Hi There,

This is Amanda Milan from CI&T!

We are looking for a Principal Cloud Infrastructure Architect to lead a large-scale transformation of a client’s infrastructure operations into a modern, federated platform engineering model. You will help design and establish the target operating model while enabling a large group of engineers across multiple product teams to become self-sufficient in cloud infrastructure usage.
The role requires advanced or fluent English to collaborate with distributed teams across the US, Brazil, London, and India, as well as the ability to travel to London for periodic on-site engagements.
