RESPONSIBILITIES AND ASSIGNMENTS

Pearson seeks a Cloud Architect or senior Cloud Engineer to define and evolve Pearson-aligned cloud standards and Terraform patterns encoded for Architectural Fitness Agents (AFAs). Governance should run continuously in the IDE and in CI, not as static hand-written documents. You extend the Terraform-based Azure and Kubernetes (AKS) footprint (including MiniPrem-style GPU workloads on AKS where applicable), align CI/CD and security with enterprise expectations, and harden AFA rules, skills, and sub-agents that generate or review infrastructure as code. Delivery is artifact-driven: versioned Git content, diagram-as-code, architecture decision records, and machine-checkable standards used with Cursor and Claude Code. Most application code you support is Python; you also work across stacks for CI and standards (polyglot).

• Define, encode, and harden Pearson-aligned cloud and IaC standards as versioned Git artifacts: Cursor rules, agent skills, reference Terraform modules, and scaffolds delivered through AFAs (passive rules at edit time; on-demand skills for design, remediation, and architectural verdict), including Internal Developer Platform and CI/CD guardrails for agent-assisted changes.
• Express platform and operations context as diagram-as-code (for example Mermaid or Structurizr) and ADRs in the repository—linked to AFA install and assessment—not unmanaged documents outside Git.
• Own Terraform on Azure for AKS and adjacent services (networking, identity, secrets, storage, monitoring): module boundaries, state and pinning, drift control, tagging, environments, and cost attribution.
• Align CI/CD with enterprise change control—pipelines, promotion, plan/apply, rollback—and wire in policy-as-code, drift detection, secret scanning, and compliance tags.
• Implement least-privilege Azure RBAC, managed identities, Key Vault, and network controls; keep secrets out of source; support rotation and audit-ready evidence in Git.
• Shape AKS patterns: node pools and upgrades (including GPU pools, device plugins, and time-slicing or equivalent where used), failure modes and capacity, observability hooks in modules and AFA patterns, and consistent Terraform/Helm touchpoints for SKUs, labels/taints, and add-ons.
• Produce handover-ready repository bundles for receiving squads—deploy, upgrade, and rollback views, ownership matrix, operational artifacts—and define readiness criteria with DevOps.

REQUIREMENTS AND QUALIFICATIONS

Essential technical skills

• Cursor (Agent mode, rules, skills) and Claude Code or comparable agentic CLI for day-to-day IaC and platform work; ability to author, test, and ship AFA artifacts (.mdc rules, markdown skills, sub-agent prompts) for Terraform and platform tasks.
• Strong Terraform on Azure (providers, modules, workspaces or equivalent, state) and deep Azure: AKS, Virtual Networks, Managed Identity, RBAC, Key Vault, Azure Monitor, subscription and resource group governance.
• Strong CI/CD: enterprise pipelines, gates, secrets in CI, safe promotion; Kubernetes platform operations (node pools, upgrades, networking, labels/taints).
• Strong Python for automation, CI integration, and policy checks against the squad’s mainly Python application code; polyglot literacy to follow TypeScript, Go, .NET, Bash, or other languages in adjacent repositories or runtimes.

Agile mindset and soft skills

• Prefer incremental improvement to big-bang rewrites; deliver small, verifiable changes.
• Collaborative technical leadership with architects, developers, security, and DevOps peers; communicate through versioned artifacts, ADRs, and agent-friendly rule updates.
• Stay organized and accountable for standards others consume via AFAs.
• Treat governance as a versioned product: rules and skills evolve in Git and propagate on install, not as one-off documents.

Desirable additional skills

• Hands-on with the architectural-fitness-agents package layout, install scripts, and contribution model.
• GPU on Kubernetes: NVIDIA device plugins, GPU Operator, time-slicing or MIG, NC-series on Azure.
• Helm or cluster add-ons alongside Terraform (cloud vs cluster separation).
• Policy-as-code (Azure Policy, OPA/Gatekeeper) and FinOps (tags, right-sizing, reservations).
• Regulated or large-enterprise compliance and standardization at scale.
