DCGS Solution Architect
The Opportunity:
At a certain point, experience-based system design can start to look like clairvoyance. When you’ve developed so many systems that you can not only orchestrate the best solution for any technology-based challenge, but you can also anticipate and preempt future issues, you’re a solutions architect. You’ve evolved your skills into strategy through a long path of software development accomplishments and the curiosity to understand how all the pieces of an IT ecosystem fit together. Are you ready to use your combination of knowledge, skill, and experience to take on the toughest challenges in DoD Cloud technologies, systems integration, requirements analysis, AI/ML, DevSecOps, communications networks, acquisitions, and IC application development, delivery, and sustainment?
As a Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS) Solution Architect on our team, you'll translate your customer’s IT needs and future goals into a plan by crafting integrated systems designs, traceability matrices, technical reports, documentation, and dependency mapping. With your guidance, we’ll help transform the way DCGS integrates with the IC, C/JADC2, and ABMS, and use technology, including cloud migration, integrating advanced technology, and modernizing legacy systems. What do you do next in a career when you’ve reached this level? You mentor the next set of developers to help them grow into tomorrow’s solutions architects.
Work with us and build the future of technology in AI/ML, Automation, Cloud, and Capability Delivery supporting SIGINT, GEOINT, Multi-INT, and Fusion operations for the better.
