Hiring guide

What to look for in a Google Cloud freelancer

A strong Google Cloud expert should know the platform well and automate everything. Look for:

  • Real GCP project experience, ideally with certifications to back it up.
  • Fluency with core services: GKE, BigQuery, Cloud Run, and Cloud Storage.
  • Infrastructure as code: Terraform or Deployment Manager over manual setup.
  • Solid IAM and networking: least privilege and sensible VPC design.
  • Operations know-how: Cloud Monitoring, logging, and dependable deploys.

Ask the candidate to compare two GCP services they would consider for your workload and explain the tradeoff.
