- Analyze assessment data to categorize workloads using migration strategies (rehost, re-platform, refactor, retire, retain)
- Build TCO models and business cases to justify cloud migration investments
Migration Planning & Design:
- Design target cloud architectures based on client requirements, compliance needs, and performance objectives
- Develop migration roadmaps with phased approaches, timelines, and resource estimates
- Create landing zone designs with multi-account/subscription structures, network topology, and security baselines
- Design hybrid connectivity solutions for on-premises integration during and post-migration
- Document migration patterns, cutover plans, and rollback procedures for each workload wave
Hands-On Migration Execution:
- Execute server, database, and storage migrations using cloud-native and third-party migration tools
- Configure replication, perform testing, and validate migrated workloads in target environments
- Lead cutover activities during maintenance windows, coordinating with application and infrastructure teams
- Troubleshoot migration issues in real-time and implement fixes to keep projects on track
- Perform post-migration validation: application functionality, performance benchmarking, and security posture verification
Architecture & Infrastructure Delivery:
- Build and deploy cloud infrastructure using IaC tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.)
- Implement network connectivity: VPNs, dedicated interconnects, transit gateways, and DNS integration
- Configure security controls: IAM policies, encryption, logging, monitoring, and compliance frameworks

- Work with development teams to refactor legacy applications for cloud-native patterns
- Implement cost optimization strategies: rightsizing, reserved capacity, autoscaling, and storage tiering
- Optimize performance through caching, CDN integration, and database tuning
- Establish monitoring, alerting, and operational dashboards for migrated environments
Client Engagement & Knowledge Transfer:
- Act as primary technical point of contact for client stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle
- Present architecture designs, migration plans, and progress updates to technical and executive audiences

- Create documentation: architecture diagrams, standard operating procedures, and operational runbooks
- Deliver knowledge transfer sessions to upskill client teams for ongoing cloud operations
Collaboration & Governance:
- Collaborate with project managers to track deliverables, timelines, and risks
- Work with security and compliance teams to meet regulatory requirements and internal policies
- Coordinate with vendors and third-party teams for integration and migration tooling
- Participate in design reviews and provide technical guidance to junior team members
- Stay current with cloud platform updates, migration tools, and industry best practices
Post-Migration Support:
- Provide hypercare support during stabilization period following production cutovers
- Address post-migration issues, performance bottlenecks, and optimization opportunities
- Conduct post-implementation reviews to capture lessons learned and improvement areas
- Hand off operational responsibilities to client teams or managed services providers with proper documentation
