Newfire is seeking a Solution Architect
What's the Project?
We are looking for a Solution Architect to own the technical architecture of a clinical surgical-video platform we're modernizing for a healthcare technology client. You'll stabilize a legacy on-premise system, design its migration to a modern AWS (EKS/S3) foundation and lead the execution to enable SaaS offering.
This is a hands-on-the-architecture, client-facing role for someone comfortable setting direction, writing the design docs a team builds against, and defending those decisions in front of a customer CTO
Responsibilities
Your day-to-day activities
- Own the end-to-end technical architecture for the platform as we stabilize it and move it to the cloud.
- Harden the existing on-premise deployment – improve fault detection and observability for video-capture hardware and streaming (RTSP) feeds, feeding an OpenTelemetry-based observability stack (SigNoz).
- Design and lead the migration from on-premise NFS storage to a hosted AWS environment (EKS/S3), preserving the existing video processing and anonymization pipeline and defining a clean on-prem/cloud boundary.
- Produce the cloud architecture design and data-migration plan, and the infrastructure-as-code foundation (Terraform, Kubernetes) behind it.
- Set architectural direction the delivery team executes against, and document decisions well enough that they don't need you in every one.
- Work directly with the client's engineering leadership as the technical point of authority; surface risk and technical debt early and reshape the plan collaboratively when needed.
Requirements
You’re a perfect match if you have
- Proven AWS solution architecture: EKS, S3, VPC, IAM, networking.
- Hands-on experience migrating production on-premise workloads to the cloud.
- Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, and production Kubernetes / container orchestration, Ansible, Swarm.
- Observability architecture: OpenTelemetry pipelines and metrics/traces/logs design (SigNoz, or equivalent such as Grafana/Prometheus/Tempo).
- Architectural fluency across a Django / React / Go stack.
- Strong design-documentation discipline; your deliverables set the direction a team builds on.
- Client-facing presence. You will hold technical direction with a customer CTO and their engineers.
- As a Senior team member, you will be expected to actively participate in our hiring processes by serving on interview panels for future roles across the company
- Please note that employment will be contingent upon providing documentation verifying your legal work authorization in the country of residence, in accordance with applicable law.
