You will lead discovery and design, facilitatedifficult technical and delivery discussions, coordinate engineers and stakeholders, and remain directly involved in implementation and troubleshooting whenever needed.\nYou should be comfortable moving from a client workshop or architecture discussion to reviewing -or creating -a Terraform module, Helm chart, CI/CD pipelineor Kubernetes configuration.\nYou will often work in environments where requirements, ownership, dependenciesand timelines are not fully clear. An important part of your role will be to bring structure to ambiguity, challenge assumptions, obtain missing decisions and inputs, remove blockers, and maintaindelivery momentum.\nYour keyresponsibilities\nAct as the technical lead and trusted advisor for client engagements, leading discovery across cloud infrastructure, applications, data, integrations, security, observabilityand operations. \nTurn ambiguous requirements into architecture decisions, delivery scope, phased plans, estimates, dependencies, risksand acceptance criteria. \nLead difficult client discussions, challenge assumptions, secure the decisions, access and input requiredfrom client teams, and maintaindelivery momentum despite uncertainty or delays. \nCoordinate engineers, client teamsand subject matter experts across parallel workstreams; translate architecture into implementable work, review technical deliverablesand remove blockers. \nDesign resilient AWS and Disaster Recovery architectures covering high availability, cross-region or cross-account recovery, backup and restore, replication, failover, failbackand RTO/RPO trade-offs. \nDefine Terraform and Infrastructure as Code foundations and governance, including repositories, reusable modules, state management, multi-environment configuration, CI/CD, drift detectionand safe brownfield adoption. \nDesign cloud-native API Management platforms based on Gravitee, Kubernetes and Helm, including topology, scaling, networking, security, storage, observabilityand upgrade strategies. \nDefine controlled Git-based delivery workflows for infrastructure, platform components, API definitionsand API Management configuration. \nRemain hands-on by creating or reviewing Terraform code, Helm charts, Kubernetes resources and pipelines, building proof-of-concepts and troubleshooting complex cross-layer issues. \nLead Disaster Recovery exercises, restore and failover tests, and platform readiness reviews; evaluate actual results, RTO/RPO deviations and required improvements. \nPrepare architecture documentation, ADRs, technical standards, runbooksand test reports, and leadtechnical handover and client enablement, including occasional support at client sites.\nWe need you to have\nExtensive experience as a Cloud, DevOpsor Platform Architect, or as a Lead Engineer in production environments, combined with current hands-on technical capability. \nProven customer-facing consulting or Professional Services experience, including independently leading discovery, architectureand post-sales technical delivery. \nStrong communicationand stakeholder management skills, including the ability to lead difficult discussions, challenge assumptionsand explain technical trade-offs. \nProven ownership, technical leadership and coordination skills in multi-team or multi-client environments with incomplete information, changing prioritiesand external dependencies. \nDeep hands-on knowledge of AWS architecture and production infrastructure, including networking, IAM, KMS, secrets management, resilienceand operational security.\nStrong Terraform and Infrastructure as Code expertise, including reusable modules, state management, multi-environment design, imports, state migrations, CI/CDand brownfield adoption. \nPractical experience designing and validatinghigh availability and Disaster Recovery for stateful workloads, including backup and restore, replication, failover, failbackand RTO/RPO. \nStrong production experience with Kubernetes and Helm, including networking, ingress, RBAC, secrets, storage, scaling, upgradesand troubleshooting. \nGood understanding of API Gateways, API Management platforms and integration architectures; hands-on Graviteeexperience would be a strong advantage.
