Are you a Solution Architect with experience in Private Cloud, managed services, and outsourcing? Do you want to work on secure, scalable infrastructures for mission-critical applications of enterprise organizations? Then we have a great challenge for you!
This is what you will do
As a Solution Architect, you design secure and future-proof IT architectures for customers who host their mission-critical applications at Solvinity. You work closely with New Business, Account Management, and Solution Consultants and play an important role in translating customer needs into concrete technical solutions.
You design, implement, and optimize solutions in the field of Private Cloud infrastructure (storage, Compute, networking, and virtualization), managed services (Linux, Windows, middleware, databases, monitoring, and management tooling), enterprise application infrastructures, CI/CD platforms, Kubernetes environments, web platforms, and public cloud services such as Microsoft Azure.
• Translating customer needs into a suitable, scalable, and secure architecture.
• Designing Private Cloud and hybrid cloud solutions.
• Proactively identifying improvements within infrastructure and managed services.
• Advising customers on managed services, outsourcing, and Cloud strategies.
• Advising on security, service management, transition approaches, and business continuity.
• Calculating and responding to complex tenders and requests for quotation together with Customer Relations.
• Participating in bid teams and writing for strategic deals and tenders.
• Communicating architectural choices and solutions at both technical and management levels.
Security-by-design is central to your architectures. You design solutions where information security, risk distribution, and resilience are leading from the very first design. Think of zero-trust principles, strict network segmentation, logging & monitoring, and demonstrable control measures.
You work within environments involving complex decision-making, formal frameworks, and change processes. Advice is substantiated, traceable, and aimed at the continuity of service, even under political or social pressure.
Additionally, care in data processing and data sovereignty is essential. As an architect, you can explicitly account for where data resides, who has access, and how the setup meets compliance requirements. Cloud choices, tenant constructions, and management agreements are made from a position of control, ownership, and transparency. Your designs are not only technically correct but also legally and administratively defensible.
