• DevOps and DevSecOps: Define CI/CD pipelines, branching strategies with Git, and package, image and container registries. Embed security practices and automated testing into the delivery flow.


• Observability and reliability: Set standards for monitoring, logging and alerting. Define SLOs, capacity plans and disaster recovery strategies.


• Cost management: Estimate infrastructure costs during design and monitor them in production, proposing optimizations as usage grows.


• Integrations: Design APIs and integrations with external systems such as CRMs, ERPs and partner platforms, ensuring interoperability and secure data exchange.


• Technical leadership: Guide and mentor engineers, review designs and code, and promote knowledge sharing across teams.


• Risk mitigation: Identify technical risks early, propose mitigation plans and alternative solutions.


• Documentation: Produce and maintain architecture diagrams, decision records and implementation guidelines, and explain them clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.

Requirements:

• Solid knowledge of architecture patterns for distributed systems, microservices and cloud-native solutions.


• Hands‑on experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP or Azure).


• Experience with networking design: firewalls, routing, VPNs and load balancing.
