Senior Solution Architect, Traffic Infrastructure Resume Brody Sanchez Senior Solution Architect, Traffic Infrastructure (425) 555-6184 brody.sanchez@example.com linkedin.com/example/brodysanchez Kirkland, WA 98033 STRENGTHS Ambiguous Requirements Turns incomplete traffic needs into clear request paths and implementation steps. Teams gained direction when early conversations felt uncertain. Customer Architecture Works directly with engineering teams, earning confidence through clear decisions and steady follow through. Questions became usable plans. Traffic Design Connects ingress, egress, gateways, and service mesh patterns with real operating constraints. Practical choices kept adoption moving. Security Boundaries Reviews cross zone routing with care for trust, policy, and ownership. That habit exposed risks before migration work began. Technical Mentoring Shares troubleshooting and architecture methods with senior engineers. Peers returned for help when request paths became difficult.

Builds practical architectures for load balancing, Kubernetes ingress and egress, Envoy, gateways, service mesh systems, network boundaries , and trust zone security. Partners directly with application and platform teams to clarify incomplete requirements, map request paths, assess constraints, and create implementation plans that move integrations into production. Career growth across network engineering, platform engineering, traffic architecture, and senior solution ownership reflects steady adaptation as infrastructure needs changed. Communicates architecture decisions clearly, documents product gaps, and keeps customer teams aligned from discovery through delivery. Ready to apply this blend of technical depth and customer partnership to dependable traffic infrastructure solutions. EXPERIENCE Senior Solution Architect, Traffic Infrastructure Rainier Cloud Platforms March 2024 - Present Kirkland, WA Primary architecture partner for engineering teams adopting managed load balancing , gateway, and service mesh capabilities across multicluster application environments. Guides discovery, design, product feedback, and production readiness while maintaining clear decisions across stakeholder groups. Mapped incomplete traffic requirements into request paths, trust boundaries, dependencies, and phased integration plans. Designed Kubernetes ingress and egress patterns with Envoy data planes for secure application reachability. Reviewed cross border traffic flows, exposing policy constraints before production migration sequences began. Documented integration gaps with acceptance criteria, giving platform engineers practical paths for product decisions. Guided architecture reviews through production readiness , resolving customer questions and preserving delivery momentum. Principal Traffic Architect Soundline Distributed Systems January 2021 - February 2024 Seattle, WA Owned traffic architecture for shared Kubernetes platforms serving application teams across distributed environments. Connected customer discovery with platform engineering, reference designs, migration planning, and architecture mentorship for secure service connectivity. Defined shared Kubernetes ingress , egress, gateway, and service connectivity patterns for application teams. Introduced Envoy service mesh designs that standardized routing and security across trust boundaries. Sequenced proxy migration plans around production dependencies, protecting availability during managed service adoption. Converted recurring integration blockers into prioritized platform capabilities and clearer adoption guidance. Mentored senior engineers through network troubleshooting, request path analysis, and customer architecture reviews. Senior Platform Engineer Evergreen Container Services May 2018 - December 2020 Redmond, WA Built networking foundations for internal application platforms, with hands on ownership of service discovery, ingress routing, egress controls, Envoy configuration, gateways , and production onboarding. Translated application behavior into dependable platform traffic patterns. Engineered Kubernetes networking foundations for service discovery, ingress routing, egress control, and workload connectivity. Implemented Envoy proxy configurations and gateway patterns for shared platform services. Traced packet behavior across containers, hosts, proxies, and upstream services during complex incidents. Documented trust boundaries and routing dependencies for segmented workload communication and security reviews. Created runbooks and integration examples that reduced architecture escalations during platform adoption. Network Engineer II Northwest Network Automation July 2015 - April 2018 Tacoma, WA Supported routed connectivity for data center and application environments while expanding depth in TCP/IP, DNS, load balancing, automation, and troubleshooting. Worked with systems engineers on migration paths, reverse proxy standards, and change planning. Designed routed connectivity for data center applications using TCP/IP , DNS, and load balancing fundamentals. Automated network configuration and validation tasks for repeatable application connectivity changes. Analyzed packet paths during incidents, isolating failures across routing, DNS , firewalls, and load balancers. Validated segmented environment connectivity before application migration cutovers and release windows. Created technical diagrams and change plans that clarified dependencies, implementation steps, and rollback risks. Network Engineer Puget Sound Infrastructure Group June 2014 - June 2015 Olympia, WA Supported enterprise network services for application and infrastructure teams under senior engineering review. Developed core troubleshooting, load balancing, documentation, release coordination, and service owner communication skills. Configured routed connectivity and validated service reachability across managed enterprise environments. Traced TCP/IP and DNS requests through network devices and application endpoints to isolate failures. Maintained internal load balancer routing changes and verified expected application behavior. Prepared topology records with dependencies and rollback steps for scheduled network changes. Coordinated release testing with server and application teams, finding firewall and naming issues early. PROJECTS Cross Boundary Traffic Reference Architecture 2024 Created a reusable architecture reference for traffic routing across network borders and trust zones. The work reflects a belief that clear boundaries help engineering teams make safer decisions, move with confidence, and keep service ownership visible. Managed Gateway Adoption Framework 2023 Developed adoption guidance for teams moving from application managed proxies to managed gateways. Focus centered on practical migration steps, clear ownership, and dependable service delivery rather than technology for its own sake. LEADERSHIP & AWARDS Recognized by platform leadership for clear traffic architecture decisions during complex customer integrations. Selected to mentor senior engineers on request path analysis, network troubleshooting, and architecture communication. Earned sustained trust from application teams by carrying integration questions through production readiness.
