Job Title: Senior Technical Architect (AWS Cloud)
We are seeking experienced Senior Technical Architects with expertise in AWS cloud architectures to join our team. You will be responsible for designing, implementing, and overseeing advanced cloud infrastructure solutions for mission-critical systems. Candidates should have at least 5 years of experience, including deep knowledge of security architecture on cloud platforms, and be capable of providing technical leadership and strategic direction in building scalable, secure, and resilient cloud-native systems based on AWS, Kubernetes, Kafka, microservices, Java, and event-driven design.
Key Responsibilities
* Cloud Architecture Design: Lead the design of cloud-based systems using AWS and modern architectural patterns such as microservices, event-driven architectures, and serverless computing to meet business needs.
* Cloud Security: Develop and implement security architectures ensuring data protection, regulatory compliance, and adherence to industry best practices (e.g., AWS IAM, encryption, VPC, security monitoring, auditing).
* Containerisation & Orchestration: Architect and oversee containerized environments using Kubernetes, ensuring high availability, scalability, and fault tolerance.
* Event-Driven Systems: Design event-driven systems using Kafka, managing messaging frameworks for real-time data processing across distributed microservices.
* Microservices Architecture: Design and oversee microservices-based systems, establishing best practices for modularity, scalability, and maintainability, focusing on Java-based backend services.
* Technical Leadership: Provide leadership and mentorship to architecture and development teams, guiding them through complex technical challenges.
* Security & Compliance: Ensure architectures comply with industry regulations (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA) and security policies, implementing security controls across infrastructure.
* CI/CD & Automation: Promote the development of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC), and automation for reliable cloud service delivery.
* Collaboration: Work closely with DevOps, engineering, product management, and stakeholders to align architectural strategies with technical and business goals.
* Performance & Cost Optimization: Drive performance tuning, cost management, and resource optimization to maximize efficiency and minimize cloud spend.
Skills, Knowledge, and Expertise
* Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
* Minimum of 5 years in designing and implementing large-scale, distributed cloud systems with a focus on AWS.
* Extensive experience with cloud security architecture, including AWS security best practices (IAM, network security, encryption).
* Deep expertise in containerization (Docker) and Kubernetes for production environments.
* Proven experience with event-driven architectures and queue systems like Kafka.
* Strong background in microservices architecture and Java backend systems.
* Understanding of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation), and automated deployment.
* Excellent communication and leadership skills for effective collaboration and mentorship.
* Experience with monitoring/logging tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack) and cloud cost optimization strategies.
Why Apply?
* Work on cutting-edge cloud technologies and large-scale projects.
* Opportunities for continuous learning, including cloud certifications.
* Collaborative and innovative work environment.
