Solution Architect for IT Consulting Start-up

As a hands-on and strategic Solution/Technical Architect, you will be responsible for leading the design and implementation of AWS-based integration solutions for large-scale enterprise environments. Your focus will be on building scalable, secure, and high-performing architectures to connect ERP systems (JD Edwards), eCommerce platforms, PIM/DAM ecosystems, and external partners using AWS-native services, real-time APIs, and EDI workflows. You will collaborate closely with offshore and onshore teams to deliver modern integration solutions with architectural rigor and excellence. Your key responsibilities will include designing and implementing integration architectures on AWS, including data pipelines, APIs, and event-driven workflows. You will lead real-time and batch integrations across ERP (JDE), eCommerce, PIM/DAM, and external partner systems, utilizing AWS-native services such as API Gateway, Lambda, EventBridge, Step Functions, SQS/SNS, and S3 to build modular, cloud-native solutions. Additionally, you will define interface specifications, architecture diagrams, deployment models, and technical documentation to ensure that technical solutions meet performance, scalability, security, and compliance standards. Supporting EDI-style integrations using custom services or third-party tools hosted on AWS will also be within your responsibilities, aligning with Boomi, MuleSoft, or Informatica-style EIB architecture patterns. To be successful in this role, you must have at least 10 years of experience in solution architecture and enterprise integration, with a minimum of 3 years of strong hands-on experience with AWS. Deep expertise in AWS-native integration services such as Lambda, Step Functions, API Gateway, EventBridge, CloudWatch, S3, and IAM is essential. Proven experience in integrating with JD Edwards (JDE) and commerce platforms, a solid understanding of event-driven architecture, serverless patterns, and API lifecycle management, and strong knowledge of message transformation (XML, JSON, XSLT), asynchronous messaging, and security enforcement are also required. Excellent communication skills and the ability to document and present technical solutions clearly are crucial for this role. In return, we offer you a lead architecture role on mission-critical AWS-based integration programs, exposure to complex enterprise modernization projects across retail and digital commerce, a clear career path toward Enterprise Architect or Platform Practice Lead roles, and an engineering-first culture focused on quality, innovation, and platform excellence.,
