The ideal candidate is a technology generalist with deep expertise in architecture and solutioning rather than someone limited to a single technology stack.

You should be able to walk into a Federal customer requirement, understand the mission and technical challenges, and answer:

“What should we build, how should we build it, what technologies should we use, and why is this the right solution?”

The candidate should be comfortable moving between Cloud + Application + Data + AI + Security + Emerging Technologies and providing practical, commercially viable recommendations.
