Working within established enterprise architecture principles and cloud strategy, this role translates architectural direction into practical implementation patterns, engineering standards, reference architectures, and reusable platform capabilities. The Senior Cloud Architect partners closely with Enterprise Architecture, Domain Architecture, Platform Engineering, Platform Operations, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), Security, Delivery teams, and technology stakeholders to modernize cloud platforms, improve operational maturity, establish automation, and ensure consistent implementation of cloud engineering standards across the enterprise. Unlike strategic architecture leadership roles, this position focuses on operationalizing enterprise architecture through hands-on technical leadership, engineering collaboration, platform modernization, and implementation guidance while continuously improving reliability, scalability, security, automation, and operational excellence across assigned cloud platform domains., * Cloud Platform Architecture + Design secure, scalable, resilient, and highly available cloud platform architectures that align with enterprise architecture principles, security standards, and operational objectives. + Translate enterprise architecture strategies into practical solution designs, reference architectures, reusable implementation patterns, and engineering standards. + Develop technical architectures that support cloud platform modernization, operational excellence, and long-term maintainability. + Participate in architecture reviews and provide technical guidance to ensure proposed solutions align with established architectural standards * Platform Engineering & Modernization + Partner with engineering teams to modernize cloud platform capabilities and improve operational maturity across assigned platform domains. + Design reusable cloud platform services, implementation patterns, and engineering frameworks that accelerate delivery while reducing operational complexity. + Evaluate cloud platform services, technologies, and engineering approaches to improve scalability, resiliency, security, automation, and cost optimization * Automation & DevSecOps + Design and promote Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Configuration as Code, Pipeline as Code, and Policy as Code practices across cloud platforms. + Establish reusable deployment templates, automation frameworks, and CI/CD implementation standards that improve engineering consistency and delivery quality. * Security, Governance & Operational Excellence + Ensure cloud platform implementations align with enterprise governance, security, regulatory, compliance, and operational standards. + Incorporate identity, networking, resiliency, disaster recovery, observability, monitoring, logging, and operational readiness into cloud platform designs. + Identify implementation risks and recommend mitigation strategies that improve platform reliability, security, and operational supportability. * Engineering Leadership + Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance throughout solution design, implementation, deployment, and operational support activities. + Mentor engineers and technical teams on cloud architecture patterns, platform engineering practices, automation, and cloud-native design principles. + Partner with technical leaders to solve complex platform challenges and improve engineering effectiveness. * Cross-Functional Collaboration + Partner with Enterprise Architecture, Domain Architecture, Platform Engineering, Platform Operations, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), Security, and Delivery teams to ensure successful implementation of enterprise cloud platforms. + Contribute to technology evaluations, proof-of-concept initiatives, architecture reviews, and platform improvement efforts. + Document architectural decisions, implementation patterns, technical standards, and operational guidance for engineering teams. + Participate in project planning activities by providing architectural guidance, technical estimates, implementation recommendations, and risk assessments., Job Scope: Plays a key role in area by generating insights and ideas on policies, processes, procedures, and efficiency; contributes ideas to strategic and operational plans to ensure alignment. Complexity: Problems encountered often involve multiple areas/units, or programs; problems are often complex, broad in scope and implications, and are often unprecedented with no clear resolution. Impact: Decisions and actions have a major impact on the outcomes of the department, projects, and programs; Has a direct and significant impact on the business and/or operations of major segments of the organization. Interaction/Supervision: Works under broad direction with considerable latitude for independent actions; guided by professional standards, desired outcomes and unit/project/program specifications.
