IC Markets is seeking a highly skilled Cloud Infrastructure Architect to design, implement, and optimize a secure, scalable, and event-driven cloud infrastructure exclusively within the AWS ecosystem. This role involves architecting robust infrastructure solutions, designing event-based architectures, and managing a team of Cloud Engineers. The architect will also lead the migration of legacy systems to AWS, ensuring seamless integration, performance, and security.

The ideal candidate will possess expertise in AWS services, event-driven design patterns, real-time data streaming, and cloud-native architectures. With a focus on automation, cost optimization, and operational excellence, this role will support IC Markets' mission-critical trading platforms.

Key Responsibilities:
  1. Cloud Architecture and Design:
    1. Architect, design, and implement highly scalable and fault-tolerant infrastructure on AWS to support global trading operations.
    2. Design event-driven architectures that utilize AWS EventBridge, SNS, SQS, Kinesis, and Lambda to enable real-time and asynchronous communication across systems.
    3. Develop robust architectures integrating containerized environments (e.g., EKS, Fargate, Docker) and serverless computing models.
  2. Event-Based Architectures:
    1. Develop and implement event-driven systems to enable decoupled, scalable, and resilient services.
    2. Design real-time data pipelines using Kinesis Streams, Kinesis Firehose, and Kinesis Data Analytics to process large-scale streaming data.
    3. Implement pub/sub models, ensuring reliability and scalability for asynchronous workflows.
    4. Leverage EventBridge to orchestrate complex workflows and integrate AWS services with third-party applications.
  3. Networking and Connectivity:
    1. Design and optimize networking setups, including VPC configurations, Direct Connect, Transit Gateway, and hybrid cloud integrations.
    2. Implement advanced network security solutions, including AWS WAF, Shield, NACLs, VPC Endpoints, and PrivateLink.
    3. Ensure low-latency, secure connectivity for trading systems using multi-region architectures and cross-region replication strategies.
  4. Automation and Operational Efficiency:
    1. Automate provisioning, scaling, and configuration using tools like Ansible, Chef alongside native AWS automation capabilities.
    2. Drive CI/CD workflows for infrastructure and application deployments, integrating with tools like AWS CodePipeline and CodeBuild.
  5. Performance, Security, and Cost Optimization:
    1. Optimize cloud resource utilization for cost efficiency while maintaining high performance, leveraging AWS Cost Explorer, Trusted Advisor, and custom monitoring dashboards.
    2. Implement and enforce security best practices, including IAM role-based access control, encryption standards (e.g., KMS), and compliance with frameworks like SOC 2 and ISO 27001.
    3. Monitor and fine-tune system performance using CloudWatch, X-Ray, and third-party tools like Prometheus and Grafana.
  6. Team Leadership and Collaboration:
    1. Manage and mentor a team of Cloud Engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence and innovation.
    2. Collaborate with DevOps, security, and software engineering teams to align infrastructure design with business goals and application requirements.
    3. Act as a technical advisor to stakeholders, presenting architecture proposals and strategies in technical and business contexts.
  7. Monitoring, Incident Response, and Disaster Recovery:
    1. Establish robust monitoring frameworks to proactively identify and resolve issues in event-driven and traditional architectures.
    2. Design and implement disaster recovery (DR) strategies, leveraging AWS Backup, EBS snapshots, and RDS Multi-AZ configurations.
    3. Develop and maintain incident response plans to ensure business continuity in the face of outages or security breaches.
