Solution Architect - Singapore - T-SYSTEMS SINGAPORE PTE. LTD.

Description

• Cloud Infrastructure Design: Design scalable, secure, and cost-effective cloud infrastructure solutions on the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to meet business requirements.
• Compute Architecture: Architect compute solutions using GCP services such as Compute Engine, Kubernetes Engine, App Engine, and Cloud Functions, considering factors like performance, scalability, and fault tolerance.
• Networking Architecture: Design network architectures on GCP, including virtual private clouds (VPCs), subnets, firewall rules, VPNs, and interconnects, to ensure secure and efficient communication between resources.
• Storage Architecture: Develop storage solutions using GCP services such as Cloud Storage, Cloud SQL, Bigtable, and Firestore, considering requirements for data durability, availability, and performance.
• Identity and Access Management (IAM): Design IAM policies and roles to enforce least privilege access controls and ensure compliance with security requirements and regulatory standards.
• Security Architecture: Implement security controls and best practices to protect cloud infrastructure, including encryption, key management, identity federation, threat detection, and incident response.
• Monitoring and Logging: Set up monitoring and logging solutions using GCP tools like Stackdriver to monitor the health, performance, and security of infrastructure components and applications.
• High Availability and Disaster Recovery: Architect solutions for high availability and disaster recovery using GCP features like regionalization, load balancing, autoscaling, and multi-region deployments.
• Cost Optimization: Optimize cloud costs by right-sizing resources, implementing cost allocation tags, leveraging committed use discounts, and optimizing storage and networking costs.
• Automation and Orchestration: Implement infrastructure as code (IaC) using tools like Terraform, Deployment Manager, or Google Cloud Deployment Manager to automate the provisioning and management of infrastructure resources.
• Collaboration and Communication: Collaborate with cross-functional teams including developers, DevOps engineers, security specialists, and business stakeholders to understand requirements and communicate architectural decisions.
• Documentation and Best Practices: Document infrastructure architectures, configurations, and best practices, and provide guidance and training to team members on GCP infrastructure-related topics.
