• Full-Time

Thoriva, an Infinite Company, is seeking an experienced Infrastructure Cloud Architect to lead the architecture and establishment of a new cloud-based environment supporting Thoriva Loan Platforms. This role will define the cloud infrastructure strategy, architecture standards, security and resiliency patterns, and delivery roadmap needed to operate mission-critical loan platform capabilities in a secure, scalable, reliable, and cost-conscious manner.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on architecture leader who can translate business and regulatory needs into practical infrastructure designs, and guide engineering teams from initial platform decisions through implementation and ongoing operations. Success requires deep cloud infrastructure expertise, strong technical judgement, disciplined governance, and the ability to communicate clearly with executives, clients, security teams, application leaders, and engineers.

Thoriva is an AI technology company delivering intelligent, data-driven solutions to transform government operations. We combine AI solutions, commercial expertise, and complex business logic to address government and federal agencies’ biggest challenges.

As the Infrastructure Cloud Architect, you will serve as the lead architect for a new cloud environment supporting Thoriva Loan Platforms. You will lead the effort to establish the target-state architecture, reference patterns, engineering standards, and technical guardrails for cloud infrastructure. Areas of focus will include networking, identity management, cybersecurity controls, data protection, observability, automation, continuity, and platform operations. You will partner with application, security, operations, data, and delivery teams to create an environment that supports modernization while protecting the reliability and regulatory obligations of mission-critical loan servicing platforms.

You will evaluate technology options, document decisions and tradeoffs, lead design reviews, guide implementation teams, and ensure the resulting environment is supportable, auditable, resilient, and prepared for future growth.
