Role Description:

We're seeking a highly motivated and experienced Senior AWS Architect to lead the technical onboarding of ISVs into our FedRAMP-authorized environment. You'll be the primary technical liaison, bridging the gap between ISV engineering teams and our platform, security, and operations teams. Your expertise in AWS and FedRAMP will be crucial in ensuring seamless and secure integrations.

At CGC, you will engage in these key activities:
  • ISV Onboarding Champion:
    • Lead the end-to-end technical onboarding process for ISVs.
    • Provide expert guidance on AWS and CGC best practices.
    • Collaborate closely with ISVs to refactor Infrastructure as Code (IaC), transition to new services, and prepare for FedRAMP authorization.
    • Serve as the primary technical point of contact for ISV engineering teams.
  • Documentation & Compliance:
    • Create and maintain critical ISV-related documentation, including:
      • Security System Plan (SSP) addenda
      • Onboarding guides and kick-off materials
      • Boundary diagrams and control alignment guidelines
  • Pre-Sales Collaboration:
    • Partner with the sales team to evaluate potential ISV candidates during the pre-sales stage.
We're looking for someone who has:
  • Technical Expertise: 5+ years of hands-on, extremely deep production experience architecting and deploying scalable, secure and resilient solutions on AWS and AWS GovCloud. Key aspects of this experience include:
    1. Deep understanding of DevOps principles and practices, including automation, infrastructure as code, continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD)
    2. Writing and debugging Terraform IaC
    3. Working with FIPS crypto enabled on the hosts and AWS endpoints
    4. Applying STIG baselines and debugging the issues they create
    5. Deploying workloads that leverage VMs, K8S and serverless infrastructure
    6. Rigorously documenting everything
  • Compliance Expertise: 3 or more years of hands-on technical experience must be in a highly-regulated compliance environment. FedRAMP or StateRAMP is preferred, but other frameworks such as HITRUST are also relevant.
  • Educational Background: Bachelor's degree in a relevant field; advanced degrees are a plus.
  • Project Management Proficiency: Expertise in Agile and other project management methodologies. Familiarity with tools such as Jira, Excel, and Google Suite is essential.
  • Exceptional Communication: Outstanding verbal and written communication skills with the ability to distill complex technical concepts into accessible insights for diverse stakeholders.
  • Problem-Solving Savvy: Analytical mindset with strong problem-solving abilities to navigate challenges and deliver effective solutions.
Some additional details on the tech expertise required:
  • In-depth knowledge of AWS cloud services, including compute (EC2, Lambda), storage (S3, EBS, Glacier), networking (VPC, Security Groups, Route 53), and security (IAM, AWS Security Hub, AWS WAF).
  • Experience with AWS CloudFormation and Terraform for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) deployments.
  • Experience with AWS CodePipeline, CodeDeploy, and CodeBuild for CI/CD pipelines and deployments.
  • Understanding of Amazon CloudWatch for logging, monitoring, and application health insights.
  • Kubernetes & Containerization:
  • Solid understanding of Kubernetes concepts and architecture, including deployments, services, pods, and namespaces.
  • Experience with container orchestration tools like Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).
  • Familiarity with container image management tools like Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) or Docker Hub.
  • Support troubleshooting and debugging containerized applications
  • Expert with AWS well architected pattern.
Citizenship:
  • U.S. Citizenship required.
