About This Role

We’re looking for a skilled and motivated AWS Solutions Architect with strong DevOps expertise to help lead the evolution of our cloud infrastructure. This role is central to maintaining and improving a mature, microservices-based API platform that serves millions of users across several mobile applications.

You’ll play a key role in managing our multi-account AWS Organization using tools like Control Tower and IAM Identity Center, ensuring secure, scalable, and compliant operations across teams and services. You’ll work closely with engineers and DevOps professionals to streamline CI/CD pipelines, manage large-scale data services, and support high-performance APIs. You'll get to build out solutions using cutting edge technologies that will have a global reach.

Beyond day-to-day operations, we’re looking for someone who can lead cloud cost governance, platform performance improvements, and bring fresh ideas for solving the complex challenges that come with scale. This is a hands-on role with real influence over our cloud strategy and architecture.

Why Join Us

This is more than just a technical role, it’s a chance to be part of something big. You’ll work on a platform that supports some of the world’s most iconic IPs, including Major League Baseball (MLB), WWE, Star Wars, Disney, and Marvel, with exciting new major sports partnerships launching soon. Our user base is nearly a decade old, and we serve an active and enthusiastic global community of collectors and fans. Every member of our team is dedicated to relentlessly enhancing the fan experience.

We’re also deepening our integration with Fanatics Collectibles, creating opportunities for greenfield development, innovation, and cross-team collaboration.

You’ll join a team that values smart automation, sustainable operations (with minimal after-hours work), and continuous learning. If you’re passionate about cloud architecture, eager to work with modern AWS technologies, and excited by scale and impact, this is the role for you.

The Perfect Candidate

You love fine-tuning tools, exploring new technologies, and making systems run smoothly. You’re curious, self-driven, and take full ownership of projects: from gathering requirements to delivering highimpact solutions. And you love to automate all the things!

You communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical teams, and you’re skilled at understanding diverse needs to create seamless, user-friendly systems. Whether collaborating or working independently, you drive progress with clarity and confidence. If you enjoy smart problem-solving and making a real difference, you’ll thrive in this role.
