AWS Cloud Architect
About the role
Overview
In today's digital-first environment, organizations rely on cloud adoption and modernization to stay competitive. Our OnX Cloud Architects partner with clients to migrate and modernize workloads on AWS, design secure and scalable architectures, and provide hands-on expertise throughout project delivery. We leverage AWS-native services, automation, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to build resilient systems that enable data-driven insights, operational efficiency, and innovation.
We help clients accelerate their cloud journey by delivering architectural best practices, migration frameworks, and actionable roadmaps that align business strategy with technology outcomes.
Our team works with clients to:
- Migrate and modernize workloads from on-premises and other clouds to AWS.
- Design and implement scalable, secure, and cost-optimized AWS solutions.
- Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code frameworks for repeatable and automated deployments.
- Provide architectural documentation and solution diagrams for clear communication and governance.
- Design and implement containerized solutions with Amazon EKS and Kubernetes.
- Create CI/CD pipelines for IaC and application deployments.
- Deliver consulting and advisory services to guide clients through complex cloud transformation initiatives.
Responsibilities
As an AWS Cloud Architect, you will:
- Lead workload migration initiatives : Plan and execute migrations from on-premises and multi-cloud environments to AWS.
- Architect AWS solutions : Design highly available, secure, and scalable architectures using AWS best practices and the Well-Architected Framework.
- Produce architectural documentation and diagrams : Create reference architectures, design documents, and deployment guides to support delivery and governance.
- Implement and optimize Kubernetes and EKS solutions : Design, deploy, and manage enterprise-grade container orchestration environments.
- Develop IaC frameworks : Build automated deployment pipelines using CloudFormation, AWS CDK (TypeScript), and Terraform.
- Enable CI/CD for IaC and workloads : Implement continuous integration and delivery pipelines for cloud infrastructure and applications.
- Engage with clients directly : Provide consulting expertise, conduct workshops, and lead solution design discussions with business and technical stakeholders.
- Stay current on AWS services and trends : Recommend and integrate new AWS services to continuously improve client environments.
Requirements
Required:
- Proven hands-on experience architecting and delivering AWS solutions.
- Strong background in workload migrations from on-premises and other clouds to AWS.
- Expertise in Kubernetes and Amazon EKS design and operations.
- Proficiency with IaC tools: AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK (TypeScript), and Terraform.
- Experience building CI/CD pipelines for IaC and workloads.
- Solid understanding of AWS networking, IAM (policies, roles, STS, cross-account access), security, and DevOps practices.
- Hands-on experience with AWS Landing Zones (Control Tower).
- Experience using AWS Systems Manager for operational setup, automation, and optimization.
- Proficiency with Amazon CloudWatch for monitoring, logging, and observability.
- FinOps experience: ability to review, analyze, and optimize AWS cloud costs.
- Strong communication and client-facing consulting skills.
- AWS Solutions Architect Professional or Specialty certifications.
- 4+ years of professional experience in cloud architecture, engineering, or solution delivery.
Nice to Have:
- Experience with hybrid architectures and multi-cloud strategies.
- Familiarity with container security, service mesh, and advanced observability solutions.
- Knowledge of AWS and non-AWS databases (RDS, Aurora, DynamoDB, or migration of legacy DBs to AWS).
- Experience with monitoring and logging solutions beyond CloudWatch (e.g., Prometheus, ELK, OpenSearch).
Education
- Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent experience.
- Preferred: Bachelor’s in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical field.
