  • Proven ability to design and operate multi-account AWS organizations, leveraging Control Tower, Service Catalog, SCPs, and cross-account IAM roles to enforce governance and isolation.
  • Advanced experience architecting VPC topologies, including Transit Gateway, private/public subnet design, NAT/GW cost optimization, and egress control for regulated environments.
  • Deep knowledge of networking in AWS.
  • Hands-on experience implementing observability pipelines at scale, integrating NewRelic, CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog with OpenTelemetry collectors.
  • Familiarity with EKS internals: node group management, autoscaling, and Kubernetes cost/latency optimization.

Responsibilities

  • Define and steer medium- and long-term architectural strategies aligned with company goals.
  • Lead technological transformations and modernizations of critical systems, ensuring efficiency, scalability and reliability.
  • Serve as the technical authority for the Engineering and Architecture Chapters, championing best practices and quality standards.
  • Mentor senior engineers and technical leaders, fostering a culture of technical excellence and continuous learning.
  • Promote the adoption of AI-assisted engineering practices within your squad and chapter, leveraging tools for code generation, automated refactoring, test case creation, and technical documentation.
  • Codify architecture into practice, delivering reference implementations and golden-path templates that teams can scaffold in minutes.
  • Own API governance end to end, with contract-first workflows, OpenAPI/AsyncAPI linting, compatibility rules, schema-registry usage, and large-scale consumer contract testing.
  • Institutionalize reliability by defining SLIs and SLOs with teams, establishing error-budget policies, enabling burn-rate alerting, and automating the tracking of post-incident actions.
  • Make observability the default through standardized traces, metrics, and logs; consistent span and attribute conventions, dashboards, and log correlation with golden dashboards per service.
  • Lead policy-as-code adoption across CI/CD, Kubernetes admission and IaC.
