GCP: Markt
GCP (Google Cloud Platform) is the market's third major cloud with a distinctly data-shaped profile: BigQuery, Dataflow, Vertex AI and GKE pull demand from analytics, data engineering and ML. We track 10 135 open positions listing GCP, 9 208 of them fresh. The main roles are DevOps, Data and Fullstack. GCP most often appears next to AWS, Azure and Python. 41% of the postings allow fully remote work. GKE is considered the reference managed Kubernetes, so GCP experience is welcomed even by infrastructure teams on other clouds. Below is measured GCP demand from public sources.

Timeline: postings and sources
How many GCP postings appeared each week since Aug 10, and from how many sources. The second line separates market growth from coverage growth: a jump in the week new sources were connected means we started seeing more, not that the market grew.

Week = posting first-seen date, all statuses. A posting belongs to the technology by its stack tag; the series starts on 10 Aug 2026 — earlier tags were assigned differently and are not comparable. Sources are distinct collection channels; their names are not published.

Remote postings, %
The share is among postings that state a format (remote, hybrid, office). Weeks with fewer than 10 such postings are left blank.

Postings in the country, %
Share among postings with a known country; the chart shows the five countries with the most postings over six months. Weeks with fewer than 20 postings with a known country are left blank. A rising share can mean a newly connected source in that country rather than market growth.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
Common questions about the GCP market — short answers from the slice.
How do GCP jobs differ from AWS and Azure?
By profile: GCP is asked for in data and ML (BigQuery, Dataflow, Vertex AI), AWS — in product backend and serverless, Azure — in the enterprise segment. GKE, meanwhile, is one of the best managed Kubernetes offerings, keeping infrastructure demand for GCP steady.
Which roles need GCP?
The slice shows demand from DevOps, Data, Fullstack and Backend roles. Data engineers need BigQuery and Dataflow, ML engineers — Vertex AI and GPU clusters, DevOps — GKE and Cloud Build, analysts — BigQuery and Looker.
What should I learn for GCP jobs?
For the data profile: SQL and BigQuery, then Dataflow/Composer and dbt. For infrastructure: GKE, Terraform, networking and IAM. Certifications (Professional Data Engineer, Cloud Architect) are a plus in postings, not a filter.
How big is the GCP market?
The current slice tracks 10 135 open GCP positions — fewer than AWS and Azure, but the data direction grows faster than average: BigQuery became the standard analytical warehouse in product companies.
