Cloud Architect

• Design and build, and maintain cloud architectures for scalable, robust AI/GenAI applications across platforms (web, mobile, desktop).
• Leverage cloud-native services to ensure optimal performance, availability, security, and cost efficiency.
• Monitor and optimize cloud infrastructure for latency, throughput, and cost efficiency, leveraging cloud-native monitoring and alerting tools.
• Design and implement load balancing, auto-scaling, and failover strategies to guarantee high availability across all deployed applications.
• Document reference architectures, technical roadmaps, and conduct design reviews with engineering and product teams.

Infrastructure as Code & Automation:

• Develop and maintain infrastructure as code (IaC) frameworks and automated workflows, making cloud deployment accessible to developers regardless of IaC expertise.
• Implement robust monitoring, security guardrails, and compliance checks to ensure infrastructure changes are safe, reliable, and aligned with production standards.

Security, Compliance, and Reliability:

• Champion secure cloud designs, ensuring compliance with data privacy, security, and regulatory requirements in coordination with our security team.
• Establish observability, monitoring and disaster recovery mechanisms for all AI/GenAI workloads.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 8+ years of experience architecting and delivering cloud-native applications, including at least 3 years specializing in AI/ML or GenAI workloads.
• Demonstrated experience with monitoring, optimizing, and troubleshooting cloud infrastructure for performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency using modern observability tools (e.g., CloudWatch, Prometheus, Datadog).
• Expertise in AWS cloud services (e.g., ECS, EKS, Lambda, SageMaker, S3, IAM, VPC, Cognito, Step Functions, CloudWatch)
• Proficiency in Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, OpenTofu) and modern DevOps practices (CI/CD, OPA, containerization with Docker/Kubernetes).
• AWS Certification (Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer etc..) a plus.
• Full stack experience a plus.
• Experience supporting global deployments of multi-platform applications (web, mobile, desktop) across geographies (CDN).
• Proven communication skills. Fluency in English a must.
• Passion for transforming organizations through large scale data
