About Us

We are a dynamic consulting and product development company specializing in cloud-native enterprise solutions across various industries, including healthcare, IoT, and business automation. We are seeking a hands-on Infrastructure Architect/Lead DevOps Engineer to lead cloud architecture and DevOps implementation efforts across multiple client projects.

Role Overview

As an Infrastructure Architect / Lead DevOps Engineer, you will be responsible for analyzing existing client infrastructure, defining modern and scalable cloud architectures, creating implementation plans, and leading the execution of DevOps and infrastructure automation practices. You will work closely with internal engineering teams, client stakeholders, and solution architects.

Key Responsibilities

• Analyze current infrastructure and DevOps capabilities of client environments (mostly AWS and Azure).
• Define and document cloud architecture blueprints, infrastructure plans, and DevOps strategies.
• Lead and participate in the implementation of cloud infrastructure (IaC, CI/CD, secrets management, monitoring, security, cost optimization).
• Design and govern secure, scalable, and resilient cloud environments, including compute, networking, storage, and databases.
• Establish and maintain Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep, CloudFormation, etc.).
• Define and enforce best practices for identity and access management, encryption, logging, and compliance (e.g., CIS benchmarks, AWS Well-Architected Framework, Azure CAF).
• Create and maintain comprehensive architecture documentation and visual diagrams using modern tools (e.g., Lucidchart, Flowchart Maker & Online Diagram Software , Miro).
• Plan and implement centralized secrets and configuration management (e.g., AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, HashiCorp Vault).
• Optimize infrastructure cost across environments using tooling and best practices.
• Support incident response, capacity planning, and performance analysis.

• Mentor DevOps engineers across projects and contribute to internal reusable frameworks.

   

Required Skills and Experience

• 5+ years in DevOps, infrastructure architecture, or cloud engineering roles.
• Hands-on experience with AWS and/or Azure (certifications preferred: AWS SA Pro / DevOps Pro, Azure Architect Expert).
• Strong knowledge of:
  • Compute (EC2, Lambda, Azure VMs, Functions)
  • Networking (VPC, Subnets, Route Tables, Load Balancers, VPN, Transit Gateway)
  • Storage (S3, EBS, EFS, Azure Storage)
  • Databases (RDS, DynamoDB, CosmosDB, Azure SQL, etc.)
  • Monitoring/Logging (CloudWatch, Azure Monitor, ELK, Prometheus, Grafana)
  • CI/CD (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, CodePipeline)
  • IaC (Terraform, Bicep, CloudFormation)
  • Configuration Management (Ansible, SSM, Puppet, Chef)
  • Secrets Management (AWS Secrets Manager, Key Vault, Vault)
  • Container orchestration and deployment (EKS, AKS, Fargate, Docker, Helm)
• Familiarity with Well-Architected Frameworks (AWS, Azure), security standards (e.g., SOC2, ISO 27001, CIS).
• Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills in complex distributed systems.
• Proficient in at least one scripting language (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell).

Soft Skills and Collaboration

• Excellent presentation and documentation skills — ability to communicate architectures and plans to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong sense of ownership and accountability.
• Comfortable working independently in fast-paced, multi-project environments.
• Collaborative mindset and ability to mentor and support other engineers.
• Fluent English communication (written and spoken).
• We value professional, respectful, and clear communication — both internally and with clients.
• Friendly and open team culture: we support each other, share knowledge, and celebrate success together.
• Proven ability to manage your own time and priorities effectively in a multi-project environment.

• Experience with time tracking and reporting tools in a consulting or remote work setup.

   

Nice to Have

• Experience with multi-tenant SaaS architectures.
• Knowledge of compliance standards relevant to cloud infrastructure (HIPAA, GDPR, FedRAMP).
• Familiarity with GitOps, service mesh (Istio, Linkerd), or serverless-first architectures.
• Kubernetes ecosystem experience (monitoring, scaling, policy enforcement).

• Experience integrating third-party tools (e.g., Datadog, Snyk, Cloudflare, WAFs).

   

Why Join Us

• Engage in strategic, high-impact projects for innovative companies.
• Lead and influence infrastructure decisions from day one.
• Work with cross-functional teams in a flexible and supportive remote environment.
• Minimal overhead, maximum impact – we value autonomy and craftsmanship.
