Fort Meade FL United States Leidos Full time

The Digital Modernization Sector has a career opportunity for a Senior Solution Architect for Innovations supporting the Global Solutions Management – Operations II (GSM-O II) contract with the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). This contract includes the Operations, Sustainment, Maintenance, Repair, and Defense of the Defense Information System Network (DISN) within the DOD Information Network (DODIN). It also includes support to other key tasks for DISA, including the transformation of DISA’s operational mission through innovation, and support to DISA’s mission partners. The Solution Architect will be a part of a multifaceted, matrixed, and integrated innovations team, supporting a large, complex, and innovative AWS cloud-based solution.

The Solution Architect will establish strategic solution vision and design and create complex solution architectures, define requirements, and author design documentation and related technical artifacts that drive current and future program results, improving efficiency within the program and delivering improvements to service delivery to the customer, while working closely with the Chief Architect, engineering leads, and customer stakeholders. The Solution Architect will own solution design, engaging with all technical teams on the program, establish logical and physical architectures, lead technical designs, determine priorities, scope additional work, and oversee the planning and development of capabilities, and will lead the resolution of complex technical challenges as they arise.

The Solution Architect will support new business development activities, such as engaging with stakeholders and leadership to shape new business opportunities, authoring whitepapers and RFI responses, and conducting trade studies and analyses of alternatives, while proposing new and innovative solutions that align with strategic objectives. As needed, the Solution Architect will respond to requests to estimate cost, timeline, and effort, and refine scope of work by developing relevant artifacts. The Solution Architect will communicate regularly with individuals across roles and levels, including executive leadership.

This position is primarily remote; however, travel to GSM-O sites is required when necessary and candidates must be within commuting distance to either Scott AFB, IL or Ft. Meade, MD. A DoD Secret clearance is required to start.
