60 Solutions 2 Go Jobs Hiring Near You

We need a Solutions Architect.
Do you see the whole board - the systems, the data, the dependencies, and the business goals behind them - and know exactly where the next move should go? Are you the kind of engineer-leader who can sketch a modern architecture on a whiteboard in the morning, defend the trade-offs to stakeholders by noon, and roll up your sleeves with the dev team by afternoon? If you love turning sprawling, complex environments into clean, scalable, modern systems, and bringing a team along with you, then please apply.

Come join us if you're motivated to learn from others, to learn from mistakes, to be part of a future-looking and growth-oriented team.

Let's go Skyward together.

• Lead the technical vision for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as it merges and modernizes its enterprise knowledge and data systems into a single, AI-driven platform, reducing manual effort, improving data accuracy, and enhancing transparency for stakeholders.
• Own the architecture. Design a robust, modern enterprise architecture built on AWS, guided by the AWS Well-Architected Framework, the USDS playbook, and Twelve-Factor App principles, while minimizing on-premises footprint and maintaining strong disaster recovery.
• Steer a seamless, low-risk transition and ongoing operations, meeting infrastructure and application availability SLAs without disrupting CMS’s core business.
• Merge two systems without breaking either. Apply patterns like strangler-fig and cyclomatic-complexity analysis to identify, prioritize, and sequence refactor, integration, and modernization opportunities.
• Design for change. Build modular systems using containerization, infrastructure as code, and CI/CD so the platform can flex with CMS’s evolving strategies and new initiatives.
• Partner with the AI Lead to identify and architect automation opportunities, including LLM-driven and automated data-collection strategies.
• Establish observability and insight. Work with the team to stand up continuous monitoring (CloudWatch, New Relic, Splunk) and turn performance, health, and cost data into decisions.
• Be the bridge between technology and business. Translate stakeholder needs into technical direction and explain technical trade-offs to non-technical audiences with clarity.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship. Set engineering standards, guide the development team, and grow the technical capability of the people around you.

• A bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in solutions architecture, software engineering, or systems engineering, including significant time architecting AWS cloud environments.
• Deep expertise in AWS services, cloud architecture patterns, and modern best practices.
• Strong command of modern engineering practices - microservices, containerization (Docker), infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible), and CI/CD (Jenkins, GitLab CI).
• A track record of leading the technical direction of complex, distributed systems and guiding engineering teams.
• Proficiency in one or more programming/scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash, Go) and the credibility that comes from having built things yourself.
• Excellent communication skills, with a real talent for presenting complex technical concepts to both engineers and stakeholders.

• You’ve previously worked with CMS.
• You have experience working in AI, NLP, or LLM-driven environments - specially hosting models securely within a cloud environment.
• You have familiarity with FISMA boundaries, ATO/cATO, and federal security frameworks (RMF, ARS, IS2P2).
