TEKsystems is currently looking for a Cloud Infrastructure Architect with strong infrastructure design experience and hands-on cloud provisioning in AWS or Azure, with deep expertise in Terraform. You'll own end-to-end architecture for scalable, secure, and resilient platforms-translating business requirements into reference architectures, patterns, and automated infrastructure. You will partner closely with security, networking, platform engineering, and application teams to deliver well-architected, cost-optimized, and observable cloud solutions.
• Architect & Design: Create target state architectures, solution diagrams, and roadmaps for cloud-native and hybrid workloads (networking, compute, storage, identity, data, and edge). • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Lead Terraform module design, standards, and reusable patterns; implement CI/CD pipelines for IaC (e.g., GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps). • Cloud Provisioning: Build and automate landing zones, VPC/VNet topologies, subnets, routing, firewalls, private endpoints, and service integrations in AWS or Azure. • Security & Compliance: Embed controls (IAM/ABAC/RBAC, secrets management, encryption, policies/guardrails), align to frameworks (CIS/NIST), and partner with GRC. • Resilience & Reliability: Architect for HA/DR, multi-AZ/region patterns, backups, and SLOs; implement observability (logs, metrics, traces) and performance tuning. • Cost & FinOps: Right-size resources, leverage savings plans/reserved instances, tagging and showback/chargeback; drive continuous cost optimization. • Technical Leadership: Create reference architectures, standards, and patterns; conduct design reviews and threat modeling; mentor engineers. • Migration & Modernization: Lead discovery, assessment, and migration/modernization (rehost/refactor) of workloads into cloud landing zones. • Stakeholder Enablement: Translate business needs into technical architectures; produce clear documentation, runbooks, and executive-ready diagrams. • Governance & Platform: Contribute to platform engineering capabilities (golden images, service catalogs, self-service, policy-as-code).
Required Qualifications
• 7+ years in infrastructure/solutions architecture, including on-prem networking, virtualization, and systems design. • 3-5+ years in AWS and/or Azure architecture and provisioning (landing zones, VPC/VNet, IAM/AAD, storage, compute, Kubernetes or PaaS). • Strong Terraform experience: modules, workspaces, remote state, registries, policy-as-code (OPA/Sentinel), and code reviews. • Solid grasp of networking (CIDR, routing, VPN/ExpressRoute/Direct Connect, NAT, firewalls, DNS, private link/endpoints). • Experience with CI/CD for IaC and app platforms (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, GitLab CI, or Jenkins). • Security-first mindset: identity, least privilege, key management, encryption, secrets, compliance alignment (CIS/NIST/ISO). • Observability: CloudWatch/CloudTrail, Azure Monitor/Log Analytics, PrometheGrafana, OpenTelemetry; incident response and SRE basics. • Documentation & Diagrams: Strong ability to author ADRs, HLD/LLD, and present to both technical and non-technical audiences.
