• Architect cloud-native backend systems optimized for scalability, resilience, and cost-efficiency. • Define and promote cloud-optimized design patterns such as microservices, event-driven architecture, service mesh, and containerized workloads. • Ensure backend systems integrate cleanly with microfrontend architectures through well-designed APIs and edge services. • Create architectural blueprints, system diagrams, and technical standards for cloud-native platforms. • Champion an API-first design methodology, ensuring all services expose clear, versioned, documented, and secure APIs. • Collaborate with frontend/microfrontend teams to define and evolve API contracts that ensure consistency across the platform. • Implement API governance, gateways, and standards to support scale and maintainability. • Design and maintain modular, scalable microservices aligned with business domains (DDD, bounded contexts). • Optimize backend performance, latency, scalability, and fault tolerance. • Provide architectural guidance to backend teams around service decomposition, data ownership, caching strategies, and observability. • Develop and maintain the multi-cloud architecture strategy (AWS/GCP), focusing on resilience, cost optimization, performance, and security. • Design and document scalable, reliable, and secure cloud environments for new and existing platform components. • Evaluate and recommend new cloud technologies and services to improve platform capabilities and operational efficiency. • Collaborate with engineering and product teams to translate business requirements into robust, scalable cloud infrastructure designs. • Lead the adoption and continuous improvement of Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) practices using tools like Terraform or Pulumi. • Oversee and mentor teams in the deployment, monitoring, and maintenance of cloud resources and services (e.g., Kubernetes, serverless components, databases, networking). • Establish and enforce best practices for configuration management, continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD), and automated provisioning/de-provisioning. • Implement comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting strategies to ensure high visibility into system health and performance. • Embed security principles and controls into the cloud architecture from the initial design phase (Security by Design). • Work closely with the Security team to ensure all cloud infrastructure meets Bugcrowd's stringent security standards and compliance requirements (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001). • Implement and manage cloud security tools, identity and access management (IAM) policies, and network security controls (VPCs, firewalls, security groups). • Act as the subject matter expert for all cloud-related infrastructure and architecture decisions. • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to development and operations teams on cloud technologies and best practices. • Drive standardization across infrastructure services and deployment methodologies.
