Cloud Architecture Design Leadership: Lead the design of target cloud architectures for migration programs, spanning compute, networking, storage, databases, and application platforms. Make critical architecture decisions balancing performance, cost, security, and operational requirements.
Project Hierarchy & Organization Design: Design GCP project hierarchy, resource organization, and shared VPC architectures. Establish patterns for multi-team, multi-environment deployments with clear isolation, governance, and resource management.
Networking Architecture: Design VPC, Shared VPC, and hybrid connectivity architectures. Define network segmentation, routing strategies, load balancing patterns, Cloud NAT configurations, and network security controls. Ensure network scalability and high availability.
Identity & Access Management (IAM) Strategy: Design IAM hierarchies, service accounts, and role-based access control (RBAC) frameworks. Establish least-privilege principles, cross-environment access patterns, and identity federation strategies.
Compute Architecture (GKE & GCE): Design container and virtual machine deployment architectures. Establish GKE cluster designs, node configurations, workload identity, and auto-scaling patterns. Define GCE image management and VM deployment strategies.
Data Platform Architecture: Design Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage, and data warehouse architectures. Establish data isolation patterns, backup/disaster recovery strategies, and cost optimization approaches for data platforms.
Observability & Monitoring Design: Architect Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring, and observability solutions. Design logging centralization, metric collection strategies, alerting policies, and dashboarding approaches for operational visibility.
Hybrid & Multi-Cloud Connectivity: Design hybrid connectivity solutions including Cloud Interconnect, VPN, and service mesh patterns. Establish patterns for on-premises integration, DNS resolution, and traffic management.
Infrastructure-as-Code & Automation: Champion infrastructure-as-code practices using Terraform. Design reusable modules, deployment patterns, and CI/CD integration for infrastructure automation across environments.
Migration Architecture Design: Design cloud migration architectures for lift-and-shift, re-platforming, and refactoring scenarios. Establish migration patterns, cutover strategies, and validation approaches for infrastructure and applications.
Technical Leadership & Mentoring: Provide technical leadership to engineering teams. Mentor cloud engineers on GCP best practices, architecture patterns, and technical decision-making. Conduct architecture reviews and design discussions.
Architecture Review & Quality Assurance: Review infrastructure code, designs, and implementations against architecture standards. Ensure adherence to security, performance, cost, and operational excellence principles. Drive continuous improvement.
Cost Optimization & Performance Tuning: Design cost-optimization strategies leveraging GCP pricing, committed use discounts, and resource optimization. Define performance baselines, establish tuning practices, and drive continuous optimization.
Documentation & Knowledge Transfer: Document architecture decisions, design patterns, and operational runbooks. Create architecture diagrams, design g
