch and real‑time ETL/ELT pipelines.

Migrate AWS Glue‑based pipelines to appropriate GCP services.

Develop transformation frameworks using:

  • Python
  • PySpark
  • SQL
  • Dataflow / Apache Beam
  • BigQuery
  • dbt

Design CDC pipelines and real‑time ingestion patterns.

Build orchestration workflows using Cloud Composer / Airflow.

Optimise data processing jobs and query performance.

6. Data Modelling & BigQuery

Design enterprise data models for analytics and reporting.

Define dimensional, normalised and denormalised data models.

Design BigQuery partitioning and clustering strategies.

Optimise BigQuery SQL and query execution.

Design data models supporting both real‑time and batch workloads.

Work closely with BI and Analytics teams to create scalable consumption models.

7. Data Governance, Security & Quality

Establish data governance and data quality standards across the GCP platform.

Implement automated data quality checks and validation frameworks.

Establish data lineage, metadata and ownership standards.

Ensure appropriate security controls across all GCP data layers.

Implement:

  • IAM
  • Encryption
  • Service accounts
  • Network security

Work with governance and security teams to ensure compliance requirements are met.

Experience with Dataplex, Data Catalog and data lineage is preferred.

8. DevOps, Infrastructure & Automation

Build repeatable and secure GCP infrastructure deployments.

Work with:

  • Terraform
  • Git
  • GitHub

Automate data pipeline deployment, testing and infrastructure provisioning.

Establish Dev, QA, UAT and Production deployment standards.

9. Performance & Cost Optimisation

Lead performance optimisation initiatives across GCP data workloads.

Optimise:

  • BigQuery query performance
  • Partitioning and clustering
  • Dataflow pipelines

Analyse AWS workloads and determine the most cost‑effective GCP architecture.

Develop cloud FinOps and cost optimisation strategies.

Establish performance benchmarks and SLAs for critical workloads.

10. Engineering Management & Team Leadership

Lead and mentor a team of Data Engineers, Senior Data Engineers and Technical Leads.

Provide technical direction and establish engineering standards.

Conduct architecture and code reviews.

Define technical roadmaps and engineering priorities.

Break complex migration requirements into actionable deliverables.

Track engineering progress, risks, dependencies and delivery milestones.

Promote best practices around coding, testing, CI/CD, security and documentation.

Mentor engineers on GCP, data architecture and modern data engineering practices.

11. Stakeholder & Client Management

Act as the primary technical point of contact for US‑based stakeholders.

Work closely with Business, Product, Data Science, BI and DevOps teams.

Translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.

Present architecture decisions, migration strategies and technical roadmaps.

Communicate technical risks, dependencies, timelines and trade‑offs.

Collaborate with business teams to define operational and analytical KPIs.
