Job description
Architectural Sovereignty: Design and govern the enterprise-wide blueprints for hybrid-cloud and multi-cloud environments. Massive Migration Leadership: Lead the technical strategy for migrating thousands of applications from physical data centers to optimized cloud or colocation endpoints.

Program Orchestration: Act as the technical North Star for large-scale programs, ensuring disparate workstreams (security, networking, compute, and app dev) remain aligned. High-Stakes Stakeholder Management: Translate complex technical risks into business outcomes for C-suite executives while maintaining deep credibility with engineering teams.
