We are seeking a Technical Architect (GoAnywhere MFT) to lead the architecture and upgrade strategy of a GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer platform in a large, global, regulated enterprise environment.

• Experience producing technical design documentation (HLD/LLD).
• Strong communication skills and ability to work across infrastructure/security/operations teams.

Nice to have:

• AS2 experience.
• SIEM/logging integration (e.g., Splunk/ELK).
• Background in regulated industries.

• Define and lead the end-to-end GoAnywhere MFT upgrade approach (side-by-side vs in-place).

• Provide technical leadership during build, upgrade, troubleshooting, and rollout.
• Define validation/testing approach, cutover and rollback plans.
• Lead post-upgrade health check and security configuration review.
