Platform Infrastructure Architect - Core Apps

OverviewPlatform Infrastructure ArchitectCore Apps📍 Location: Hyderabad, India | RemoteExperience : 7 + years of experience in Infrastructure EngineeringAbout the RoleThe Platform Infrastructure Architect designs, standardizes, and continuously improves the core infrastructure platforms that support enterprise applications, operational services, and business-critical environments. This role provides technical leadership for operating systems, virtual machine templates, monitoring and observability platforms, database infrastructure, and automation frameworks.The ideal candidate has strong infrastructure engineering experience, thinks strategically about architecture, creates clear documentation, applies security best practices, and can turn operational needs into scalable, reliable, and supportable platform standards.Your Role Responsibilities? Here's What You'll Do. Lead the design and improvement of automation solutions using PowerShell, Ansible, and Python that reduce manual work, improve consistency, and strengthen configuration control across enterprise infrastructure platforms. Design and maintain enterprise standards for Linux and Windows Server operating systems, virtual machine templates, baseline configurations, lifecycle management, and patch readiness across production, disaster recovery, and lab environments. Create scalable platform architecture patterns that improve reliability, security, efficiency, and consistency; support change management by ensuring infrastructure changes are documented, assessed for risk, communicated, tested, and aligned with operational standards. Provide technical leadership for monitoring and observability tools including Zabbix, LogicMonitor, and PagerDuty; improve coverage, alert quality, escalation workflows, and operational response across all platform environments. Work with services, security, application, and operations teams to define platform requirements, document reference architectures, and guide implementation decisions; create and maintain documentation, runbooks, architecture diagrams, build standards, and operational procedures. Support database infrastructure for SQL Server and Oracle in production and disaster recovery environments, including availability, recovery, monitoring, capacity planning, and operational standards; promote security, compliance, resilience, and cost-conscious engineering throughout the platform lifecycle.
