Solution Architect - Cloud & Hybrid Workflows
Position Overview
Premiere Digital is seeking a highly technical and media-savvy Solution Architect – Cloud & Hybrid Workflows to design, optimize, and scale next-generation media processing workflows across on-premise facilities and cloud infrastructure.
This role will work at the intersection of Engineering, DevOps, Operations, and Client Onboarding to architect robust, scalable, and intelligent media workflows that support large-scale content libraries, archive modernization, AI-driven metadata systems, and distributed processing environments.
The ideal candidate understands both media supply chains and cloud-native architecture, and can translate complex operational needs into scalable technical solutions.
Key Responsibilities
Workflow Architecture & Design
• Architect end-to-end media workflows across hybrid environments (on-prem, private infrastructure, and AWS cloud)
• Design scalable pipelines for ingest, QC, transcode, packaging, archive, and distribution
• Collaborate with DevOps and Engineering teams to implement resilient, automated workflow orchestration
• Optimize media processing workflows for performance, cost-efficiency, and scalability
• Define best practices for hybrid storage tiers (Isilon, S3, Glacier, archive systems, etc.)
Platform Expansion
• Partner with development teams to expand functionality of internal platforms
• Support architecture for large-scale asset libraries
• Provide technical guidance on API integrations, automation tooling, and workflow extensibility
Cross-Functional Collaboration
• Work closely with DevOps, Software Engineering, and Infrastructure teams on deployment strategies
• Support Operations and Onboarding teams in designing client-specific workflow solutions
• Act as the technical bridge between business requirements and engineering implementation
• Participate in client onboarding for complex media workflow deployments
Hybrid Infrastructure & Cloud Strategy
• Architect hybrid compute models leveraging on-prem processing and cloud burst scaling
• Design secure, high-performance workflows across multi-region cloud environments
• Support containerized and microservices-based workflow deployment (Docker, Kubernetes, etc.)
• Guide cloud cost optimization strategies for media processing workloads
Operational Enablement & Support
• Provide Tier 3 technical guidance for complex workflow and pipeline issues
• Develop documentation, architectural diagrams, and workflow standards
• Assist in troubleshooting workflow bottlenecks and pipeline failures
• Continuously improve operational efficiency through automation and intelligent workflow design
Required Qualifications
• 7+ years of experience in Solution Architecture, Media Engineering, or Cloud Workflow Design
• Strong experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and hybrid infrastructure models
• Deep understanding of media processing workflows (transcoding, QC, packaging, delivery, archives)
• Experience working with DevOps and software development teams in production environments
• Familiarity with workflow orchestration tools, APIs, and automation frameworks
• Strong knowledge of storage systems (S3, NAS, object storage, archive tiers)
• Experience designing scalable, high-throughput data and media pipelines
Preferred Qualifications (Highly Valued at Premiere Digital)
• Experience in Media & Entertainment, Post-Production, or Digital Distribution
• Familiarity with large-scale asset management systems and MAM integrations
• Experience with AI/ML-driven media analysis or metadata workflows
• Understanding of archive modernization and legacy media migration workflows
Key Skills
• Cloud Architecture (AWS, Hybrid Cloud)
• Media Workflow Design & Optimization
• DevOps Collaboration & CI/CD Integration
• API & Systems Integration
• Distributed Processing & Scalable Pipelines
• Technical Documentation & Solution Design
• Stakeholder Communication (Technical & Operational)
