Role Summary
The Enterprise / Cloud Architect will lead themigration and enablement of a large, stateful, monolithic Java application toGoogle Cloud Platform (GCP). The role requires deep expertise inRMIâbased architectures,stateful session management,DNSâbased service discovery, andhighâavailability cloud design, ensuring seamless connectivity, session continuity, and protocol compatibility during and after migration.
Key Responsibilities
- Architect and drive themigration of a large monolithic application to GCP while preserving existing functional and nonâfunctional behaviors
- Design and validateRMI implementation on GCP, ensuring reliable clientâserver connectivity
- ImplementQDRMI sessions and validatecontinuity of connected client sessions
- Design and managestateful session and connection management across cloud instances
- Enable and validateQDRMI connectivity between client applications and GKE
- ImplementDNSâbased service discovery to replace fixed IP dependencies
- DesignDNS routing strategies to eliminate tight coupling with server IP addresses
- Ensurebinary protocol compatibility between onâpremise clients and cloudâhosted services
- Validate client session persistence during:
- GCP instance restarts
- Pod restarts and rescheduling in GKE
- Collaborate closely with application, network, and platform teams to resolve connectivity, latency, and sessionâmanagement challenges
- Define architectural guardrails, patterns, and best practices for stateful workloads on GCP
- Review and validate architecture designs, PoCs, and implementation artifacts
- Enterpriseâscalecloud architecture with strong focus onGCP
- Experience migratinglarge, tightly coupled monolithic applications
- Basic Understanding ofJava RMI / QDRMI architectures
- Stateful socketâbased communication and session lifecycle management
- DNSâbased service discovery and routing mechanisms
- GKE architecture forstateful workloads
- Networking concepts including:
- Fixed IP replacement strategies
- Load balancing and DNS routing
- Highâavailability and failover design
- Strong understanding ofbinary protocol handling and compatibility
- Experience designinghighâavailability, lowâlatency trading or transaction systems
Experience Requirements
- 12â15+ years of experience in enterprise or cloud architecture
- Proven experience withstateful, highâavailability systems
- Handsâon experience withGCP and GKE
