The role will partner with application, data, security, architecture, and operations teams to ensure solutions meet security, compliance, reliability, performance, operational, and cost objectives. Solid AWS experience is expected; Azure experience is preferred but not required.

  • Experience designing and implementing solutions with Dataproc, Dataform, Cloud SQL, and BigQuery.

  • Strong command of cloud security, networking, reliability, disaster recovery, observability, performance engineering, and cost optimization.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead technical reviews, mentor engineers, influence stakeholders, and communicate complex decisions clearly to technical and nontechnical audiences.
  • Willingness and ability to personally implement, test, troubleshoot, and support critical solutions rather than operating solely in an advisory or governance capacity.
