Cloud Solution Architect – AWS

Role Overview

• Design and lead secure, highly available cloud architectures primarily on AWS
• Architect identity and access management solutions, including federated authentication, multi-factor authentication, and customer identity and access management (CIAM)
• Drive best practices in designing event-driven, serverless applications with AWS Lambda, API Gateway, EventBridge, SQS and other AWS Services
• Design scalable data engineering platforms for ingestion, normalization, enrichment, and API-driven data integration leveraging AWS services such as RDS, DynamoDB, S3, Glue, Athena and ETL frameworks
• Plan and govern integration strategies for cloud contact center solutions like Amazon Connect with backend systems
• Enforce cloud security measures focusing on encryption, audit logging, GDPR/CCPA/FedRAMP compliance, and the principle of least privilege via IAM
• Define and implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform and AWS CloudFormation to automate provisioning and configuration
• Lead development and maintenance of reusable IaC modules and best practices for scalability, security, and compliance
• Collaborate with DevOps teams to integrate IaC pipelines into CI/CD workflows for repeatable and auditable deployments
• Review and enforce standards related to IaC code quality, security policies, and version control
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate business needs into secure, scalable cloud and data solutions
• Evaluate emerging AWS cloud technologies to improve architecture and operational efficiency
• Produce architecture documentation including design decisions, tradeoffs, and security controls
• Communicate complex technical concepts effectively to technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Strong skills in serverless, event-driven architecture with AWS Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, and EventBridge
• Experience building and architecting data engineering platforms based on relational (PostgreSQL/Aurora RDS), NoSQL (DynamoDB), caching (ElastiCache/Redis), and ETL pipelines
• Knowledge of cloud contact center solutions, ideally Amazon Connect, including integration strategies
• Expertise in cloud security and compliance frameworks, encryption, data governance, and auditability
• Hands-on experience with Terraform and CloudFormation for Infrastructure as Code at scale
• Proven ability to implement and govern CI/CD pipelines involving IaC deployments and automated testing
