You Are:

We are seeking a highly skilled Apigee specialist with deep experience in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to lead the end-to-end setup of Apigee (Apigee X or Hybrid) for our enterprise. This role requires setting up Apigee from the ground up, integrating it with Okta for enterprise authentication, ensuring secure communication with AWS-hosted backend services, and executing a comprehensive migration from our current on-premises Apigee environment.

 

The opportunity:

·       Build and configure foundational GCP infrastructure (VPCs, subnets, peering, firewall rules, IAM, Cloud NAT, etc.) to support Apigee setup.

·       Integrate Apigee with Okta for identity and access management using OAuth2.0, OIDC, or SAML.

·       Enable secure and performant communication between Apigee and AWS-hosted services via private connectivity, VPN, or other secure channels.

·       Create and configure API proxies, shared flows, target endpoints, and policies for security (e.g., JWT validation, API key verification, threat protection).

·       Plan and execute migration of APIs, policies, and configurations from on-premises Apigee to Apigee in GCP.

·       Provide detailed documentation, architectural diagrams, and knowledge transfer to internal teams.

·       Collaborate closely with DevOps, Security, and Backend API teams.

 

 

This position description identifies the responsibilities and tasks typically associated with the performance of the position. Other relevant essential functions may be required.

 

What you need:

·       Proven experience with Okta integration (SAML/OIDC) for secure API authentication.

·       Experience with migrating Apigee from on-prem to cloud would be good to have.

·       Proficiency with API security best practices, rate limiting, caching, quotas, and analytics.

·       Strong scripting/automation skills (Bash, Python, Terraform, etc.).
