Cloud Architect Engineer

At ProMach, we look for people who want to shine. Here, you can grow your career, share bold ideas, and make a real impact. Do we have your attention? Keep reading. ZPI is the software division of ProMach, a leading provider of packaging solutions. ZPI develops, implements, and supports digital intelligence software systems that enhance the performance of packaged goods manufacturing operations. With a strong foundation in production monitoring, ZPI is now expanding into cloud-native products designed for the next generation of manufacturing customers. We're looking for a Cloud Architect & Engineer to lead the technical design and implementation of our cloud-based products. You'll have significant influence over how our products are structured, built, and deployed, working alongside our engineering team to turn ideas into production-ready products. This is a hands‑on role: you'll design the system, build it, and own it in production.

What You’ll Do

Architecture & Design

• Design cloud architecture for scalable, multi‑tenant SaaS products from data ingestion through cloud‑hosted services and customer‑facing reporting
• Define infrastructure patterns for multi‑tenancy, data isolation, scalability, and security that hold up as the product grows
• Evaluate technology and platform options with an eye toward long‑term maintainability
• Document architectural decisions and the reasoning behind them so the team inherits a clear, defensible record

Cloud Engineering

• Build, deploy, and maintain cloud infrastructure and backend components alongside the engineering team
• Design and build data pipelines that move operational data from customer environments into the cloud reliably, securely, and at scale
• Contribute working knowledge of CI/CD, Infrastructure-as-Code, and cloud operational practices, getting pipelines stood up and knowing what good looks like
• Establish monitoring, observability, and reliability practices that keep the product healthy in production

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience designing and building cloud-native systems end-to-end, not just contributing to a single layer
• Experience building systems that ingest and process high volumes of operational data reliably and at scale
• Experience designing and deploying databases at scale, including schema design, query performance, and storage tradeoffs
• Strong grasp of distributed systems: data flow, service boundaries, failure modes, and resilience patterns
• Experience integrating cloud platforms with on‑premises or operationally constrained environments
• Experience with Microsoft Azure and the broader Microsoft technology ecosystem, including .NET and SQL Server; comfort with cloud‑agnostic design principles a plus
• Background in industrial, IoT, or manufacturing environments is a plus
• Familiarity with SaaS architecture patterns: multi‑tenancy, customer data isolation, subscription‑based delivery
• Ability to communicate architectural decisions clearly to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
• Comfortable operating with ambiguity and able to make sound decisions before everything is fully defined
