  • Strong architecture experience in enterprise resilience, disaster recovery, high availability, and failover design.
  • Knowledge of active-active, active-passive, multi-site, and multi-region architecture patterns.
  • Ability to assess end-to-end application, infrastructure, network, data, integration, and cloud dependencies.
  • Experience defining RTO/RPO-aligned architecture and analysing recovery failure modes.
