Position Description
- The infrastructure product group offers data center services that are provided via a software stack for other product lines within the program. The Observability Architect is member of the Infrastructure Architecture team.
- The architect is responsible for aligning with the strategy and vision of the Lead Infrastructure Architect and with other architects in the group (ie, network, storage, software architects).
- The Observability Architect is responsible for architecture of the infrastructure wide observability platform of which provides observability (metric, events, alerting, remediation) for the core infrastructure technology teams - Network, Compute, Virtualization, Storage Security and Software, and for products provided to EDP Infrastructure customers. The infrastructure observability platform must also integrate with the EDP wide observability platform which encompasses other EDP technical towers (k8s, DevOps, Data, IAM, etc). The architect does this in conjunction and through consultation with the other infrastructure technology architects and the lead Infrastructure Architect.
- The EDP project is in a startup mode and requires that architects are also engineers, meaning that the architects can understand engineering problems and solutions within their architecture space. They are also expected to be able to provide POCs of their solutions working alongside technical engineers to prove solutions are viable. The architect must also be cost conscious, have a holistic approach and be aware of what the impact of the solution is short term and long term to both overall strategy, engineering and customer products.
- Within the Infrastructure product line, the engineering target is to be fully automated throughout any internal or external product life cycle. The goal is to build a fully automated environment where all steps after physical installation will be automated. Therefore, the architects and engineers require the ability to align with the IaaS team who implement the steps to automate the environment.
