JSC Group is looking for a hands-on Cloud Architect to build and run the cloud platform behind our manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and customer operations. This is a hybrid role. You will set architecture direction and also do the engineering work to deliver it.

You will design secure, reliable, cost-effective AWS solutions that connect our factory, offices, and customers. That includes our AI-powered quality inspection platform (QCX),order management and export documentation workflows, and data that moves between sites and time zones. You will work closely with Quality Assurance, Procurement, Engineering & NPD, Operations, and business development teams.

• Design cloud architectures for JSC's core business systems, including order management, supplier and procurement data, shipment and export documentation, and quality inspection records.

• Lead the architecture of the QCX quality inspection platform, covering image and inspection-data pipelines, AI model integration ,traceability, and customer-facing access.

• Build reliable connectivity and data sync between the Vietnam factory, the Singapore HQ, and the India operations.

• Set reference architectures, reusable patterns, and engineering standards suited to a mid-sized manufacturing exporter.

• Review solutions for scalability, availability, performance, security, and cost, keeping cloud spend proportionate to business value.

• Work with business stakeholders to turn operational needs into practical technology roadmaps, such as faster order reconciliation, better shipment visibility, and quality data customers can access.

Engineering Execution

• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitLab or equivalent) and automation frameworks.

• Build and manage AWS infrastructure, including EC2,ECS/EKS, Lambda, ELB, RDS, S3, KMS, Secrets Manager, Event Bridge, and CloudWatch.

• Develop Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform and/or CloudFormation.

• Automate document-heavy workflows such as purchase orders, invoices, packing lists, bills of lading, and certificates of conformance, using Python, Bash, PowerShell, or Ansible.

• Integrate cloud systems with ERP, email, and office productivity tools (Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace).

• Troubleshoot production issues across sites, lead root cause analysis, and put preventive fixes in place.

Security, Data Protection & Compliance

• Secure the platform with least-privilege access, encryption at rest and in transit, secrets management, and strong identity controls.

• Protect customer and commercial data, including pricing, drawings, specifications, and order history, with appropriate segregation between customers and internal teams.

• Implement security controls and monitoring, including IAM, KMS, CloudTrail, and Guard Duty.

• Support quality and customer audit requirements by keeping inspection records, material certifications, and lot traceability retained, tamper-evident, and retrievable.

• Help the business meet data protection obligations across Singapore, Vietnam, India, the US, and the UK.

• 7+ years in cloud architecture and engineering roles.

• Strong hands-on AWS experience across compute, containers, serverless, databases, storage, and security services.

• Solid understanding of AWS networking, including VPC,VPN or Direct Connect, routing, and multi-site connectivity.

• Proficiency in Python plus at least one of Bash, PowerShell, or Ansible.

• Experience with CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code(GitLab, Terraform, CloudFormation).

• A track record of designing scalable, secure, cost-optimised architectures.

• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.

• The ability to explain technical decisions clearly to non-technical teams in QA, procurement, and operations.

• AWS certifications (Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer, or Security Specialty).

• Experience with AWS AI services, such as Bedrock and Bedrock Agents, or with computer vision and ML pipelines, especially for quality inspection.

• Background in manufacturing, supply chain, logistics, or industrial B2B environments.

• Familiarity with quality systems and traceability requirements (ISO 9001; aerospace or automotive supply chains a plus).

• Experience with ERP integration and document automation(OCR, PDF and Excel processing).

• Experience with observability tools (CloudWatch, Grafana, Prometheus).

• Experience supporting teams across multiple countries and time zones.
