Can you lead a migration to a private cloud? We are looking for a Senior Freelance Infrastructure / Solution Architect to support a strategic private-cloud platform initiative. This is a hands-on architecture role for someone who combines strong infrastructure engineering experience with senior-level solution architecture capabilities. You will be responsible for translating business and technical requirements into robust infrastructure solutions, producing high-quality architecture documentation, evaluating technology and vendor options, and supporting governance and procurement activities. The organisation is currently progressing through the procurement phase of a private-cloud platform, with an RFP potentially being launched in the coming weeks. The ideal candidate will therefore be comfortable operating at both technical and architectural level, while also bringing experience with vendor selection, RFPs and formal documentation. You will work closely with infrastructure, cloud, application and project stakeholders to understand the existing environment and define the future-state architecture, including the migration path from existing on-premises infrastructure towards a private-cloud platform.
RoleKey responsibilities
- Design and document end-to-end infrastructure and solution architectures, including comprehensive High-Level Designs (HLDs).
- Translate business, application and infrastructure requirements into scalable, secure and maintainable technical solutions.
- Analyse the existing infrastructure landscape and define target-state architectures for private-cloud adoption.
- Support the migration of on-premises infrastructure towards private-cloud environments, taking into account dependencies, availability, security and operational requirements.
- Evaluate and compare different cloud, infrastructure and technology vendors, providing clear technical recommendations and trade-off analyses.
- Contribute to the private-cloud platform procurement and RFP process, including technical requirements, evaluation criteria and vendor responses.
- Review and challenge proposed technical solutions, ensuring alignment with architectural principles and organisational standards.
- Produce and maintain architecture documentation, diagrams, technical specifications, decision records and other governance artefacts.
- Support architecture governance processes and ensure that solutions are properly documented, reviewed and approved.
- Work closely with infrastructure engineers and delivery teams to ensure that architectural designs are realistic, implementable and operationally sound.
- Provide hands-on technical input where required and remain sufficiently close to the implementation to validate architectural decisions.
- Collaborate with application, infrastructure, security, networking and operations teams in a complex Linux and Java-oriented environment.
- Present architectural proposals and recommendations to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
