AWS Solutions Architect (Hybrid - Flexible Options)

At Broadridge, we've built a culture where the highest goal is to empower others to accomplish more. If you're passionate about developing your career, while helping others along the way, come join the Broadridge team.

Broadridge is Growing! We're seeking an AWS Solutions Architect to design, document, and guide implementation of secure, scalable cloud solutions across a diverse technology landscape. This role partners closely with business and technology stakeholders to analyze current-state systems and data flows, define target-state architectures, and drive alignment through clear communication and practical solution designs. You will produce end-to-end solution flows (e.g., in Visio) and translate requirements into architectures that meet nonfunctional requirements-performance, reliability, cost optimization (FinOps), security, and compliance. This is a Senior-level Solutions Architect role supporting cross-team initiatives and influencing technical direction across multiple domains, with a strong emphasis on architecture documentation, stakeholder alignment, and cloud transformation on AWS.

• Work Model Options:Hybrid / Onsite(based on team needs and candidate location)
• Travel:Occasional travel (e.g., quarterly) for planning sessions, workshops, or key stakeholder meetings

• Designend-to-end AWS architecturesaligned to business goals and technical constraints, including:

• Landing zones(multi-account strategy, AWS Organizations, SCPs, guardrails)
• Microservicesand domain-aligned architectures
• Serverlesssolutions (event-driven patterns)
• Containers(ECS/EKS) and service-to-service connectivity
• RDS (Postgresql), Dynamo etc.
• Hybrid connectivity(VPN/Direct Connect, identity integration)
• DR/BCP(multi-AZ, multi-region patterns, RTO/RPO design, resilience testing)

• Analyze existing solutions and dataacross a diverse set of technologies (cloud/on-prem/SaaS) to:
  • Document current-state architecture, dependencies, and constraints
  • Identify gaps, risks, and technical debt
  • Propose atarget-statewith clear migration/transition steps
• Define pragmatic roadmaps and phased delivery plans (e.g., strangler patterns, incremental modernization)

• Communicate clearly and proactively withbusiness and technology teamsto share information, drive clarity, and gain alignment on solutions
• Facilitate architecture workshops, discovery sessions, and design reviews with:
  • Product and engineering teams
  • Security, risk, and compliance partners
  • Infrastructure/operations/SRE teams
  • Data/analytics teams
  • Executive stakeholders and, when needed, customers or external partners
• Translate complex technical tradeoffs into business-relevant outcomes (time-to-market, risk, cost, customer impact)

• Establish and improve architecture standards and reusable patterns (reference architectures, templates, design checklists)
• Guide delivery teams through implementation, ensuring architectures are buildable and operable
• Contribute to technical decision-making forums (e.g., Architecture Review Board) and ensure solutions meet agreed guardrails

• Identify opportunities to modernize platforms and accelerate delivery via automation, managed services, and repeatable patterns
• Promote innovation responsibly-balancing experimentation with security, reliability, and cost constraints
• Stay current on AWS capabilities, best practices, and emerging patterns; recommend adoption when it creates measurable value

• 5+ years in solutions architecture, cloud architecture, or similar technical leadership role
• Strong AWS architecture experience delivering production systems (design + guiding implementation)
• Demonstrated ability to createclear solution flowsand architecture diagrams (e.g.,Visio)
• Proven experience analyzing complex, heterogeneous environments and producingcurrent-state and target-statearchitectures
• Strong communication skills-able to align business and technical stakeholders and document decisions clearly
• Solid understanding of nonfunctional requirements: availability, performance, security, compliance, and cost
• Experience partnering with engineering teams using Agile delivery methods

• AWS certification(s):AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate/Professional(Professional preferred)

• Compute: EC2, Auto Scaling, Lambda
• Containers: ECS, EKS, ECR
• Networking: VPC, Transit Gateway, PrivateLink, Route 53
• Storage: S3, EBS, EFS
• Kafka
• Databases: RDS/Aurora, DynamoDB (and fit-for-purpose selection)
• Integration: API Gateway, EventBridge, SQS, SNS, Step Functions
• Identity/Security: IAM, KMS, Secrets Manager, Cognito (as needed)
• Governance: AWS Organizations, Control Tower (where applicable)

• VPC design (subnets, routing, NACLs, SGs), DNS strategy, hybrid patterns (VPN/Direct Connect)
• Network segmentation and shared services models (hub-and-spoke, multi-account connectivity)

• Zero-trust-aligned principles, least privilege IAM, encryption in transit/at rest
• Threat modeling participation, security architecture patterns, audit readiness
• Logging, monitoring, and evidence collection approaches

• Monitoring/alerting, SLO/SLI thinking, operational runbooks
• Logging/trace correlation patterns; incident response collaboration

• Visio(solution flows, integration and data flows)
• Structured documentation (ADRs, design docs, reference architectures)
