AWS Enterprise Architect

Our client is seeking an experienced Enterprise Architect to serve as a tech lead for our enterprise platform re-architecture initiative. This role requires deep expertise in AWS cloud-native solutions, particularly at the application layer, and experience in workload solutioning with serverless technologies. The ideal candidate must also demonstrate strong knowledge in business rules design and implementation, with a focus on evaluating when to onboard a complex technology stack such as BRMS (e.g., Drools, Apache Airflow) versus using cloud-native solutions or database configuration tables to achieve business agility. The candidate will report directly to the CIO and initially join on a 6 12-month contract, with the possibility for extension based on project requirements.

  • Lead the technical and architectural direction of the enterprise platform re-architecture initiative, ensuring alignment with the organization's strategic vision and goals.
  • Design and implement cloud-native application solutions with a strong focus on AWS services, including serverless technologies (Lambda, Fargate, API Gateway, Step Functions, Glue) and workload migration strategies.
  • Provide expert guidance on the implementation of business rules, evaluating when to introduce technologies such as BRMS (Drools, Airflow) or opt for more streamlined cloud-native solutions.
  • Strategize and implement configuration-based approaches, such as using database tables, to enable business agility while minimizing the need for additional third-party technology solutions and their associated skillsets.
  • Lead and support re-platforming efforts from legacy systems to cloud-based architectures, ensuring a seamless transition for critical workloads.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to the CIO and senior leadership, offering insights into architectural strategy, technology selection, and risk management.
  • Provide architectural expertise in RDBMS systems, particularly Oracle and PostgreSQL, and support database migrations as required.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including development and business units, to ensure that technical solutions meet business needs and objectives.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Extensive practical experience in AWS cloud-native solutions, with expertise in serverless architectures (Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, etc.).
  • Strong knowledge of business rules design and implementation, with the ability to assess when to onboard a complex BRMS like Drools or Airflow versus cloud-native or configuration-based alternatives.
  • Proven experience in architecting scalable cloud-based platforms and leading large-scale re-platforming or migration projects.
  • Expertise in RDBMS, particularly Oracle and PostgreSQL, with experience in database migrations and design.
  • Ability to lead development teams through critical re-platforming initiatives while ensuring adherence to best practices and business needs.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills, with experience presenting architectural strategies and solutions to senior leadership and cross-functional teams.
  • Proven ability to balance introducing new technologies with maintaining simplicity, cost efficiency, and ease of management by leveraging configuration tables or other cloud-native features.

Nice to have Skills:

  • Lead architectural governance, ensuring adherence to design patterns, operational standards, and coding best practices throughout the re-architecture process.
  • Develop and maintain architectural documentation, including high-level solution designs, technical roadmaps, and implementation plans.
  • Facilitate architectural reviews and ensure that designs align with organizational standards and goals.
  • Mentor development teams on architectural best practices, including the appropriate use of technologies and frameworks.
  • May perform other duties as required.
  • Telecommunications experience preferred
  • Master's Degree
