Job Specifications

Overview

We are looking for a Senior Cloud Architect with a strong background in Java application development and AWS architecture to join our professional services team. This role is ideal for someone who can bridge the gap between enterprise software engineering and cloud infrastructure, with the ability to lead modernization efforts across a wide range of customer environments.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the architecture and deployment of cloud-native solutions using AWS services and Java-based applications.
Assess customer workloads and define migration paths from legacy to modern cloud architectures.
Build and optimize distributed systems, including microservices and containerized deployments.
Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation.
Design CI/CD pipelines, container strategies (ECS, EKS, Docker), and serverless integrations (Lambda, API Gateway).
Guide DevOps practices around security, observability, and performance.
Collaborate directly with engineering, product, and client teams to ensure solutions align with business needs.
Produce technical documentation including architecture diagrams, deployment guides, and operational runbooks.

What You Bring

5+ years of experience developing in Java, including Spring Boot or similar frameworks.
Deep hands-on experience with AWS services such as EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, VPC, Lambda, and EKS.
Familiarity with modern cloud design patterns and containerized application lifecycles.
Strong understanding of networking, IAM, logging, and monitoring in a cloud environment.
Experience in regulated environments (FedRAMP, HIPAA, PCI, etc.) is a plus.
Excellent communication skills in client-facing or consultative settings.
AWS certifications (e.g., Solutions Architect Professional or DevOps Engineer) preferred.
