Enterprise Architect

Be the senior technical partner for our largest customers. You'll help them design Kubernetes platforms on Tantilium Cloud Runner that are secure, reliable and cost-effective.

Enterprises rarely start from a blank page. They have existing clusters, security requirements, compliance obligations and teams with strong opinions. Rolling out a new platform means understanding all of that and designing something that fits.

As an Enterprise Architect, you'll lead the technical side of our most important customer relationships. You'll run discovery, design target architectures, guide rollouts, and be the person a customer's platform lead calls when the stakes are high. You'll also take what you learn back to our product and engineering teams.

Responsibilities

• Lead technical discovery with enterprise customers and turn their requirements into a clear architecture and rollout plan
• Design multi-cluster, multi-tenant setups covering networking, identity, security, observability and cost
• Support sales on complex deals, from technical evaluation through to security and architecture reviews
• Run workshops and architecture reviews with customer engineering teams
• Write reference architectures and guides that the rest of the team and our customers can reuse
• Act as the voice of enterprise customers in product and engineering discussions

Requirements

• Extensive experience as a solutions architect, platform engineer or similar, designing systems at enterprise scale
• Deep, hands-on knowledge of Kubernetes and the surrounding cloud-native ecosystem
• Production experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure or GCP)
• A strong understanding of security and compliance in regulated environments, including identity, network policy, secrets and auditing
• Experience with infrastructure as code using tools like Terraform
• The ability to explain technical decisions clearly to both engineers and executives

Nice to have

• Kubernetes or cloud certifications such as CKA, CKS or a professional-level cloud certification
• Experience with GitOps, service meshes or multi-tenancy tools like vCluster
• A background in customer-facing technical roles at an infrastructure or developer tools company
