ESDS - Senior Technical Architect - IT Infrastructure

Responsibilities :

• End-to-End Architecture Design : Architect distributed, event-driven, and microservices-based systems similar to public cloud platforms. Leverage containers, Kubernetes, and hybrid virtualization environments (Hypervisor, OpenStack) in architecting it.
• Technology Evaluation & Strategy : Evaluate and recommend the right mix of tools, frameworks, and design patterns for each project, balancing performance, cost, scalability, and maintainability.
• Infrastructure & DevOps Alignment : Define infrastructure as code (IaC) strategies and embed DevOps, AIOps, and MLOps practices into system delivery pipelines. Integrate tools like GitLab, Jira, and cloud-native CI / CD workflows.
• Data & Integration Architecture : Design secure, high-performance system and database architectures using PgSQL, MongoDB, Redis, InfluxDB, Kafka, and ESB patterns to support real-time, analytical, and transactional workloads.
• Scalability & Resilience : Leverage knowledge of distributed computing, SDN / SDS, and container orchestration to build robust systems capable of handling high throughput with minimal latency and failure recovery.
• UML & Technical Documentation : Develop and maintain comprehensive UML models, architectural diagrams, and technical documentation that effectively communicate design intent across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Mentorship & Governance : Provide architectural oversight, code-level guidance, and mentorship to development teams. Ensure adherence to architectural standards, KPIs, and KRAs through reviews and active collaboration.
• Continuous Innovation : Stay at the forefront of emerging technologies and best practices.
• Propose architectural improvements that leverage advancements in AI / ML, cloud-native development, and intelligent automation.
• Deep expertise in cloud platforms engineering such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Strong understanding of architectural patterns and design principles, including Event-Driven Architecture, distributed computing, enterprise bus, microservices, and high-performance computing.
• Proficiency in architecture diagramming tools and documentation.
• Strong foundation in data structures and algorithms, with a passion for programming (Python, Go preferred).
• Excellent leadership and communication skills.
• Strategic mindset with the ability to assess long-term implications of architectural decisions.
