- Job Title: Rehosting & Migration Engineer
Job summary
The Rehosting and Migration Engineer is responsible for planning, executing, and managing the lift-and-shift migration of on-premises workloads, applications, and databases to the cloud.

This role requires a strong understanding of cloud infrastructure (IaaS), automation tools, and migration best practices to ensure minimal disruption during the transition.

The ideal candidate is a technical expert with a bias for action who can collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver a successful and timely migration.
Responsibilities
- Assessment: Evaluate existing on-premises infrastructure, applications, and databases to determine readiness for cloud migration.
- Strategy and Planning: Develop and document detailed migration plans, including timelines, resource allocation, and cutover strategies, focusing on a rehosting (lift-and-shift) approach.
- Execution: Implement and manage the end-to-end migration process, moving workloads to the target cloud platform, such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.
- Automation: Utilize native cloud migration tools (e.g., AWS Application Migration Service, Azure Migrate) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform to automate migration processes.
- System Setup: Replicate the source environment by provisioning cloud infrastructure (e.g., virtual machines, storage, networking) to ensure compatibility.
- Troubleshooting: Address and resolve technical challenges that arise during migration, including performance issues, network latency, and application dependencies.
- Security and Compliance: Implement and enforce cloud security best practices, ensuring all migrated workloads comply with relevant policies and regulatory requirements.
- Optimization: Monitor migrated workloads post-cutover to identify and implement performance and cost optimization opportunities, such as right-sizing compute instances.
- Documentation: Create and maintain comprehensive documentation covering the migration architecture, processes, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
- Collaboration: Work closely with application teams, security, and operations to ensure seamless integration and a smooth transition.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- [3–12] years of experience in IT, with at least [2] years of hands-on experience specifically with cloud migration projects.
- Proven experience executing large-scale lift-and-shift migrations from on-premises or virtualized environments (VMware) to the cloud.
- In-depth knowledge of at least one major public cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud).
- Strong practical skills in system administration for both Windows and Linux environments.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation) and scripting languages (e.g., Python, PowerShell).
- Solid understanding of cloud networking concepts, including VPC/VNet, subnets, DNS, and firewalls.
- Experience with various migration tools (e.g., AWS Application Migration Service, Azure Migrate, CloudEndure, Carbonite Migrate) is preferred.
Desirable skills
- Familiarity with Agile methodologies.
- Cloud certifications such as AWS Certified Solutions Architect, Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator, or Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect.
- Experience in a professional services or consulting environment.
- Excellent communication and problem-solving skills.
