  • Provide expertise and support for migrations from on-premises infrastructure to AWS, ensuring data integrity, minimal downtime, high availability, and optimized cloud spend.
  • Provide guidance on best practices for cloud application design, deployment, and optimization, including cost governance, tagging strategies, and use of Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
  • Engage with customers to gather requirements, analyze application architectures, and provide cost-conscious cloud migration and modernization strategies, collaborating closely with engineering teams for seamless deployments.
  • Configure and implement CI/CD pipelines to automate builds, testing, and deployment in AWS, ensuring efficient resource usage and minimized operational costs.
  • Continuously monitor, analyze, and optimize cloud environments for cost, performance, and scalability, leveraging AWS cost management tools (e.g., Cost Explorer, Budgets).
  • Stay updated on emerging cloud technologies, cost optimization techniques, and industry trends to enhance service offerings.
  • Lead and mentor team members in implementing cost-efficient cloud solutions, ensuring adherence to architectural and financial governance standards.
Review security scans, accessibility audits, and performance testing to ensure compliance with cybersecurity requirements while maintaining cost-effective remediation strategies.

Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
  • 10+ years of experience in cloud architecture, with a strong focus on AWS services and cost optimization strategies.
  • Ability to obtain a Public Trust security clearance - US Citizenship for Eligibility.
  • Proven experience in designing and implementing cost-efficient cloud-native applications.
  • Strong understanding of application migration strategies, including cost modeling and optimization approaches.
  • Excellent knowledge of AWS services (S3, EMR, Glue, Lambda, AWS Step Functions, Athena, Redshift, SageMaker, QuickSight) and cost optimization best practices.
  • Experience with containers (Docker, Kubernetes) and serverless architectures, with an emphasis on efficient resource utilization.
  • Strong skills leveraging IaC to develop automated deployment and orchestration solutions using Terraform, CloudFormation, and scripting tools, with a focus on cost control and repeatability.
  • Experience with AWS cost management and monitoring tools (e.g., Cost Explorer, AWS Budgets, Trusted Advisor) is highly desirable.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills to engage effectively with customers and teams, including the ability to articulate cost-performance trade-offs.
  • AWS Certification (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect) is highly preferred.
