The Role
Kyndryl is seeking a talented AWS Solutions Expert. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in designing, building, and migrating complex workloads to AWS. In this role, you will be instrumental in developing comprehensive cloud strategies, creating scalable and secure AWS environments, and guiding clients through seamless migrations from on-premises infrastructure to the cloud and manage Cloud BAU operations.

Responsibilities Include:

Your responsibilities will include developing and implementing scalable AWS architectures, focusing on modernizing VMware workloads and ensuring robust, secure, and cost-effective cloud environments.

You will design and deploy AWS landing zones to establish a secure, multi-account AWS environment, adhering to best practices for compliance, security, and account management.

Leading initiatives to modernize on-premises VMware environments by leveraging AWS services (e.g., VMware to EC2) and developing strategies for re-platforming and refactoring applications will be a key part of your role.

Additionally, you will manage the planning and execution of cloud migration projects, including assessments, dependency mapping, migration strategy, and risk mitigation.

Partnering with clients to understand their business requirements, define project scope, and ensure successful cloud transformation outcomes will be essential.

Ensuring all designs and implementations comply with AWS best practices, security policies, and relevant industry standards is crucial.

You will utilize Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools, such as AWS Cloud Formation, Terraform, and Ansible, to automate deployment and management processes.

Optimizing cloud environments for cost, performance, and scalability while following AWS best practices and governance frameworks will be part of your responsibilities.

Finally, you will produce and maintain detailed architectural documentation, operational procedures, and best practice guidelines, and provide training to internal teams and clients on cloud adoption and management.

Who You Are
