Job title: Infrastructure Architect (Perm role, Cloud Infra, Network Infra, up to $10,000, Central area)

We are seeking a highly experienced Infrastructure Architect with a strong and balanced technical background across network infrastructure, server & storage systems, multi cloud environments, and DevOps engineering.

This role requires a minimum of 10+ years of overall IT infrastructure experience, including 5+ years in cloud architecture and DevOps, with proven leadership in designing, building, and governing complex hybrid and cloud-native ecosystems.

Responsibilities:

Cloud & Infrastructure Architecture

• Design secure, scalable, and highly available multi cloud architectures (AWS required; Azure/GCP an advantage).
• Define and govern architecture standards, frameworks, and best practices across cloud, network, compute, storage, and security domains.
• Lead cloud adoption, migration, modernization, and hybrid integration initiatives.
• Architect containerized and serverless workloads (Docker, Kubernetes/EKS, Lambda, Step Functions).

Network Infrastructure

• Manage enterprise storage architectures (SAN/NAS, backup, archival, object storage).
• Oversee performance optimization, capacity planning, and system hardening.

DevOps & Automation

• Lead the design and implementation of CI/CD pipelines (GitLab preferred, GitHub/Azure DevOps as plus).
• Champion automation using IaC (Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible).
• Implement SRE/DevOps practices: observability, monitoring, incident response, and reliability engineering.
• Ensure automated provisioning, configuration, and policy enforcement across environments.

Security & Governance

• Implement cloud and infrastructure security controls: IAM, KMS, SIEM/monitoring, security baselines, and compliance frameworks.
• Collaborate with security teams to drive zero-trust, identity governance, and audit readiness.

Leadership & Collaboration

• Act as the technical escalation point for complex design, performance, or production issues.
• Mentor infrastructure, cloud, DevOps, and operations engineers.
• Work closely with application, security, and network teams to deliver integrated, end-to-end solutions.
• Provide architectural guidance, documentation, and executive-level presentation support.

Required Skills & Experience:

Technical Competencies

• Cloud Platforms: Strong expertise in AWS; exposure to Azure/GCP ideal.

• Networking: VPC, routing, load balancing, firewalls, VPN, DNS, network security.

• Compute/Storage: VMware/virtualization, enterprise storage, backup/recovery, OS hardening.
