About this role
Strategic Leadership & Vision
Executive Consulting:
Act as a trusted technical advisor to the teams,customer executive, and technical leadership, translating complex technical roadmap into clear business value and risk assessments.
Enterprise Cloud Strategy:
Define the multi-year, enterprise-wide strategy for cloud adoption, migration, and modernization, with a strong focus on
Google Cloud services and strategic interoperability with the second cloud platform (Pref AWS).
Architecture Governance: Establish and enforce global cloud governance frameworks, architectural standards, reference models, and reusable patterns for deployment, security, and operations across all environments.
DevOps & Cost Strategy:
Drive advanced DevOps practices and accountability models. Oversee cloud cost optimization initiatives, negotiate large enterprise cloud contracts, and establish technical guardrails to ensure maximum ROI across the multi-cloud footprint.
• Google Cloud Deep Expertise: Architect and lead the implementation of complex, large-scale solutions on Google Cloud , with hands-on experience in leveraging services like GKE , Cloud Dataflow , BigQuery , Cloud Run , Vertex AI , and Cloud Spanner . • Interoperability Design: Design and govern the integration patterns for hybrid and multi-cloud systems, focusing on low-latency, secure connectivity, and consistent Identity and Access Management (IAM) across platforms (e.g.,using federated identity or centralized key management). • Advanced Security: Define the DevSecOps and cloud security posture, ensuring that designs meet stringent Indian regulatory (e.g., data residency) and global compliance requirements (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA). • Innovation & PoCs: Lead Proof-of-Concept (PoC) initiatives for emerging technologies like Generative AI (e.g., Google Vertex AI or AWS Bedrock), serverless computing, and define their eventual architecture and integration into the enterprise landscape. • Cloud Migration: experience in Cloud migration strategy and implementation • Observability: Architect a comprehensive visibility strategy to monitor system health and proactively resolve performance bottlenecks across complex cloud environments. • Policy Definition: Design automated governance guardrails that ensure every deployment is secure, compliant, and cost-optimized by default.
• Team Development: Mentor, coach, and grow a team of Senior/Lead Cloud Architects and engineers, fostering a culture of engineering excellence, ownership, and continuous learning. • Process Improvement: Own and drive continuous improvement of the cloud architecture delivery pipeline, promoting GitOps and end-to-end automation across the development lifecycle. • Cross-Functional Alignment: Collaborate with the Data & AI Team and Engineering Leads to ensure architectural decisions align with product roadmaps and business domain goals.
• Experience:15+ years of progressive experience in IT/Software Engineering, with at least 5-10 years in Cloud Architecture leadership roles managing enterprise-scale transformations.
• Google Cloud: Mastery of Google Cloud services, networking, and security. Primary Cloud skill • Second Cloud: Deep architectural experience in AWS (e.g., EC2,Lambda, S3, RDS, EKS)
• Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect (Preferred) • Professional/Expert-level Certification from the secondary cloud provider (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional).
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform (including multi-cloud modules) • At least one programming language ( Java/Python)
