We are looking for an Azure Cloud Architect who thrives on design and collaboration. This role is less about day‑to‑day administration and more about shaping the blueprint of our cloud landscape.

• Lead the design of cloud architectures across Azure core services, focusing on scalability, resilience, and compliance.
• Translate complex business and security requirements into clear, actionable cloud designs.
• Develop and maintain detailed architecture diagrams, standards, and technical documentation that guide engineers and stakeholders.
• Collaborate with Dev Sec Ops  engineers.
• Provide architectural oversight on cloud deployments, ensuring designs are implemented correctly and consistently.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to leadership and project teams, advocating for cloud best practices and cost‑optimization strategies.

• Deep expertise in Microsoft Azure core services: networking, compute, storage, identity, databases, monitoring, and security.
• Strong background with Azure application services:
  Logic Apps, Function Apps, and App Services, and ability to integrate them into broader solution designs.
• Solid understanding of cloud governance frameworks (e.g., policies, RBAC, cost controls).
• Experience with multi‑region designs, disaster‑recovery patterns, and hybrid connectivity.
• Excellent written communication skills; able to produce diagrams, decision trees, and design docs that teams can rely on.
• A mindset oriented toward collaboration, mentorship, and cross‑functional influence.

• Familiarity with regulated industry frameworks (CMMC, FedRAMP, HIPAA, PCI‑DSS, etc.).
• Prior work as part of an engineering team.
• Exposure to advanced serverless and integration patterns, such as Durable Functions, Event Grid, or Service Bus.
