Key Responsibilities

Discovery & Migration Assessment

• Assess on-premises hosts, applications, databases, middleware, and infrastructure components to perform technical discovery and migration readiness analysis.
• Analyze CPU, memory, storage utilization, dependencies, integrations, runtime patterns, licensing considerations, and application architecture.
• Identify migration risks, technical constraints, dependencies, and remediation requirements.
• Analyze workloads based on functionality, business criticality, resiliency requirements, compliance needs, and interruption tolerance.
• Define appropriate cloud placement strategies including rehost, replatform, refactor, retire, retain, or replace approaches.

Cloud Infrastructure Planning & Implementation

• Design and provision cloud infrastructure capacity required to support migration activities, testing environments, and production workloads.
• Configure cloud resources including compute, storage, networking, identity, security controls, monitoring, and operational tooling.
• Validate cloud environments against architecture standards, security requirements, and operational readiness criteria.
• Implement infrastructure automation using Infrastructure as Code practices.

Migration Execution & Validation

• Execute migration waves following approved migration plans, runbooks, and change management procedures.
• Perform User Acceptance Testing (UAT), production parallel testing, and technical validation activities.
• Compare pre-migration and post-migration results, capture evidence, troubleshoot discrepancies, and drive issues through resolution.
• Support production cutovers, release activities, rollback procedures, and post-release validation.
• Perform post-migration health checks to ensure workload stability, performance, scalability, and operational readiness.

Performance Optimization & Operations

• Perform workload tuning and optimization to ensure migrated applications are stable, scalable, reliable, and cost efficient.
• Analyze performance metrics, resource utilization, logs, and operational data to identify optimization opportunities.
• Support monitoring and operational health of cloud environments post-migration.
