· Continuously review and enhance the Security & Compliance Dashboard to maintain transparency and auditability.
Observability, Reliability & Operations· Define observability and reliability standards using Datadog and other monitoring tools.
· Establish platform SLOs/SLIs and promote proactive incident management and root cause analysis.
· Drive operational maturity through standardization and automation.
Architecture Consultation & Stakeholder Collaboration· Act as a trusted consultant to platform, application, and infrastructure teams for architectural reviews, modernization decisions, and migration strategies.
· Engage with senior stakeholders from Sales and After-Sales domains to align the unified platform’s roadmap with business objectives.
· Foster collaboration across domain architects, security, and data teams to ensure holistic design integration.
Mentorship & Thought Leadership· Mentor platform and DevOps engineers, fostering an engineering culture built on quality, agility, and innovation.
· Contribute to architecture governance boards, design reviews, and technical councils.
· Evangelize platform engineering best practices across the organization.
QualifikationenRequired Skills & ExperienceTechnical Expertise:· + years of overall IT experience, with 8– years of hands-on expertise in AWS cloud architecture and platform engineering.
· Experience in applying software-defined networking (SDN) principles for centralised control and automation
· Proven experience in platform consolidation and integration across multiple business domains or independent ecosystems.
· Experience in Implementing zero-trust security models, integrated firewalls, VPNs, and continuous monitoring for threat detection and compliance.
· Deep expertise in Kubernetes (EKS), ECS, Lambda, Terraform/CloudFormation, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and Kafka.
· Strong knowledge of DevSecOps, CI/CD, automation frameworks, and observability stacks (Datadog preferred).
· Experience with developer ecosystem tools such as JFrog Artifactory, Harbor, Backstage, and PactFlow.
· Solid understanding of cloud security, IAM, guardrails, and compliance automation frameworks.
· Prior experience integrating or migrating legacy / mainframe-linked systems into modern, cloud-native environments.
Leadership & Consulting Skills:· Demonstrated ability to architect, lead, and deliver cross-functional platform initiatives.
· Strong analytical and consultative mindset — able to identify architectural risks and propose pragmatic solutions.
· Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills across technical and business audiences.
· Passion for developer experience, platform reliability, and continuous improvement.
Preferred Qualifications· AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional.
