The Cloud Capability is the think-tank and engine of Credera’s cloud expertise. We’re experts in all things cloud, ranging from cloud-native application architecture to cloud migrations and advisory.  We leverage cloud-native technologies in AWS, Azure, and GCP to create solutions for our clients. Within the Cloud Capability, you may work in the following areas: cloud-native development, cloud platform engineering, cloud data ingestion, cloud migration & adoption, or cloud strategy.

As a Cloud Architect, you will lead project-based teams while serving in a client-facing role. You will act as the primary architect and technical lead on projects to scope and estimate work streams, architect and model technical solutions to meet business requirements, and serve as a technical expert in client communications.

    • Cloud Platform Engineering – We build landing zones and account structures. We leverage IAC tools such as CloudFormation and Terraform to provision cloud infrastructure in an automated and repeatable fashion. We provision users, monitor budget and cost, automate security/compliance checks, and perform Well-Architected Reviews to ensure best practices are followed.
    • Cloud Data Ingestion – We ingest data into the cloud from global sources in a fast and cost-efficient manner. Working with Data Engineers, we support architectures that transform the data by leveraging cloud-native services such as AWS S3 and Athena.
    • Cloud Migration & Adoption- We advise clients on how to efficiently move workloads to the cloud (MRA/MRP), platform workload discovery, and bundling and guide clients around common adoption hurdles.
    • Cloud Strategy – We advise on how cloud may impact all areas of the business, from App Dev to Operations to Talent Acquisition. We advise and train our clients to work in a cloud-first environment, helping establish a Cloud COE at the client and recommend organization best practices to leverage the cloud at scale.
