AWS Enterprise Architect

Must Have Technical/Functional Skills

• 15+ years of experience large scale modernization programs, large-scale integration platform modernization program, migrating from TIBCO middleware or other ESB Platforms to AWS cloud-native architecture

• Define the end-to-end target architecture for migration from TIBCO to AWS, covering: Integration patterns (API-led, event-driven, batch, file-based, orchestration), Application modernization strategy, Data architecture (transactional + analytical), Platform and infrastructure architecture

• Define architecture principles, standards, and guardrails for cloud-native development.

• Design the wave-based migration strategy (aligned to wave / multi-pattern approach).

• Co-existence between TIBCO and AWS during migration

• Define cutover strategy: Dual-run / shadowing approach, Zero-downtime migration, Rollback mechanisms
