Job description

We are seeking an experienced Cloud Architect with a strong background in Network Security, Hybrid Connectivity, and Cloud Infrastructure Design. The ideal candidate combines hands-on network engineering experience (Cisco, Palo Alto, F5, Fortinet) with multi-cloud architecture skills (Huawei Cloud, Google Cloud, Azure, AWS) to design, secure, and optimize enterprise-grade infrastructures. This role bridges on-prem and cloud, ensuring secure, high-performance, and resilient environments across all layers — network, security, compute, and application. Requirements • 5+ years of experience in Cloud Architecture, Network Security, or Hybrid Infrastructure roles. • Strong practical experience with switching, routing, and firewall configuration (Cisco IOS/ASA, Palo Alto PAN-OS, FortiGate). • Deep knowledge of networking fundamentals (VLAN, BGP, OSPF, NAT, IPSec, SSL VPN). • Hands-on experience with load balancer and WAF solutions (F5 BIG-IP, Citrix ADC, Cloud-native ALB/NLB). • Proven experience in cloud migration and hybrid interconnect design (VPN, Direct Connect, Cloud Connect). • Solid understanding of cloud networking and security models (VPC, IAM, SG/NACL, Private Link, encryption). • Advanced Linux administration and network troubleshooting experience. • Disaster Recovery planning and design experience — data replication, RTO/RPO strategy definition. • Strong experience with Kubernetes, container orchestration, and infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible). • Familiarity with monitoring and logging (Cloud Eye, ELK, Prometheus, Grafana). • Fluent in English; excellent communication and documentation skill. Key Responsibilities • Design and implement secure hybrid cloud architectures integrating on-prem infrastructure with cloud environments (Huawei Cloud, Google Cloud, Azure, AWS). • Define network topologies including VPCs, subnets, route tables, peering, NAT, and load balancer configurations. • Lead migration and interconnect setups, including VPN, Direct Connect, Cloud Connect, and SD-WAN architectures. • Design and implement Disaster Recovery (DR) strategies — replication, failover, and business continuity across multi-region/multi-cloud deployments. • Hands-on configuration and troubleshooting of LAN/WAN networks, switches, routers, and firewalls (Cisco, Palo Alto, Fortinet, F5). • Deploy and manage firewall rules, NAT, ACLs, and traffic segmentation (Zero Trust, micro-segmentation). • Configure and operate load balancers (F5, NLB, ALB) and Web Application Firewalls (WAF) to ensure application security and performance. • Implement VPNs (IPSec, SSL) and inter-cloud connectivity with high availability and encryption. • Integrate on-prem security layers with cloud-native solutions such as Cloud Firewall, IAM, and KMS. • Secure Kubernetes clusters — manage NetworkPolicies, PodSecurity, RBAC, and Service Mesh (Istio/Linkerd). • Implement DevSecOps practices — CI/CD pipeline hardening, vulnerability scanning, and IaC security validation. • Manage database security — encryption, access control, backup strategy, and DR configuration. Certifications (Preferred / Advantage) • Cloud Architect Certifications: Huawei Cloud Architect, Google Professional Cloud Architect, Azure Solutions Architect Expert, AWS Solutions Architect. • Network & Security Certifications: CCNP, Palo Alto PCNSE, Fortinet NSE4+, F5 Certified Administrator/Professional, CCSP, CISSP, or equivalent. • Kubernetes Certifications: CKA, CKAD, CKS. • Other Advantageous Certifications: ITIL, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer, CompTIA Security+, DevSecOps Foundation. Preferred Qualifications • Hands-on experience designing and deploying multi-cloud or hybrid solutions integrating private data centers with public clouds. • Experience implementing Zero Trust network architecture and micro-segmentation in hybrid environments. • Proven ability to lead migrations, handle network transformations, and collaborate with both infrastructure and application teams. • Strong understanding of DR drills, backup orchestration, and HA architecture patterns. • Exposure to SOC, SIEM, and log correlation (Splunk, QRadar, Cloud-native log platforms). Why Join Us? Lead strategic security-driven cloud transformation projects for top enterprises. Be at the intersection of networking, security, and cloud architecture, designing next-generation hybrid infrastructures. Collaborate with experts across multi-cloud environments and global teams. Shape how enterprises achieve secure, compliant, and high-performing cloud adoption.
