This role sits at the intersection of cloud strategy, mission-driven solutioning, and high-stakes technical storytelling. You will design and shape innovative cloud architectures that directly influence the success of complex government proposals and digital modernization initiatives. Acting as a trusted technical advisor, you will translate mission requirements into secure, scalable, and cost-effective cloud solutions built primarily on AWS. The position combines deep architecture expertise with pre-sales and capture leadership, requiring the ability to craft compelling narratives that differentiate solutions in competitive environments. You will collaborate closely with business development, engineering, and proposal teams to define winning strategies and ensure technical feasibility. This is a high-impact role where your architectural vision and communication skills directly contribute to securing mission-critical programs and advancing large-scale cloud transformation efforts.
- Lead cloud solution architecture strategy for federal capture and proposal efforts, translating mission needs into compelling, compliant, and competitive technical solutions.
- Partner with capture managers, proposal teams, and executives to define win themes, differentiators, and solution narratives aligned with customer objectives.
- Develop end-to-end technical proposal artifacts, including architecture diagrams, compliance matrices, technical volumes, and oral presentation materials.
- Architect scalable, secure, and cost-optimized AWS-based solutions leveraging modern cloud-native and serverless patterns.
- Guide cross-functional teams in shaping solution approaches across engineering, security, compliance, and delivery considerations.
- Validate technical feasibility, cost structures, and deployment models in alignment with government standards and acquisition requirements.
- Integrate compliance frameworks such as NIST, FedRAMP, and DoD Cloud Security standards into solution designs.
- Support proposal orals and customer engagements as a persuasive technical expert, clearly articulating complex architectures to diverse audiences.
- Continuously evaluate emerging technologies (AI/ML, generative AI, containerization, edge computing) and incorporate them into solution strategies.
- 15+ years of overall experience, including 8+ years designing and architecting cloud solutions in enterprise or government environments.
- Strong expertise in AWS services such as Lambda, ECS/EKS, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Step Functions, EventBridge, Bedrock, SageMaker, and Amazon Q.
- Proven experience supporting or leading federal, state, or public-sector proposals, including technical writing and solution shaping.
- Deep understanding of DevSecOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation), and policy-as-code approaches.
- Strong knowledge of cloud security and architecture frameworks including Zero Trust and AWS Well-Architected Framework.
- Familiarity with compliance standards such as NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, FedRAMP, and DoD Cloud SRG.
- Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, persuasive messaging for both technical and executive audiences.
- Strong collaboration skills with the ability to work in fast-paced, proposal-driven environments.
- AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate required; Professional certification strongly preferred.
- Must be a U.S. citizen with eligibility to obtain and maintain a Top Secret clearance.
- Willingness to travel up to 25% for customer and proposal support activities.
- Competitive compensation package aligned with experience, including base salary, bonuses, and performance incentives.
- Comprehensive healthcare coverage including medical, dental, and vision plans.
- 401(k) retirement plan with company matching contributions.
- Paid time off, holidays, sick leave, and family-related leave programs.
- Flexible remote work environment with periodic travel for collaboration and customer engagement.
- Equity in professional growth through exposure to large-scale federal cloud transformation programs.
- Life, disability, and additional insurance coverage options for financial protection.
- Wellness, learning, and development resources to support long-term career growth.
- Inclusive, mission-driven environment focused on innovation, security, and national impact.
