Principal Cloud Network Architect – Part-time

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Argentina.

📋 Description

• Design the global cloud transit backbone by assessing and establishing the target-state AWS multi-account routing framework, including a definitive design choice between AWS Cloud WAN and regional Transit Gateway (TGW) architectures to consolidate over 40 AWS accounts.

• Create the hybrid interconnect framework across both physical and cloud settings, encompassing Layer 2/Layer 3 connectivity between legacy data centers and AWS utilizing Digital Realty (PlatformDIGITAL / ServiceFabric) and AWS Direct Connect.

• Establish the cloud-native security perimeter and identity access by developing AWS WAF, AWS Shield Advanced, and centralized logging, while transitioning from raw credential management to AWS KMS/Secrets Manager and integrating AWS IAM with Entra ID for Single Sign-On (SSO).

• Standardize cloud routing boundaries for e-commerce and voice workloads, particularly by architecting a split-routing model: securely directing SIP signaling through AWS while keeping real-time RTP media on physical hardware to mitigate cloud latency and "noisy neighbor" effects.

• Provide a transition blueprint that includes Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) migration templates and a phased rollout strategy to facilitate migration from the current fragmented environment to a cohesive cloud infrastructure without disrupting voice or e-commerce services.

• Lead strategic Cloud FinOps and architectural economics by reviewing existing AWS expenditures, performing compute right-sizing, and implementing Reserved Instances and Savings Plans alongside structural cloud modifications.

⛳️ Requirements

• Over 8 years of experience in IT infrastructure/architecture, with a minimum of 5 years concentrated on AWS-native networking, multi-account transit architectures, and hybrid cloud integration.

• Advanced knowledge of AWS networking, including AWS Cloud WAN, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, VPC Lattice, Route 53, and cross-account governance (IAM / Resource Access Manager).

• Strong proficiency in "Hybrid BGP Fluency" (AS-PATH, MED, Local Pref) to serve as the cloud-side counterpart to core network engineers, effectively managing route handoffs at AWS Direct Connect or Microsoft Meet-Me Room edges without causing routing loops.

• Extensive expertise in AWS-native security perimeters (AWS WAF, Shield Advanced, GuardDuty, Security Hub) and enterprise identity federation.

• Demonstrated history of designing cross-region AWS Disaster Recovery (DR) architectures and implementing Cloud FinOps cost-reduction strategies.

• Comprehensive knowledge of Infrastructure as Code utilizing Terraform and AWS CloudFormation for large-scale network and routing automation.

• Experience in M&A cloud consolidation, including the integration of fragmented or "shadow IT" AWS environments into enterprise-level governance models.
