We are seeking Expert Solution Architects to join our Solution Design team. This role is responsible for designing, leading, and governing the technical migration of workloads to cloud environments, providing end-to-end architecture leadership across discovery, migration, modernization, and stabilization, ensuring outcomes are aligned to business objectives.

• Develop Target State Architecture (TSA) design and migration strategy by identifying applications and defining the target state solution to support migration work streams, conducting application discovery and dependency mapping, developing application lists and migration waves, defining target-state architecture aligned with security, compliance, and governance, and developing high-level migration roadmaps.
• Create blueprints for target environments including a bill of materials containing hosting assets and configuration details. The TSA Document will include a logical and physical network layout showing the relationship of hosts to LAN, WAN, and cloud/target environment.
• Analyze data collection, refine Workstream Migration Plans, and optimize communication among stakeholders. Provide services including migration planning and execution, architecture consultation, application and data migration, disaster recovery infrastructure configuration, connectivity to AWS/Azure services, database migration, server buildout, network configuration, and integration into Active Directory.
• Conduct and validate discovery and assessment information; facilitate application and technical workshops with stakeholders; review target architectures, migration strategies, and project plans; and develop detailed migration strategies, wave plans, and runbooks.
• Assess current architecture and map components to AWS/Azure IaaS services such as EC2/AMI, Exa Data/SQL MI, Service Bus, and managed storage. Deploy and configure infrastructure aligned to client standards. Perform mandatory OS platform upgrades, changes, and re-platforming to meet minimum security standards.
