We are seeking an experienced and motivated S3 Storage Architect to design, build, and evolve object storage services across hybrid environments (on-premises and public cloud). The successful candidate will play a key role in defining and implementing scalable, secure, and high-performance storage architectures, leveraging S3-compatible technologies such as Cloudian, and integrating them with enterprise and cloud-native services.
Key Responsibilities
Architecture & Design: Define the architecture for S3-compatible object storage services supporting both on-prem and cloud-based workloads (AWS, Azure, etc.).
Hybrid Storage Strategy: Design solutions that enable seamless integration between datacenter and cloud object storage.
Service Implementation: Lead the deployment and configuration of object storage clusters (e.g., Cloudian HyperStore), ensuring availability, durability, and scalability.
Automation & Orchestration: Implement Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) practices using Terraform, Ansible, or equivalent to streamline provisioning and lifecycle management.
Monitoring & Optimization: Use tools like HyperIQ or Prometheus/Grafana to monitor usage, detect anomalies, and optimize performance.
Security & Compliance: Apply data protection standards, encryption policies, and access control measures aligned with EU regulations and customer expectations.
Disaster Recovery: Design and validate backup and DR strategies using object storage features like replication and versioning.
Integration Support: Collaborate with development, operations, and infrastructure teams to enable storage consumption via APIs, GitOps pipelines, and Kubernetes platforms.
Documentation: Maintain architecture blueprints, SOPs, and operational documentation for service ownership and audit readiness.
