Key responsibilities
- Own the cloud foundation — design and maintain the account structure, organizational hierarchy, and baseline configuration that give the platform a secure, governed, and scalable base. Make it straightforward to spin up new environments consistently and safely. • Design and own the network architecture — the topology connecting services, clients, and partner environments. Ensure the right isolation boundaries between tenants, private connectivity where required, and a design that supports multi-region and multi-cloud requirements without becoming a bottleneck. • Own cloud-level identity and access — how services authenticate to cloud resources, how teams get exactly the access they need and no more, and how enterprise clients federate their identity into the platform securely. • Design and validate the multi-region and resilience strategy — deployment topology, failover behaviour, and recovery procedures. RTO and RPO targets should be tested commitments, not aspirations. • Own data residency enforcement at the infrastructure layer — make it provable and auditable that a client's data stays within their agreed regions through controls built into the infrastructure, not applied after the fact. • Build and own the bring-your-own-cloud deployment pattern — a repeatable, documented process for deploying the platform inside an enterprise client's own cloud account without forking infrastructure code. • Own the cloud-layer security posture — threat detection, configuration compliance, and the audit trail infrastructure at the cloud level. Ensure security controls are built into the foundation, not bolted on.
Required qualifications
- 5+ years of cloud engineering experience, with production depth on at least one major cloud (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and working competence on a second. • Multi-account or multi-subscription architecture design at production scale — organizational structures, account vending, landing zones, and baseline guardrails. • Network design at scale — VPC / VNet topology, peering, transit gateways, PrivateLink / Private Endpoints, Direct Connect or ExpressRoute, DNS, and certificate management. • Cloud-level IAM — role and policy design, cross-account access, federated identity, and leastprivilege enforcement patterns. • Multi-region deployment experience — has built and operated a system with documented RTO / RPO targets and tested disaster recovery runbooks. • Infrastructure as code at production scale (Terraform or Pulumi) — multi-account and multienvironment, with safe promotion and rollback patterns. • Cloud-native security tooling — hands-on with threat detection, configuration compliance, and audit logging services on at least one major cloud (GuardDuty / Security Hub / CloudTrail on AWS; Defender for Cloud on Azure; Security Command Center on GCP; or comparable).
