1.3 Strategic Importance of the Role
The Solution Architect (RHEL & Cloud Specialist) occupies a pivotal role within our Technology Office, serving as the bridge between high-level business strategy and technical execution. As our infrastructure transitions toward a sophisticated hybrid-cloud model, the strategic governance of our Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) estate becomes paramount for maintaining security, compliance, and operational reliability. This role is not merely advisory;

it is a hands‑on leadership position tasked with architecting the automated scaffolds that support our entire digital product portfolio.
Executive

Summary:

We are seeking a proactive technical leader who refuses to accept "status quo" system inefficiencies. The ideal candidate will design and govern resilient solutions that utilize Ansible for massive-scale automation, ensuring our hybrid‑cloud platforms are self‑healing, secure, and performant. You will be expected to guide engineering teams through complex migrations while remaining deeply connected to the code and configurations that define our environment.
In the context of the 2026 technology landscape, where cloud costs and sovereign data requirements are increasingly complex, this Architect will ensure our RHEL foundation provides the necessary abstraction and stability to move workloads between on‑premise virtualization and public cloud providers (AWS, Azure, or GCP) with zero friction. The successful candidate will be a champion of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and CI/CD, moving us closer to a fully autonomous data center vision.

Key Responsibilities & Strategic Objectives
The Solution Architect (RHEL & Cloud Specialist) is a high‑impact role designed to steer the technical direction of the organizations infrastructure. The incumbent is responsible for ensuring that all technological solutions are not only fit for purpose today but are engineered to scale for the demands of 2026 and beyond. This involves a dual focus on high-level strategic vision and deep‑dive technical implementation, particularly within the Red Hat ecosystem and hyperscale cloud environments.
2.1 Architectural Design & Strategy
Design and maintain comprehensive end‑to‑end solution architectures that integrate on‑premise data centers with public cloud platforms, ensuring seamless workload portability and high availability.
Develop and document scalable, secure, and resilient architectural blueprints for hybrid‑cloud deployments, utilizing RHEL as the primary operating system foundation.
Translate complex business requirements and organizational goals into detailed technical specifications and infrastructure designs.
Evaluate and select appropriate virtualization technologies (VMware, KVM) and cloud services (AWS, Azure, or GCP) that align with the organizations long‑term cost‑efficiency and performance targets.
Architect disaster recovery and business continuity solutions that ensure data integrity and minimal downtime across geographically dispersed sites.
Collaborate with Enterprise Architects to ensure solution designs remain compliant with the broader organizational technology roadmap and security policies.
2.2 Automation & Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
Spearhead the transition to a fully automated infrastructure environment, reducing manual intervention and human error through robust Infrastructure as Code practices.
Architect enterprise‑wide automation frameworks using Ansible for the consistent configuration, provisioning, and management of RHEL environments.
Define and enforce standards for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform or Cloud Formation to manage multi‑cloud resource life cycles.
Oversee the development of automated compliance and security hardening playbooks to ensure all systems meet internal and regulatory standards upon deployment.
Design automated patching and update workflows that leverage Red Hat Satellite or Ansible Automation Platform to maintain fleet‑wide system health.
