• Evaluate and select cloud and datacenter services to meet requirements for scalability, security, and cost-efficiency.
• Design and advise on hybrid networking architectures, including high-level planning for routing, firewalls, VPNs, and private connectivity between datacenter and cloud environments.
• Define and guide hybrid data architecture strategies, including SAN/NAS integration, Azure Files, Blob Storage, S3 buckets, and cross-platform access planning for structured and unstructured data.
• Assess and optimize existing infrastructure and deployment methodologies to align with cloud adoption frameworks and business goals.
• Design and document scalable, secure, and reliable system architectures, including visual diagrams, technical documentation, and implementation plans.
• Architect and oversee VMware environments, including vSphere, VMFS, storage provisioning, and integration with cloud platforms.
• Implement best practices for hybrid software deployment and endpoint management, leveraging Intune, Azure, and M365 for compliance and lifecycle management.
• Collaborate across service desk, engineering, security, and business teams to define and iterate on modernization strategies.
• Provide technical leadership on cloud architecture, governance, and adoption, translating business needs into robust technical solutions.
• Develop and maintain cloud governance frameworks, including identity, access control, data protection, and resource usage policies.
• Conduct cloud environment assessments to identify opportunities for performance optimization, cost savings, and security enhancements.
• Lead automation initiatives using Infrastructure-as-Code tools like Terraform and Azure DevOps, promoting CI/CD and DevOps best practices.
• Mentor and coach team members on cloud technologies, VMware architecture, hybrid networking, and data strategies, fostering a culture of technical excellence.
• Support pre-sales and solution scoping, including workshops, requirements gathering, and SOW creation.
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex issues across cloud infrastructure, networking, identity, and VMware environments, ensuring high availability.
• Stay current with trends in cloud computing, identity, networking, and hybrid data platforms, and proactively recommend improvements.
