• Develop comprehensive architecture blueprints, diagrams, and documentation that clearly communicate the proposed solution to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Work closely with development teams to ensure adherence to cloud architecture best practices throughout the software development lifecycle.

• Assist in the evaluation and selection of cloud services, tools, and frameworks based on project requirements and cost-performance considerations.

• Implement and configure cloud services, including compute, storage, databases, networking, and security components.

• Ensure security and compliance by implementing appropriate cloud security controls and adhering to regulatory standards and industry best practices.

• Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure, microservices, containerization (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes), and serverless architectures.

• Proficiency in creating architecture diagrams, technical documentation, and deployment models.

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation), and automation tools.

• Solid understanding of cloud security principles, IAM, encryption, network security, and compliance standards (e.g., ISO 27001, GDPR).

• Excellent communication and client interaction skills; able to bridge the gap between business needs and technical solutions.
