Senior Cloud Architect

1. Spec-Driven Development with Kiro — Lead the adoption of AWS Kiro's spec-first approach, authoring structured requirements, design, and task specifications that drive autonomous, traceable code generation — ensuring every line of generated code is grounded in validated intent. 2. Agent Hooks & Automation Design — Design and implement Kiro agent hooks (file-save triggers, event-driven automations) that autonomously enforce coding standards, run linting, regenerate documentation, and invoke downstream agents — reducing manual toil across the development lifecycle. 3. Steering File Governance — Define and maintain Kiro steering files (.kiro/steering/) to encode organisational standards, architectural patterns, tech stack conventions, and security guardrails — ensuring every AI-assisted task aligns with enterprise engineering policies. 4. Multi-Agent Workflow Orchestration — Architect multi-agent pipelines within Kiro where specialised sub-agents handle discrete SDLC concerns — requirements analysis, API contract generation, code scaffolding, test creation, and deployment validation — with clear handoffs and human-in-the-loop checkpoints. 5. AI-Assisted Architecture & Design Artefacts — Utilise Kiro's agentic capabilities to auto-generate architecture decision records (ADRs), API specifications (OpenAPI), data models, and system design documents from high-level requirements — accelerating the design phase significantly. 6. Automated Test Generation & Quality Engineering — Leverage Kiro agents to automatically generate unit tests, integration tests, BDD scenarios, and test data aligned to spec definitions — continuously improving coverage and shifting quality further left in the pipeline. 7. CI/CD & DevSecOps Integration — Integrate Kiro agent workflows with CI/CD pipelines, connecting spec-driven outputs to automated build, security scanning (SAST/SCA), and deployment stages — creating a seamless, auditable path from spec to production.
