Job Description

An enterprise cloud architect is a senior role responsible for defining and guiding an organization’s overall cloud computing strategy and architecture. They are typically not hands‑on engineers but rather senior leaders who make strategic decisions, direct the cloud architecture function—often a Cloud Center of Excellence (CCOE)—and ensure the organization’s cloud initiatives align with its business goals. This role requires a deep understanding of technical areas like networking, data security, and compute, along with strong leadership and strategic planning skills.

• Cloud strategy – Define and oversee the organization’s cloud vision ensuring it aligns with business objectives.
• Architecture governance – Lead the Cloud Center of Excellence (CCOE) to set standards and provide governance for cloud adoption across the organization.
• Strategic decision‑making – Make high‑level architectural decisions about cloud adoption, migration, and optimization.
• Cross‑functional collaboration – Work closely with IT and business units to drive a cohesive and effective cloud strategy.
• Leadership – Serve as a senior leader for cloud initiatives, often guiding a team of cloud engineers and architects.

• Technical expertise – Deep knowledge of networking, VPNs, BGP, SD‑WAN, storage (block, file, object), compute (VMs, containers, serverless) and data (SQL, No
  
  SQL, data lakes).
• Security – Understanding of security concepts such as firewalls, zero‑trust architecture, identity federation, and data security.
• Business acumen – Ability to translate business needs into technical strategies and ensure cloud solutions support business goals.
• Leadership and communication – Strong skills to lead teams, collaborate with different departments, and communicate complex ideas clearly.
