DevOps Solution Architect

Remote
Full-time / B2B
Lead / Principal
About The Role
We're hiring a DevOps Solution Architect on behalf of our client, a technology consulting company delivering DevOps, cloud, and security solutions across multiple international projects, to join their team.
You'll provide architectural leadership and technical oversight across several client engagements at once, working closely with Client Delivery Managers and Project Engineers on technical discovery, solution design, DevSecOps strategy, delivery reviews, and complex technical escalations.
This is a client-facing leadership role that blends solution architecture, DevSecOps, technical consulting, presales, mentoring, and delivery governance — not a traditional people-management position or a full-time engineering assignment on a single project.
Key Responsibilities
Lead technical discovery, assessments, and architecture workshops
Translate business requirements into secure, scalable, reliable, and cost-effective cloud solutions
Design Azure, hybrid-cloud, DevSecOps, platform, networking, security, and operational architectures
Define technical approaches, implementation roadmaps, dependencies, assumptions, and risks
Prepare and validate technical backlogs, estimates, acceptance criteria, and delivery plans
Review architecture, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD pipelines, security controls, and key deliverables
Ensure solutions meet security, reliability, scalability, observability, compliance, and production-readiness requirements
Guide and mentor Project Engineers without taking over their day-to-day implementation ownership
Support engineers with complex technical decisions, blockers, and escalations
Participate in presales, proposal preparation, technical estimation, and client presentations
Act as a trusted technical advisor to CTOs, engineering teams, architects, and security stakeholders
Develop reusable reference architectures, Terraform modules, pipeline templates, standards, and delivery practices
Support technical interviews, onboarding, and knowledge-sharing activities
Identify modernization, automation, security, reliability, and cost-optimization opportunities
What We're Looking For
Must Have
Strong professional experience in DevOps, DevSecOps, Cloud, Platform Engineering, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering
Previous experience as a DevOps Architect, Cloud Architect, Solution Architect, Technical Lead, or similar senior technical role
Strong hands-on knowledge of Microsoft Azure
Experience with Terraform and/or Bicep
Strong knowledge of CI/CD, preferably GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, or GitLab CI/CD
Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and preferably AKS
Good understanding of cloud networking, identity, RBAC, secrets management, monitoring, backup, and disaster recovery
Practical knowledge of cloud security, policy-as-code, vulnerability scanning, and secure software delivery
Experience with architecture reviews, technical assessments, estimation, and production-readiness validation
Strong client-facing, consulting, presentation, and technical documentation skills
Ability to mentor engineers and lead technical decisions across multiple projects
Professional English communication skills
Native Ukrainian speaker
Nice to Have
Experience in IT consulting, outsourcing, or managed services
Experience supporting several client projects simultaneously
Knowledge of AWS or GCP
Experience with presales and proposal preparation
Microsoft Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, security, or architecture certifications
Experience in regulated or security-sensitive environments
Why You'll Love This Role
Architectural ownership across multiple international client projects, not a single stack
A client-facing leadership role that mixes strategy, hands-on architecture, and mentoring
Direct exposure to CTOs, engineering leaders, and security stakeholders
Freedom to build reusable reference architectures and shape delivery standards
Full-time B2B engagement with remote flexibility
