  • DevOps & Automation:
    • Proven experience in DevOps practices, including continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
    • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Strong knowledge of IaC tools such as Terraform and Ansible, with the ability to design and implement automated deployment pipelines.
    • Ability to guide teams in transitioning from manual deployment processes to fully automated, pipeline-driven approaches.
  • Customer Engagement:
    • Strong customer-facing experience with the ability to engage with stakeholders, understand their requirements, and propose effective cloud solutions.
    • Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders clearly and effectively.
  • Architectural Skills:
    • Proven experience in designing cloud architectures that are secure, scalable, and cost-effective.
    • Ability to assess existing IT environments and recommend cloud solutions that align with business goals and technical requirements.
    • Familiarity with multi-cloud strategies and hybrid cloud environments.
  • Strategic Planning:
    • Ability to develop long-term cloud strategies that align with the organization's objectives and customer needs.
    • Experience in creating detailed architecture documentation and guiding implementation teams to ensure solutions are built according to design.
  • Communication:
    • Exceptional oral and written communication skills, with a focus on clarity, persuasion, and customer satisfaction.
    • Experience in leading technical discussions and presenting solutions to customers and senior management.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Customer Requirement Analysis:
    • Work directly with customers to gather and analyze their cloud requirements.
    • Translate business needs into technical designs that can be implemented by engineering teams.
  • Cloud Solution Design:
    • Design cloud architectures that meet customer requirements for performance, scalability, and security.
    • Provide recommendations on cloud services and technologies that best fit the customer's needs.
  • DevOps & Automation Implementation:
    • Lead the design and implementation of CI/CD pipelines, ensuring that all cloud deployments are automated and reproducible.
    • Guide the transition from manual deployment processes to automated, IaC-driven solutions using tools like Terraform and Ansible.
  • Collaboration & Leadership:
    • Collaborate with engineering teams to ensure that designs are implemented effectively and align with customer expectations.
    • Lead architecture review sessions and provide guidance to ensure that the solution meets both customer and organizational standards.
  • Documentation & Presentation:
    • Create detailed architecture diagrams, documentation, and presentations to communicate designs to both technical and non-technical audiences.
    • Present cloud solutions to customers, ensuring that they understand the benefits and trade-offs of the proposed architecture.
  • Continuous Improvement:
    • Stay up-to-date with the latest cloud technologies, zero trust networking, 5G, Starlink, DevOps practices, and DoD Cloud practices to provide innovative solutions.
    • Continuously evaluate and refine cloud architectures to ensure they meet evolving customer needs and industry standards.

Educational & Certification Requirements:

  • Certifications:
    • AWS Certified Solutions Architect: Highly desirable.
    • Other Cloud Certifications: Such as Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert or Google Cloud Certified - Professional Cloud Architect.
