Using a load balancer that requires oAuth to protect my backend application

I have a backend service, which I don't want to be expose, and also, just the employees that uses Gsuite oAuth should access.

Instead of exposing the backend and add the logic of oauth in it, I looked at the vouch-proxy project, which fits me very well (a proxy that redirects unauthenticated traffic to oauth login page and then, when a valid token is passed, it's redirect to the backend.

Before using this vouch proxy, do GCP has something built-in for it? Or another kind of setup that my backend service is not exposed?

Google Cloud provides the Identity-Aware Proxy (IAP) that would precisely fit your needs since it's integrating well with G Suite domain and can sit in front of your Load-Balancer.
