• Delivery: Propose, scope, design and implement various cloud architectural solutions, ready to be used in different initiatives for private, public and hybrid cloud models, including IaaS, PaaS, and other cloud services.

Ensure that agreed standards and working practices are followed, highlight any non-conformance with agreed standards and working practices with the head of architecture and promote an environment that encourages collaboration, team working and innovation both within the Architecture Team and across IT and other teams. Decide which security standards should be applied, depending on the users’ location, the type of data being managed and the regulatory conditions. Be aligned with the security team to ensure security compliance. Document, evolve and evangelize multiple areas through the creation of common guidelines.
• Innovation: Keep up to date with new trends, technologies, solutions and patterns and propose new components, when needed.

Engage in concept discussions, proposed technology solutions, to meet business objectives. Engage with senior leadership and project stakeholders to articulate opportunities, costs, and risks associated with decisions made around the platform architecture and implementation. Provide expert guidance to delivery teams for complex challenges or business-critical systems, acting as an internal consultant. Share your take-aways with others, communicating fluently with others to facilitate the comprehension and adoption of best practices and enterprise artifacts.
