Cloud Architect

Senior Cloud Architect (Azure/Terraform)

We are seeking a Senior Cloud Architect to support an enterprise Azure Network Segmentation initiative. This role will work directly with business stakeholders, application teams, and project teams to translate requirements and vendor-provided designs into scalable, secure cloud solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead architecture and design efforts for Azure-based cloud initiatives.
• Assess business and application requirements and develop actionable implementation plans.
• Design and support Azure network segmentation, Application Gateways, and WAF implementations.
• Provide architectural guidance for AKS and Databricks-based solutions.
• Establish and promote Infrastructure-as-Code best practices using Terraform.
• Drive cloud governance, security, and operational standards across projects.
• Collaborate with internal teams and vendors to ensure successful solution delivery.

Required Skills:

• Azure Cloud Architecture
• Terraform (expert level)
• Azure Networking & Network Segmentation
• Azure Application Gateway & Web Application Firewall (WAF)
• Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
• Azure Databricks
• Cloud Governance & Security Best Practices
• Strong stakeholder-facing communication and consulting skills

This is very much a consultative Solutions Architect role rather than a hands-on engineering position, with an emphasis on customer engagement, solution design, governance, and translating requirements into executable delivery plans.
