The Role Design and govern a multi-tenant cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure) for an e-commerce platform. Optimize capacity and costs for fluctuating traffic and AI agent compute, implement multi-region HA/DR for PostgreSQL 15 and Redis, enforce Terraform IaC governance, ensure cloud security and data residency compliance, and integrate containerized apps (Docker/Traefik) with monitoring (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry).

Built In Overview:
Multi-Tenant Cloud Infrastructure Design The Cloud Architect is responsible for designing, managing, and optimizing the entire multi-tenant cloud infrastructure that hosts our integrated supply chain e-commerce platform. While our current stack utilizes Oracle Cloud Free VMs, this role requires expertise in major public clouds (AWS/GCP/Azure) to architect scalable, resilient, cost-optimized, and compliant solutions that handle fluctuating e-commerce traffic, stable internal tool usage, and intensive AI agent compute demands.

Remote Stipend:
None initially. Based on your first-quarter performance, you may be offered a paid full-time opportunity, or even be absorbed directly by the client as an FTE. Key Responsibilities & Core Projects You will design and govern the platform's foundation, ensuring scalability and compliance across all environments.
Cloud Architecture Design:
Design and evolve the target cloud infrastructure (utilizing AWS, GCP, or Azure best practices) for maximum scalability, security, and high-availability, ensuring the platform can reliably support the MES $\rightarrow$ WMS $\rightarrow$ OMS flow.
Capacity Planning & Optimization:
Plan and optimize resource allocation to effectively handle unpredictable e-commerce traffic spikes and the specific compute requirements for AI agent training and inference, driving cost efficiency. High Availability & Disaster Recovery (DR): Implement multi-region/multi-AZ high-availability architectures and define comprehensive Disaster Recovery (DR) strategies for all core services, including PostgreSQL 15 and Redis. Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC)
Governance:
Establish and enforce best practices for Terraform usage, ensuring configuration consistency, security compliance, and auditable infrastructure changes.
Security & Compliance:
Conduct regular security reviews of cloud configurations (e.g., IAM, VPC/VNet, Storage) and ensure architecture aligns with data residency and compliance requirements relevant to our multi-tenant operations.
Service Integration:
Architect the network and service mesh overlay that integrates the containerized applications (Docker/Traefik) with external cloud services and the overall monitoring solution (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry). Required Technologies & Tools Candidates must possess deep architectural experience with public cloud providers and infrastructure automation:
Cloud Providers:
Expert-level proficiency in at least one major public cloud (AWS, GCP, or Azure). Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): Mandatory expertise in Terraform for cloud resource provisioning.
Containerization:
Deep knowledge of Docker networking, security, and orchestration principles.
Networking & Edge:
Experience configuring load balancing, service mesh, and ingress controllers (e.g., Traefik).
Data & Storage:
Architecting scalable database services (PostgreSQL) and object storage (MinIO).
Security:
Cloud security best practices, IAM policy design, and network segmentation. AI Agent Focus You will optimize the cloud layer for our emerging AI capabilities.
Compute Optimization:
Design elastic and cost-effective compute clusters (e.g., GPU instances) to efficiently handle the variable demands of LLM fine-tuning and multi-agent system orchestration.
Data Residency:
Architect the data pipeline and storage solutions to ensure that training data and model artifacts adhere to strict data residency requirements across tenants. Success Metrics & Career Path Performance will be measured by:
Cost Efficiency:
Demonstrable reduction in cloud operational costs (FinOps) while maintaining performance.
Availability:
Achieving defined SLAs/SLOs for infrastructure uptime and performance.
Compliance:
Successful implementation and auditing of cloud security and data residency controls.
Mentorship Structure:
Reports to the Solution Architect or Head of Technology, collaborating closely with the SRE and DevSecOps teams to operationalize cloud strategy.
