About the Role

As a Private Cloud Platform Architect, you will work on the front lines with strategic enterprise customers and Systems Integrators, driving the architectural validation and successful design of VCF deployments. This is a hands-on, architect-level, customer-facing role focused on designing software-defined data centers (SDDC), integrating physical-to-virtual network fabrics, and guiding clients through their data center modernization journeys.

Responsibilities

Act as a trusted advisor for enterprise customers, guiding them through the strategic design, validation, and full-scale deployment of VMware Kubernetes solution built on VMware Cloud Foundation infrastructure platforms.
Drive customer success by spearheading architecture workshops, technical deep-dives, and complex Proof-of-Concepts (PoCs) to accelerate the deployment of Supervisor and VMware Kubernetes Service.
Deliver resilient solution architectures for Kubernetes networking, managing advanced configurations for IP Address Management (IPAM), container-native egress/ingress traffic, and cloud-native microservices routing.
Partner closely with Product Management, Engineering field core teams and Systems Integrator partners to jointly develop customer proposals that address virtualization scaling, workload placement, and physical-to-virtual operational transformations.
Build, standardize, and share reusable reference architectures, deployment patterns, and technical assets to accelerate customer adoption of VCF enterprise infrastructure.

Requirements

Proven architecture expertise on VMware Cloud Foundation core infrastructure products, including advanced vSphere deployment, vSAN storage architectures, and automated SDDC Manager operations.
Experience with Kubernetes Platform Engineering (EKS, AKS, RH OCP/OPP, Rancher)
Comprehensive knowledge of enterprise IT infrastructure, including server, network, and storage architectures.
Deep design and implementation experience with enterprise networking fabrics eg. VMware NSX or other leading Solutions.
Demonstrated solutions experience managing Kubernetes-native networking constructs, ensuring reliable ingress controllers, egress controls, and CNI multi-tenancy configurations.
Lead analysis of issues during PoCs or pilot across the entire technology stack, tackling complex infrastructure, networking, and containerization issues within Kubernetes and Supervisor environments.
10+ years in technology-related engineering or consulting roles, with explicit depth in enterprise IT architecture, data center SDN, or private cloud infrastructure platforms.
Experience with VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) is highly beneficial
Proven success working directly alongside enterprise customers and global Systems Integrators to deliver technical solutions and drive platform adoption.
Excellent presentation, storytelling, and interpersonal skills with the ability to comfortably articulate infrastructure complexities in clear business terms to executive decision-makers.
Enthusiastic, self-starting professional with the agility to work hand-in-hand with multi-disciplinary sales and engineering teams to advance strategic client opportunities.
Experience with vertical industry specializations (e.g., Financial Services, Telecommunications) or recognized thought leadership in software-defined data centers is considered a strong plus.
Ability to travel up to 60% of the time to support on-site architectural workshops and client deployments.
Deep, verifiable knowledge of VMware enterprise products, software-defined data center virtualization paradigms, and modern container networking architectures.
