Own the end-to-end technical architecture for the platform as we stabilize it and move it to the cloud.

Harden the existing on-premise deployment – improve fault detection and observability for video-capture hardware and streaming (RTSP) feeds, feeding an OpenTelemetry-based observability stack (SigNoz).

Design and lead the migration from on-premise NFS storage to a hosted AWS environment (EKS/S3), preserving the existing video processing and anonymization pipeline and defining a clean on-prem/cloud boundary.

Produce the cloud architecture design and data-migration plan, and the infrastructure-as-code foundation (Terraform, Kubernetes) behind it.

Set architectural direction the delivery team executes against, and document decisions well enough that they don't need you in every one.

Work directly with the client's engineering leadership as the technical point of authority; surface risk and technical debt early and reshape the plan collaboratively when needed.

What’s Required

Proven AWS solution architecture: EKS, S3, VPC, IAM, networking.

Hands-on experience migrating production on-premise workloads to the cloud.

Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, and production Kubernetes / container orchestration, Ansible, Swarm.

Observability architecture: OpenTelemetry pipelines and metrics/traces/logs design (SigNoz, or equivalent such as Grafana/Prometheus/Tempo).

Architectural fluency across a Django / React / Go stack.

Strong design-documentation discipline; your deliverables set the direction a team builds on.

Client-facing presence. You will hold technical direction with a customer CTO and their engineers.

What’s Preferred

Real-time video / streaming media infrastructure (RTSP, media pipelines, hardware encoders).

Edge / on-premise device fleet management.

Healthcare or clinical data governance (PHI handling, data-residency and customer-approval constraints).

Ansible for on-premise host configuration.
