Integrate observability tools with APIs and enterprise systems (e.g., MuleSoft).
Define and enforce AWS governance models, including tagging strategies, policy enforcement (SCPs, IAM, guardrails), and cost governance (FinOps).
Champion DevSecOps practices across AWS environments.
Evaluate new AWS services and capabilities to maintain modern, future-ready architecture.
Produce AWS-focused architecture documentation, including reference diagrams, technical runbooks, and standards and patterns.
Lead workshops and knowledge-sharing sessions to enable teams on AWS best practices.
