We are seeking a highly experienced Infrastructure Architect with deep DevOps expertise to lead the cloud infrastructure planning and deployment for a global o9 supply chain platform rollout. The architect will serve as a strategic liaison between the client’s IT organization and o9’s DevOps team, ensuring robust, scalable, and future-proof infrastructure across cloud environments (Azure/AWS).

This is a critical leadership role responsible for envisioning, planning, and implementing the infrastructure required for a multi-region, high-performance deployment involving data lakes, Kubernetes clusters, and CI/CD pipelines.

Key Responsibilities

• Design cloud-native architecture for o9 platform rollout, aligned with current and future business scalability needs.
  
• Size and allocate compute, storage, and networking resources across Azure and/or AWS environments.
  
• Plan for elasticity, availability, cost-efficiency, and disaster recovery.
  
• DevOps Integration & Implementation
  
• Collaborate closely with o9’s DevOps team to deploy and manage Kubernetes clusters using Karpenter for cost-efficient auto scaling.
  
• Oversee Git-based CI/CD workflows for infrastructure provisioning and platform deployment.
  
• Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting frameworks aligned with SRE best practices.
  
• Stakeholder Collaboration
  
• Act as a bridge between the client’s enterprise IT team and o9’s DevOps team, aligning platform requirements, security policies, and deployment timelines.
  
• Provide guidance on data storage strategies using DataLake/DeltaLake architectures in a supply chain analytics context.
  
• Scalability & Performance Management
  
• Ensure infrastructure supports high availability, low latency, and high throughput as per supply chain operations needs.
  
• Anticipate future growth and design cloud architecture that can scale horizontally and vertically as needed.
