Full Time Key Responsibilities Architectural Sovereignty:
Design and govern the enterprise-wide blueprints for hybrid-cloud and multi-cloud environments.
Massive Migration Leadership:
Lead the technical strategy for migrating thousands of applications from physical data centers to optimized cloud or colocation endpoints. The "Owner-Builder"
Execution:
Bridge the gap between high-level strategy and tactical execution. You don't just hand off a design; you audit the code, validate the CI/CD pipelines, and ensure the "build" matches the "vision."
Program Orchestration:
Act as the technical North Star for large-scale programs, ensuring disparate workstreams (security, networking, compute, and app dev) remain aligned.
High-Stakes Stakeholder Management:
Translate complex technical risks into business outcomes for C-suite executives while maintaining deep credibility with engineering teams.
Operational Readiness:
Ensure that migrated applications aren't just "moved," but are resilient, observable, and cost-optimized.
The Ideal Profile Diverse Technical Arsenal:
You are "T-Shaped." You have deep expertise in Applications but are equally comfortable discussing Infrastructure services.
Migration Veteran:
You've lived through the "war stories" of large-scale data center exits. You know how to handle "un-migratable" legacy apps and complex dependencies. The "Builder"
Mindset:
You likely have a background in software engineering or systems administration. You prefer a whiteboard and a terminal over a 50-slide PowerPoint deck.
Travel-Ready:
You thrive on the ground. You are comfortable traveling up to 50% to interface with data center teams, regional hubs, and global stakeholders.
Required Qualifications Experience:
12+ years in technical leadership roles, with at least 5 years as a Lead or Chief Architect.
Migration Mastery:
Proven track record of leading at least two $50M+ data center migration or transformation programs.
Cloud Fluency:
Expert-level certifications (or equivalent experience) in AWS, Azure, or GCP. •
Communication:
Ability to command a room of engineers and a boardroom of executives simultaneously.
Education:
BS/MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent "battle-tested" experience).
