We are looking for a Cloud Architect for this project! What are we looking for?

The Cloud Enterprise Architect provides strategic oversight of all cloud-based solutions across the organization. This role ensures that every technical proposal aligns with corporate architecture standards, risk management policies, and long-term business objectives. Acting as a strategic “gatekeeper”, the role focuses on best-practice compliance and architectural integrity rather than day-to-day coding or infrastructure provisioning.

Main Tasks:

• Strategic Roadmap Execution: Execute the Cloud portfolio roadmap, ensuring all initiatives align with CIB’s business objectives, regulatory mandates, and data sovereignty requirements.
• Governance & Compliance: Define and enforce architectural guardrails regarding data residency and regulatory compliance (e.g., GDPR, DORA, and local banking laws).
• Policy Evolution: Define, enforce, and contribute to governance processes, including cloud security standards, Secure Development Lifecycle (SCA, SAST, DAST), compliance checks, and cost management policies.
• Portfolio Oversight: Monitor the portfolio of internally and externally hosted cloud applications; assess risk, maturity, and drive the migration roadmap for all in-scope applications.
• Design Standards: Deliver architectural blueprints, design patterns, and reference frameworks (e.g., Cloud Design Patterns, CI/CD, IaC) to ensure consistency and reusability across development teams.
• Cloud-Native Guidance: Advise development squads on cloud-native design, API strategy, DevOps practices, data analytics, AI/ML integration, and open-source tooling (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift, Terraform, Ansible).
• Emerging Technology Validation: Support the validation of emerging technologies by tracking Proofs of Concept (PoCs) with internal teams, external fintech partners, or vendors.
• Strategic Liaison: Act as the bridge between high-level enterprise strategy and technical design, liaising with business and technology leaders to drive agendas forward.
• Communication: Report progress, risks, and recommendations to IT and senior business stakeholders through written reports, presentations, and governance forums.
• Cross-Functional Influence: Participate in cross-functional committees (e.g., API governance, AI ethics, internal cloud programs, fintech partnerships) to influence broader technology roadmaps.

Technical Skills:

• Systems Architecture: Demonstrated expertise in software and systems implementation, including OOP, OOAD, Middleware, Scalability, and Resiliency within distributed systems.
• Cloud Platforms: Minimum of 5 years of experience designing, migrating, and operating production workloads on one or more major platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or IBM Cloud).
• Containerization & IaC: Hands-on experience with container orchestration and Infrastructure as Code (Kubernetes, OpenShift, Docker, Terraform, Ansible).
• Security Integration: Experience embedding Secure Development Lifecycle tools (SCA, SAST, DAST, CSPM) into CI/CD pipelines.
• Frameworks & Analysis: Proficiency in Enterprise Architecture frameworks (e.g., TOGAF, Zachman) and Risk Management frameworks. Ability to perform Gap Analysis, SWOT analysis, and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) modelling.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Knowledge of IBM Cloud services (IBM Cloud Pak, Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud) or OpenStack.
• Relevant Professional Certifications (e.g., AWS Solutions Architect Professional, Azure Architect, Google Professional Cloud Architect, or TOGAF).
• Exposure to the Financial Services industry (Banking, Payments, Capital Markets).
• Knowledge of Data Science principles.

Location: Hybrid in Lisbon (Portugal)
