Google Cloud Platform Engineer – innovate, elevate, transform
Does this sound like you?
You’re not just an engineer who solves problems — you’re someone who moves things forward. You see every technical issue as a chance to innovate and every project as an opportunity to raise the bar. Whether you’re working with cutting-edge Google Cloud technology or sparring with a client on their next big leap, you’re driven by impact. You bring fresh ideas, a collaborative mindset, and the ambition to push both clients and colleagues to the next level.

We lead with deep expertise in cloud, data, AI, and software engineering — and we’re known for our hands-on, high-level, and human approach. As a strategic partner of Google Cloud, we don’t just implement solutions — we co-create them.
How you’ll make a difference
At Xebia, we go beyond keeping systems running — we help organizations reinvent themselves through the cloud. As part of our Managed Services & Engineering team, you’ll not only tackle complex technical challenges, but also bring innovative solutions to life for enterprise clients across Europe.
You’ll be joining a strong, close-knit team — Martijn, Friederike, Daan, and Lars — that thrives on trust, curiosity, and craftsmanship. From day one, you’ll take the lead on:
Bringing creative solutions to client challenges, not just fixing what’s broken but helping define what’s next
Co-shaping technical strategy with clients, Google engineers, and fellow Xebians
Sharing your ideas, tools, and patterns to help elevate the entire team — and shape how we do things internally
Contributing to the evolution of our support and innovation offering — and driving new ways of working
This role is equal parts problem-solver, thought partner, innovator, and mentor.
What you’ll be doing
Investigating complex Google Cloud issues — and turning them into lasting improvements
Designing smart solutions that make systems more resilient, scalable, and future-ready
Collaborating with Google support and client teams to co-create success
Onboarding new clients and shaping scalable ways to support them
Sharing your knowledge in team sessions, internal tools, blog posts, or tech talks
Experimenting with new tools and approaches — and bringing them into production
What we offer you
Working at Xebia means having the freedom and trust to do your best work — and grow in the direction that excites you.
A personal development budget to invest in skills that matter to you
Weekly team knowledge sessions (with great food!)
The freedom to attend and speak at leading tech events
The gear you choose — laptop and phone, replaced every 2 years
Unlimited book budget (yes, really)
The chance to shape internal tooling, share open source, and mentor others
A flat, informal culture where ideas win, not titles
Legendary team events — BBQs, themed parties, ski trips, even Ibiza
This is your dream job if you…
Want to help clients innovate — not just operate
Love using Google Cloud to build, break, and rebuild better
Enjoy working in a smart, fun, ambitious team
Like shaping internal standards and mentoring others
Thrive in an environment that values ideas, not hierarchy
Want to grow as an engineer, leader, and innovator
This is not your dream job if you…
Want everything to be clearly defined and predictable
Prefer maintenance over experimentation
Would rather write specs than pair with a customer
Don’t enjoy sharing knowledge or challenging the status quo
