Job description

Cloud Platform Architect - SaaS & IDP Focus

I'm currently supporting a client in the networking tech space, seeking a Cloud Platform Architect to lead the design of a cloud-native, multi-tenant SaaS platform and internal developer tooling. This is a strategic, hands‑on contract role ideal for someone who can balance architectural clarity with delivery momentum.

About the Engagement

You will be working with a high‑trust, engineering‑led team building a SaaS solution for managing and monitoring networking devices. The platform is microservices‑based, Kubernetes‑native, and designed for scale, security, and observability. Youll also lead the buildout of an Internal Developer Platform (IDP) to streamline provisioning, secrets management, service mesh, SSO integration, and centralised metrics.

What You Will Be Driving

  • Architecture for scalable, secure, multi‑tenant SaaS
  • IDP features : rapid environment provisioning, automated cert / secrets rotation, service mesh, SSO (OIDC / SAML), centralised logging
  • Cloud standards, patterns, and best practices
  • Platform scalability, tooling selection, and DevOps workflows
  • Multi‑tenant security and compliance
  • Mentoring engineers in Kubernetes, GitOps, and cloud‑native tooling

Toolkit

  • Kubernetes : Production‑grade ops (upgrades, scaling, DR)
  • AWS : EKS, RDS, IAM, CloudWatch; multi‑cloud familiarity welcome
  • IaC : Terraform, OpenTofu, Pulumi
  • CI / CD & GitOps : GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, ArgoCD, Flux
  • Networking & Security : VPCs, ingress, RBAC, pod security, zero‑trust
  • Observability : Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Jaeger, OpenTelemetry
  • Secrets & Identity : Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, OAuth2, OIDC
  • Bonus Experience

  • CNCF ecosystem : Crossplane, Kyverno, OPA, Backstage
  • IDP design and developer experience
  • Networking products or telemetry pipelines
  • FinOps and SaaS compliance (ISO27001, SOC2)
  • DR, HA, and scaling strategies
  • Contract Details

  • Type : Contractor (full‑time preferred, part‑time negotiable)
  • Duration : 2 - 6 months
  • Location : On‑site or remote‑friendly
  • If you are a pragmatic architect with a hands‑on mindset and a track record of delivering impact in complex cloud environments, we would love to hear from you. This is a great opportunity to shape platform foundations while collaborating with a thoughtful, delivery‑focused team. Reach out via CodeMatch to express interest or request more detail.
