Google Cloud Solutions Lead

As Solutions Lead for Google Cloud, you will be responsible for continuously creating market-ready solutions on GCP, enabling the sales team to take them to clients, and building the delivery and solutions team that brings it all to life.

This is not a pure-play architect role. You will need to think commercially understanding which solutions sell, what clients in Insurance, Retail, and CPG need, and how to package JK Techs capabilities (including our Gen AI platform JIVA) into compelling, repeatable offerings on Google Cloud. You will also own hiring: identifying the right talent, building the right team structure, and ensuring JK Tech has the GCP competency depth needed to win and deliver.

If youve spent years building on Google Cloud and are now ready to combine that depth with business thinking and team leadership, this is the role.

What Youll Own

Create reusable solution accelerators, reference architectures, and proof-of-concept frameworks on GCP that the sales team can demonstrate and the delivery team can deploy at scale.

Stay ahead of the GCP product roadmap identify new services, features, and capabilities that can be turned into differentiated offerings for JK Tech.

Package solutions with clear business value: ROI narratives, TCO comparisons, and outcome-based positioning that resonates with CXO buyers, not just technical evaluators.
