Position Summary
Senior Cloud Architect (Microsoft Azure) responsible for architecting, securing, automating, and operating global cloud platforms supporting AI services, data analytics pipelines, financial systems, and scientific computing workloads.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, architect, and secure global Azure cloud environments with advanced networking (ExpressRoute, Virtual WAN, Private Link, DNS architecture, multi-region connectivity).
- Deliver scalable, highly available, secure infrastructure for AI/ML, data analytics, regulated enterprise apps, and scientific computing.
- Build and maintain Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Bicep) and end-to-end deployment pipelines.
- Automate provisioning/configuration and compliance workflows using Python (and/or PowerShell).
- Partner with Security, Network Engineering, Application Engineering, and Architecture teams for consistency and operational excellence.
- Lead cloud design reviews; enforce best practices and standard platform/networking patterns.
- Support cloud migrations, operational readiness, disaster recovery, and zero-trust networking; drive continuous improvement (governance, automation, observability, security).
Experience Requirements
- 8+ years cloud infrastructure/networking/enterprise IT architecture.
- 5+ years Azure hands-on engineering/architecture for large-scale cloud networking.
- Background operating globally distributed, highly available, secure mission-critical workloads.
- Regulated industry experience (biotech/pharma/financial services/healthcare) preferred.
Technical Qualifications
- Deep Azure networking (ExpressRoute, Global Reach, Virtual WAN, VPN Gateways, VNets, subnetting, peering, routing/UDRs, BGP, IPAM, DNS/Private DNS Resolver).
- Identity/access controls (RBAC, PIM, IAM patterns).
- Terraform/Bicep and Git-based CI/CD.
- Python (preferred) and/or PowerShell automation.
- Strong troubleshooting of complex networking (routing asymmetry, DNS behavior, SNAT, packet-level analysis).
Preferred Qualifications
- Next-gen firewalls/virtual security appliances (Palo Alto/Check Point/Fortinet).
- Advanced compute/networking (VM Scale Sets, global load balancing, multi-region architectures).
- Multi-cloud networking (AWS Transit Gateway, GCP VPC, hybrid routing).
- SD-WAN/SASE/zero-trust, network diagnostics (Wireshark/tcpdump/cloud packet capture).
- AKS/container networking and service mesh (plus).
Education Requirements
- Bachelor’s in CS/Engineering or related field preferred.
- Certifications desirable (AZ-700, AZ-305, Terraform Associate).
Compensation
- Princeton, NJ, US: $169,150–$204,970 (plus possible incentives/stock based on eligibility).
