- Develop reference architectures, blueprints, and best practices for integrating GenAI tools and models (e.g., code generation/completion, automated testing script generation, documentation creation, security analysis) into CI/CD pipelines, IDEs, and other developer tools.
- Ensure designs are scalable, resilient, secure, cost-effective, and aligned with enterprise standards and compliance requirements.
- Stay abreast of emerging trends and advancements in cloud computing, DevOps, and Generative AI, assessing their potential impact on our SDLC.
- Implementation & Collaboration: Lead proof-of-concept (PoC) initiatives and pilot projects to validate GenAI use cases within the SDLC.
- Collaborate with development teams, DevOps engineers, security specialists, and product managers to integrate architected solutions into the existing SDLC framework.
- Provide technical leadership and guidance during the implementation phase, ensuring adherence to architectural designs and best practices.
- Develop Infrastructure as Code (IaC) templates (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM/Bicep) for provisioning and managing required cloud resources.
- Governance & Optimization: Define monitoring and observability strategies for GenAI-enhanced SDLC applications running in the cloud.
- Establish governance frameworks for the use of GenAI within development processes, focusing on security, data privacy, intellectual property, and cost management.
- Continuously analyze and optimize the performance, cost, and efficiency of the implemented solutions.
