Senior Cloud & Platform Solution Architect Lead the Future of Cloud & Platform Engineering We are seeking an experienced Senior Solution Architect to define and evolve enterprise cloud, infrastructure, DevSecOps, and platform engineering architecture across AWS and Azure.

This is a highly visible technical leadership role for an architect who combines deep hands-on cloud expertise with strong people leadership. You’ll establish technical strategy, build scalable platform standards, lead and develop engineers and architects, and influence technology decisions across the organization. Key Responsibilities

  • Define target-state cloud, infrastructure, and platform architecture across AWS and Azure.
  • Design secure, scalable, and resilient architectures spanning compute, networking, storage, identity, Kubernetes, and container platforms.
  • Establish architecture standards and reusable patterns for cloud landing zones, Infrastructure as Code, and platform services.
  • Architect and evolve CI/CD and DevSecOps capabilities using tools such as Azure DevOps, Harness, and GitLab.
  • Embed security into delivery pipelines through SAST, DAST, vulnerability management, policy-as-code, and compliance automation.
  • Partner with platform engineering teams to build self-service infrastructure, automation, and developer enablement capabilities.
  • Define enterprise observability and monitoring standards using platforms such as New Relic, Dynatrace, or Datadog.
  • Promote SRE principles, including SLIs/SLOs, capacity planning, performance management, and incident response.
  • Lead architecture reviews and ensure technology solutions align with enterprise standards and long-term strategy.
  • Build, mentor, and manage a team of architects and engineers, including hiring, performance management, and career development.
  • Communicate architecture strategy, technical trade-offs, and risk to engineering teams, business stakeholders, and executive leadership.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies, vendors, and platforms to support modernization and cloud transformation.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
  • 8+ years of experience in cloud architecture, infrastructure, or platform engineering.
  • 3+ years of experience leading and managing technical teams.
  • Deep hands-on experience designing and implementing enterprise solutions across AWS and Azure.
  • Strong cloud architecture expertise across compute, networking, storage, identity, security, and platform services.
  • Experience architecting CI/CD and DevSecOps pipelines using Azure DevOps, Harness, GitLab, or comparable technologies.
  • Strong understanding of secure SDLC and DevSecOps practices, including SAST, DAST, and vulnerability management.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code technologies such as Terraform, Bicep/ARM, or CloudFormation.
  • Strong experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and containerized environments.
  • Experience implementing enterprise observability using New Relic, Dynatrace, Datadog, or similar platforms.
  • Proven experience establishing architecture standards and influencing enterprise technology decisions.
  • Demonstrated people leadership, mentoring, and team development experience.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence both technical and executive stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

  • AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional.
  • Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert.
  • CISSP, Security+, or similar security certification.
  • Kubernetes certification such as CKA or CKAD.
  • Experience building internal developer platforms and self-service cloud capabilities.
  • Experience implementing SRE practices, SLIs, and SLOs.
  • Knowledge of cloud financial management and cost optimization strategies.
  • Experience managing technology vendors and evaluating enterprise platforms.
