• Evaluate and recommend technologies, frameworks, and tools that fit within approved enterprise standards and the cArmy Google Cloud Platform IL5 environment, including emerging capabilities such as generative AI, agent-based services and automation.
• Advise senior leadership on how emerging technologies can be applied to create measurable mission advantage, translating complex architecture concepts into clear briefings and decision materials framed around strategic objectives and outcomes.
• Develop multi-year technology roadmaps, sequencing initiatives to balance value delivery, risk, and resource constraints.
• Ensure enterprise infrastructure, security controls, and data governance are designed to support new applications while preserving program integrity and meeting IL5 data residency requirements.
• Partner with cybersecurity and authorization teams to ensure portfolio architecture supports RMF and ATO objectives, with reusable inheritance and control patterns across NIST control families.
• Lead technical discovery sessions and requirements-gathering workshops with stakeholders, proposing the component set that together offers the best solution.
• Provide technical oversight throughout the full software development lifecycle, from initial design through deployment and post-launch support, keeping all parties aligned and moving in the same direction.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration of new solutions with existing systems and infrastructure, including authentication and data services.
• Monitor and manage technical risk throughout delivery, ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, maintainable, and consistent with requirements.
• Support development teams by providing clear technical direction, reviewing architecture decisions, and resolving complex technical challenges.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives, contributing to continuous improvement within the requirements workflow.
