Job Title: Amazon Certified Cloud Solutions Architect
Focus: AWS | Containerization | Cloud-Native & POCs
Location: Remote (US-based preferred)
Employment Type: Full-time / Contract / Consulting (flexible)


About the Role

We are looking for an Amazon Certified Cloud Solutions Architect with deep, hands-on experience in containerization technologies to design, implement, and scale modern cloud-native solutions on AWS.

This role is ideal for architects who enjoy building and experimenting, delivering proofs of concept (POCs), and translating ideas into scalable, production-ready architectures. You will work across a variety of environments, including innovation initiatives, startup customers, and cloud modernization programs.


Key Responsibilities

  • Architect and deploy cloud-native solutions on AWS
  • Design and implement containerized workloads using:
    • Docker
    • Kubernetes (Amazon EKS)
    • Amazon ECS / AWS Fargate
  • Build and deliver POCs, pilots, and MVPs with rapid turnaround
  • Design microservices-based architectures
  • Implement CI/CD pipelines for containerized applications
  • Collaborate with engineering, DevOps, and product teams
  • Ensure solutions meet security, scalability, and performance best practices
  • Document architectures, patterns, and operational guidelines
  • Advise customers on cloud strategy, cost optimization, and best practices

Required Qualifications

  • AWS Certified Solutions Architect (Associate or Professional)
  • 5+ years of experience in cloud architecture or advanced cloud engineering
  • Strong hands-on experience with containerization and orchestration
  • Proven experience deploying workloads on AWS
  • Solid understanding of networking, IAM, security, and monitoring in AWS
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation)
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills

Preferred / Nice-to-Have Skills

  • Experience with Amazon EKS in production environments
  • Knowledge of service meshes, observability, and logging stacks
  • Experience supporting startup or innovation teams
  • Exposure to AI/ML or GenAI workloads running in containers
  • Familiarity with GitOps and modern DevOps practices

Why Join Us

  • Work on modern, cloud-native architectures
  • High-impact, hands-on role (not just diagrams)
  • Exposure to diverse projects across industries
  • Opportunity to influence early technical decisions
  • Flexible engagement models and strong growth opportunities

Who Should Apply

This role is ideal for:

  • AWS Solutions Architects passionate about containers and microservices
  • Cloud engineers ready to step into an architecture-focused role
  • Architects who enjoy POCs, innovation, and fast execution
  • Professionals looking to work across multiple cloud initiatives
