Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced Solution Architect to design and deliver enterprise-scale, cloud-native solutions with a strong focus on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), enterprise integration, API architecture, microservices, security, data architecture, and cloud resiliency. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience translating business and technical requirements into scalable, secure, highly available solutions and providing architectural leadership across complex enterprise environments.

Key Responsibilities
• Design and deliver enterprise-scale cloud solutions using GCP and cloud-native architectural patterns.
• Architect and implement solutions leveraging GKE, Cloud Run, Apigee, Pub/Sub, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage, Cloud Monitoring, and IAM.
• Design enterprise integration architectures involving APIs, event-driven systems, messaging platforms, file-based integrations, and hybrid cloud environments.
• Define and implement enterprise API management strategies using platforms such as Apigee, Kong, MuleSoft, or Azure API Management.
• Architect and implement microservices-based solutions using Kubernetes, containerization technologies, and service orchestration frameworks.
• Design secure multi-tenant platforms incorporating RBAC, IAM, network segmentation, encryption, and compliance controls.
• Apply security architectures and standards including OAuth, OIDC, JWT, Zero Trust Architecture, secret management, and Key Management Services (KMS).
• Design and implement event-driven architectures using Kafka, Google Pub/Sub, Eventarc, and similar messaging technologies.
• Design enterprise data architectures, canonical data models, metadata-driven frameworks, and data governance solutions.
• Architect solutions using enterprise data platforms such as Cloud SQL, PostgreSQL, Spanner, BigQuery, and Snowflake.
• Design and integrate enterprise document processing, workflow orchestration, correspondence management, print vendor integrations, and document generation platforms.
• Implement workflow orchestration and automation solutions using Cloud Workflows, Airflow, Composer, Camunda, or similar technologies.
• Establish monitoring, observability, logging, audit frameworks, and operational support solutions.
• Drive DevSecOps practices, CI/CD automation, Infrastructure as Code, Terraform, GitOps, and cloud security best practices.
• Design and implement Disaster Recovery (DR), Business Continuity (BC), High Availability (HA), and cloud resiliency solutions.
• Provide architectural guidance and technical leadership across development, engineering, security, infrastructure, and business teams.
• Evaluate technology options, establish architectural standards and patterns, and ensure solutions align with enterprise requirements.
• Develop and maintain architecture documentation, technical specifications, integration designs, and solution roadmaps.
• Ensure solutions meet scalability, performance, security, compliance, availability, and maintainability requirements.

Required Qualifications
• 10-15+ years of overall experience in software engineering, solution architecture, cloud platforms, enterprise integration, or related technology roles.
• 5-8+ years of hands-on cloud architecture experience designing and delivering enterprise-scale solutions on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• 5-8+ years of experience designing and implementing cloud-native applications using GKE, Cloud Run, Apigee, Pub/Sub, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage, Cloud Monitoring, and IAM.
• 5-7+ years of experience designing enterprise integration architectures involving APIs, event-driven systems, messaging platforms, file-based integrations, and hybrid cloud environments.
• 4-6+ years of experience with enterprise API management platforms such as Apigee, Kong, MuleSoft, or Azure API Management.
• 4-6+ years of experience architecting and implementing microservices-based solutions using Kubernetes, containerization technologies, and service orchestration frameworks.
• 4-6+ years of experience designing secure multi-tenant platforms incorporating RBAC, IAM, network segmentation, encryption, and compliance controls.
• 2-4+ years of experience with OAuth, OIDC, JWT, Zero Trust Architecture, secret management, and Key Management Services (KMS).
• 3-5+ years of experience implementing event-driven architectures using Kafka, Google Pub/Sub, Eventarc, or similar messaging technologies.
• 3-5+ years of experience designing enterprise data architectures, canonical data models, metadata-driven frameworks, and data governance solutions.
• 3-5+ years of experience with Cloud SQL (PostgreSQL), Spanner, BigQuery, Snowflake, or equivalent enterprise data platforms.
• 3-5+ years of experience with enterprise document processing, workflow orchestration, correspondence management, print vendor integrations, and document generation platforms.
• 2-3+ years of experience implementing workflow orchestration and automation frameworks such as Cloud Workflows, Airflow, Composer, or Camunda.
• 3-5+ years of experience implementing monitoring, observability, logging, audit frameworks, and operational support solutions.
• 2-4+ years of experience with DevSecOps practices, CI/CD automation, Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, GitOps, and cloud security best practices.
• 2-4+ years of experience designing Disaster Recovery, Business Continuity, High Availability, and cloud resiliency solutions.
• Strong architecture, analytical, problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

Preferred Qualifications
• Exposure to AWS and/or Azure cloud platforms.
• Experience working across multi-cloud or hybrid cloud environments.
• Experience establishing enterprise architecture standards, reusable patterns, and governance frameworks.
• Strong understanding of cloud security, compliance, and operational best practices.
