Cloud Architect
POSITION SUMMARY Our client is seeking a
Cloud Architect
to support the
Joint Operational Medicine Information Systems (JOMIS)
portfolio within the
Defense Healthcare Medical Systems (DHMS)
program.
This role is responsible for defining, implementing, and governing cloud architecture patterns that support operational medicine systems across development, test, and production environments. The Cloud Architect provides technical leadership to ensure JOMIS platforms are secure, scalable, reliable, and aligned with government standards and mission needs.
The role works closely with engineering teams, cybersecurity, DevSecOps, and program leadership to establish clear cloud standards, guide modernization efforts, and ensure consistent implementation across vendors and delivery teams.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
Lead cloud architecture design for JOMIS platforms and systems, including reference architecture, landing zone standards, environment design, and network segmentation
Define cloud hosting and connectivity approaches that support operational medicine systems, enterprise users, integrations, and deployed environments
Document, propose, and pressure test solution design options for cloud hosting and optimization solution designs including clear tradeoffs, recommended course(s) of action, and decisions to be made
Drive reliability and performance practices, including scalability planning, resiliency patterns, disaster recovery strategies, and uptime targets
Support modernization efforts by contributing to legacy system migration planning, transition architectures, and phased implementation roadmaps
Partner with cybersecurity teams to ensure architectures align with Zero Trust principles, identity-based access, encryption, auditing, and continuous monitoring requirements
Establish and maintain cloud governance practices, including architecture review processes, technical standards, and reusable patterns across teams and vendors
Guide DevSecOps platform architecture, including CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, automated compliance evidence, and environment promotion strategies
Provide clear and concise briefings to government and BCG leadership on cloud architecture decisions, risks, tradeoffs, and delivery impacts, along with a perspective on recommended course(s) of action
Develop and maintain architecture documentation, including system context diagrams, deployment views, interface mappings, and DoDAF-aligned artifacts when required
BASIC JOB REQUIREMENTS
Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
Eight or more years of experience in cloud architecture, platform engineering, or enterprise infrastructure roles
Demonstrated experience designing secure cloud or hybrid environments in regulated or compliance-driven organizations
Demonstrated experience modernizing legacy and monolithic architectures into cloud-native or microservices-based architectures (containers, managed services, event-driven patterns as appropriate)
Experience developing cloud migration strategies and executable plans (discovery, dependency mapping, landing zone readiness, wave planning, cutover/rollback, validation, and decommissioning)
Strong understanding of networking, identity and access management, secrets management, logging, monitoring, and incident response integration
Hands‑on experience with DevSecOps concepts, automation, infrastructure as code, and CI/CD pipelines
Familiarity with DoD system development lifecycle practices and architecture frameworks such as DoDAF
Ability to produce clear technical documentation and communicate effectively with technical and non‑technical stakeholders
Hands‑on architecture experience with at least one hyperscale cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform)
Experience working in Agile delivery environments
U.S. citizenship required
Active Secret clearance preferred, with ability to obtain and maintain clearance as required
KEY COMPETENCIES
Execution‑focused architect who balances speed, security, and reliability
Practices systems thinking and clearly articulates architectural tradeoffs across security, performance, cost, reliability, and delivery speed
Organized, self‑directed operator who manages competing priorities, maintains strong follow‑through, and communicates risks early in a fast‑paced environment
Effective collaborator able to influence teams and vendors without direct authority
Clear communicator who translates technical architecture into mission and program language
Deep understanding of cloud‑native architectures, integration patterns (e.g., APIs), and major cloud platforms & managed services
Communicates effectively with government and contractor stakeholders, including briefing architecture decisions, risks, and recommended paths forward
Flexible, team‑oriented mindset with strong customer service focus
Demonstrates discretion, professionalism, and sound judgment
Strong written and verbal communication skills
PREFERRED CERTIFICATIONS (NOT REQUIRED)
Cloud platform certifications such as AWS Solutions Architect, Azure Solutions Architect, or Google Cloud Professional Architect
DoD or federal security certifications such as Security, CISSP, or Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP)
DevSecOps or automation certifications related to Terraform, Kubernetes, or CI/CD platforms
Architecture or systems engineering certifications such as TOGAF or equivalent
Agile or delivery framework certifications such as SAFe, Scrum, or PMI-ACP
Interested candidates, please apply online with a detailed resume and contact information.
Thank you.
