Our practice spans cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, managed services, DevOps, data engineering, and cybersecurity, underpinned by our Kavach360 security programme (ISO 27001, SOC 2, and DPDP Act alignment).\n## The role\nThe Hybrid Cloud Platform Architect designs and owns the foundational platform that enterprise workloads run on across on-premises, Azure, and a secondary public cloud. You define the landing zones, hybrid connectivity, identity, governance, and self-service tooling that let engineering teams deliver quickly and safely - and you set the standards for reliability, security, and cost that keep the platform healthy at scale. This is a hands-on architecture role: you build reference implementations and Infrastructure-as-Code, not just diagrams, and you mentor the engineers who extend the platform. Azure is the primary environment; you bring working depth in AWS or GCP to design and operate genuinely hybrid, multi-cloud solutions.\n## What you'll do\n**Platform foundation and landing zones**\n- Design and govern enterprise-scale Azure landing zones using the Cloud Adoption Framework and Well-Architected Framework: management-group hierarchy, subscription topology, guardrails, and policy-as-code (Azure Policy).\n- Establish the equivalent foundation in the secondary cloud (AWS Control Tower / Organizations or GCP organisation and folder structure) where workloads span providers.\n**Hybrid architecture and connectivity* *\n- Architect hybrid connectivity and network topology: hub-spoke / virtual WAN, ExpressRoute and VPN, DNS, and segmentation across data centre and cloud.\n- Extend cloud control planes to on-premises and edge using Azure Arc (and Azure Stack / VMware integration where relevant), enabling consistent governance across hybrid estate.\n** Identity, security, and governance**\n- Design identity and access with Microsoft Entra ID (federation, Conditional Access, PIM/PAM), least-privilege RBAC, Key Vault, and secrets management.\n- Embed security and data protection by design - encryption, network controls, and Defender for Cloud - and align the platform with DPDP, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 obligations.\n- Run architecture review and approval, guardrails, and the technical standards that ensure consistency and operational excellence.\n**Automation and platform engineering**\n- Build reusable Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform and/or Bicep) modules, CI/CD pipelines, and golden paths that give product teams safe, self-service provisioning.\n- Architect container and orchestration platforms (AKS, with EKS / GKE in the secondary cloud) and the surrounding supply-chain and policy controls.\n**Reliability, observability, and cost**\n- Define HA, DR, and backup architectures to agreed RTO/RPO targets, and design observability (Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and equivalents) for actionable platform health.\n- Lead FinOps practice for the platform: right-sizing, commitment-based discounts (Reserved Instances / Savings Plans / committed use), tagging, and cost visibility and accountability.\n**Leadership and consulting**\n- Act as technical authority across engagements, partnering with client architecture and infrastructure teams to shape platform strategy and roadmaps.\n- Mentor platform and cloud engineers, and contribute to presales, solution workshops, and effort estimation.\n##What you'll bring\n**Required* *\n- 10+ years in technology, with 5+ years architecting cloud or hybrid platforms.\n- Deep, hands-on Microsoft Azure expertise across networking, identity and security, compute, storage, and HA/DR - at Azure Solutions Architect Expert standard.\n- Proven design and ownership of Azure landing zones (CAF), governance with Azure Policy, and Entra ID-based identity and access.\n- Strong hybrid experience: ExpressRoute / hybrid networking, Azure Arc, and integration with on-premises or VMware environments.\n- Infrastructure-as-Code with Terraform and/or Bicep, plus CI/CD; container orchestration with Kubernetes (AKS).\n- Working knowledge of either AWS or GCP sufficient to architect and operate multi-cloud solutions.\n- Excellent client-facing communication and the ability to set standards and mentor engineers.\n**Preferred**\n- Certifications in the secondary cloud (AWS Solutions Architect, GCP Professional Cloud Architect).\n- Platform engineering / internal developer platform experience (golden paths, self-service, policy-as-code).\n- FinOps certification and experience operating cost governance at scale.\n- Observability and SRE practices; experience in a regulated or enterprise delivery environment.\n**Certifications (expected)**\n- Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert (required or to be achieved within an agreed timeframe)\n- AWS Certified Solutions Architect or Google Professional Cloud Architect (advantageous)\n## What success looks like\n- Within 90 days: a reference Azure landing zone and IaC baseline adopted on at least one engagement, with review standards in use by the team.\n- Within 6-12 months: a repeatable, self-service hybrid platform pattern in production across engagements, measurable cost optimization delivered, and a demonstrable uplift in the engineer's you mentor.\n## Why Minfy\nYou will own the platform foundations that enterprise workloads depend on, with the autonomy of a senior architect, the support of a strong practice, and a clear path to shape how we build hybrid cloud at scale.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5622,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Managed IT Services (MSP)","AI Consulting & Integration","Cloud Consulting & Migration","Data Engineering & Migration Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-29T21:18:52Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":15,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.522,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":149,"expected_fill_days":65,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","velocity","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-22T06:10:10Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":52830,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/minfy-technologies-cloud-solution-architect","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/minfy-technologies-cloud-solution-architect.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-22T07:24:46Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3001,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-23T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":59584},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=59584"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fminfy-technologies-cloud-solution-architect"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fminfy-technologies-cloud-solution-architect"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fminfy-technologies-cloud-solution-architect"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/minfy-technologies-cloud-solution-architect\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fminfy-technologies-cloud-solution-architect"}]}
