Job description

We are an independent, senior-level multi-cloud services company helping enterprises and growing tech driven businesses build scalable cloud foundations for long-term growth. We work at the point where strategy meets execution – turning cloud, platform engineering and Infrastructure as Code into real business leverage, not slideware.

We don’t treat digital transformation as a buzzword. For us it’s day-to-day engineering work: designing resilient architectures, automating infrastructure with Terraform and policy-as-code, reducing operational risk, and enabling teams to move faster without losing control. We actively help our clients modernize how they build, deploy and operate technology - especially where complexity, scale and regulatory pressure collide.

Our approach is simple and demanding at the same time: we look at the client’s challenges from their perspective, build partnerships based on mutual value, and focus on measurable outcomes - efficiency, predictability, cost awareness and long‑term maintainability of platforms.

Semantive is a 40+ people team of highly senior engineers and consultants. No junior factory, no body‑leasing mindset. We specialize in cloud platforms, DevOps, IaC and data‑driven systems, working closely with our clients on complex transformation initiatives. We value long‑term relationships, ownership and transparency, and we give our people real influence on how the company, our services and our technical direction evolve.

Our mission is to support customers at various stages of their digital transformation, from data centers infrastructure automation, initial migration and cloud‑native modernization to building platforms and scaling Infrastructure as Code processes for multiple development teams.

We are seeking an experienced Senior Cloud Architect eager to join us on this mission.

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Design secure, scalable and reliable cloud architectures for enterprise environments as an individual contributor
• Assess existing on‑prem and cloud platforms and define target‑state architecture.
• Build and execute cloud migration and modernization roadmaps, from discovery to production rollout.
• Lead cloud‑native modernization initiatives, including Spacelift adoption, from a technical perspective
• Act as a senior technical advisor for customers across Cloud, DevOps and SRE domains
• Work directly with business and technical stakeholders, translating requirements into concrete architectural solutions
• Take end‑to‑end ownership of assigned architectural and technical areas
• Design, deploy and configure Spacelift private workers across AWS, Azure, GCP and on‑prem environments
• Develop reusable IaC execution patterns and frameworks using tools such as Terraform and Ansible
• Collaborate with other architects and engineers to ensure consistency, quality and best practices across solutions

Experience, Knowledge and Skills:

• 10+ years of professional experience, including at least 5 years in senior‑level Cloud Architect or similar roles
• Proven experience designing target‑state architectures and leading on‑prem to cloud migration initiatives
• Strong hands‑on expertise in AWS; Azure experience is a strong plus
• Deep experience with Infrastructure as Code, particularly Terraform and configuration management tools such as Ansible
• Practical experience with IaC platforms and scaling solutions such as Spacelift, Terraform Enterprise or Terraform Cloud
• Solid background in designing cloud‑native, resilient and scalable solutions for large enterprise IT environments
• Experience with HashiCorp Vault and modern secrets management approaches
• Good working knowledge of container platforms and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)
• Must‑have: experience working directly with customers in consulting and/or pre‑sales contexts
• Ability to engage with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders and clearly articulate architectural trade‑offs
• Strong sense of ownership, autonomy and accountability for delivered solutions
• Professional or expert‑level cloud architecture certification
• Native‑level Polish and fluent English communication skills
• Fully remote working model
• Employee referral program
