The ideal candidate is a strong technologist with a generalist mindset-comfortable wearing multiple hats, adapting quickly, and delivering in a high-pressure environment.

Responsibilities:
  • Design, deploy, and maintain cloud infrastructure solutions on platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to design and implement cloud-native architectures, microservices, and serverless applications, leveraging containerization and orchestration technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Implement and maintain automated deployment pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC), and configuration management tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible) to streamline provisioning and management of cloud resources.
  • Monitor, optimize, and troubleshoot cloud infrastructure performance, security, and costs, utilizing monitoring tools and logging frameworks (e.g., CloudWatch, Grafana, Datadog etc).
  • Implement and enforce cloud security best practices, including identity and access management (IAM), data encryption, network security, and compliance with industry regulations (e.g., GDPR, SEC).
  • Design and implement disaster recovery (DR) and business continuity (BC) solutions for cloud-based systems, including backup and restore procedures, failover configurations, and multi-region deployments.
  • Evaluate new cloud technologies, services, and features, and make recommendations for adoption based on business requirements, cost-benefit analysis, and technical feasibility.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to document technical architectures, standards, and best practices for cloud computing, and ensure alignment with enterprise IT strategies and objectives.

Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
  • Proven experience (5-10 years) as a cloud engineer, solutions architect, or similar role, with hands-on experience designing, deploying, and managing cloud infrastructure in AWS and Azure.
  • Strong understanding of cloud computing concepts, architectures, and best practices, including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS) models.
  • Proficiency in scripting and automation using languages such as Python, PowerShell, or Bash, and experience with infrastructure as code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible.
  • Experience with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker) and container orchestration platforms (e.g., Kubernetes) in cloud environments.
  • Familiarity with DevOps practices, continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and related tools
  • Strong understanding of networking concepts, including virtual private clouds (VPCs), subnets, routing, load balancing.
  • Knowledge of cloud security best practices, identity and access management (IAM), encryption mechanisms, and regulatory compliance requirements in financial services (e.g., SEC, GDPR).
  • Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and troubleshooting skills, with a keen attention to detail and a proactive approach to addressing issues.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to interact effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders across the organization.
