- Architect for the Future: Review and optimize system architectures for performance, availability, and cost-efficiency. You will design Cloud Landing Zones and integrate DevOps best practices.
- Strategic Communication: Author position papers and deliver high-impact presentations to technical teams and senior executives.
- Vendor & Project Oversight: Assist in SOW negotiations and manage external partners to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and without scope creep.
Who You Are
- A Seasoned Veteran: You have 15+ years of total IT experience, with at least 10 years in Infrastructure and 5+ years specifically in Architecture & Design.
- Cloud Expert: Deep technical expertise in Azure and AliCloud is a must, specifically within large enterprise or FSI/Banking environments.
