Cloud Architect Internship
About this role
Overview: Multi-Tenant Cloud Infrastructure Design The Cloud Architect is responsible for designing, managing, and optimizing the entire multi-tenant cloud infrastructure that hosts our integrated supply chain e-commerce platform. While our current stack utilizes Oracle Cloud Free VMs, this role requires expertise in major public clouds (AWS/GCP/Azure) to architect scalable, resilient, cost-optimized, and compliant solutions that handle fluctuating e-commerce traffic, stable internal tool usage, and intensive AI agent compute demands.
Internship Details Duration: 3 months Start Date: Immediate Location: Remote Stipend: None initially. Based on your first-quarter performance, you may be offered a paid full-time opportunity, or even be absorbed directly by the client as an FTE. Key Responsibilities & Core Projects You will design and govern the platform's foundation, ensuring scalability and compliance across all environments. Cloud Architecture Design: Design and evolve the target cloud infrastructure (utilizing AWS, GCP, or Azure best practices) for maximum scalability, security, and high-availability, ensuring the platform can reliably support the MES $\rightarrow$ WMS $\rightarrow$ OMS flow.
Capacity Planning & Optimization: Plan and optimize resource allocation to effectively handle unpredictable e-commerce traffic spikes and the specific compute requirements for AI agent training and inference, driving cost efficiency. High Availability & Disaster Recovery (DR): Implement multi-region/multi-AZ high-availability architectures and define comprehensive Disaster Recovery (DR) strategies for all core services, including PostgreSQL 15 and Redis.
Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) Governance: Establish and enforce best practices for Terraform usage, ensuring configuration consistency, security compliance, and auditable infrastructure changes. Security & Compliance: Conduct regular security reviews of cloud configurations (e.g., IAM, VPC/VNet, Storage) and ensure architecture aligns with data residency and compliance requirements relevant to our multi-tenant operations.
Service Integration: Architect the network and service mesh overlay that integrates the containerized applications (Docker/Traefik) with external cloud services and the overall monitoring solution (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry). Required Technologies & Tools Candidates must possess deep architectural experience with public cloud providers and infrastructure automation: Cloud Providers: Expert-level proficiency in at least one major public cloud (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
