Focus areas include network connectivity, multi-region architecture, service networking, infrastructure automation, and cloud modernization initiatives. Responsibilities:

• Design and manage enterprise-scale AWS networking architectures.
• Build secure hybrid connectivity between AWS and on-premises environments.
• Implement cross-VPC and service-to-service networking architectures.
• Troubleshoot network performance, latency, and connectivity issues.
• Develop reusable AWS CDK infrastructure components and deployment patterns.
• Establish multi-region networking and resiliency architectures.
• Create architecture documentation, ADRs, and implementation guidance.
• Support application teams during migration and modernization initiatives.

• AWS networking subject matter expertise (Level 300-400).
• Enterprise-scale AWS network architecture experience.
• Deep understanding of Amazon VPC, DNS, network monitoring, and connectivity troubleshooting.
• Experience connecting on-premises environments to AWS.
