• Deploy and govern AWS-hosted VDI solutions and regulated Databricks environments, including data platform governance and secure service integrations
• Implement cost governance strategies (budgets, tagging, FinOps cadence) and multi-region disaster recovery aligned with business objectives
• Lead architecture reviews, design workshops, and enable knowledge transfer to in-house teams for long-term platform ownership
• Create clear diagrams, reference architectures, Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform preferred), and actionable documentation

Required Skills and Experience

• 15+ years in enterprise infrastructure/cloud architecture; 7+ years hands-on with AWS at scale
• Proven experience designing and launching at least two AWS landing zones in production
• Deep expertise in AWS Organizations, Control Tower, IAM Identity Center, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, KMS, WAF, GuardDuty, Security Hub, Config, CloudTrail, Macie, and Network Firewall
• Track record running Databricks on AWS in regulated/secure environments
• Experience architecting enterprise VDI solutions on AWS
• Strong knowledge of handling PII and implementing compliance controls (NIST CSF, SOC 2, HIPAA, or PCI)
• Expert-level Terraform skills; familiarity with CDK and CloudFormation
• Demonstrated ability to create high-quality reference architectures, ADRs, and technical documentation
• Excellent communication skills with both technical and executive audiences

Preferred Skills

• AWS Solutions Architect - Professional and AWS Security - Specialty certifications
• Experience supporting large-scale on-prem to AWS migrations
• Familiarity with API Gateway, EKS, ECS, and integrations (Okta, ServiceNow, Splunk, CrowdStrike)
• Background in Telecommunications or Service Provider industries

Benefits

• 100% remote work flexibility
• Lead mission-critical, high-visibility projects impacting enterprise cloud strategy
• Collaborate with top-tier engineers, security, and application teams
• Opportunity to build, document, and transfer ownership of a modern AWS platform
• Work with cutting-edge AWS and data technologies in a supportive, growth-oriented environment
