  • Architect highly available, scalable, and resilient cloud environments using AWS or Kubernetes.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to architects and engineering teams.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience architecting and delivering enterprise AI, cloud, and platform solutions for government or regulated environments.
  • Experience designing production-grade AI systems using agentic frameworks like LangChain, LangGraph, AWS Bedrock Agents, or CrewAI.
  • Experience architecting highly available, scalable, and resilient cloud environments using AWS services or Kubernetes.
  • Experience implementing DevSecOps, CI/CD, and Infrastructure-as-Code using tools such as GitHub Actions, Terraform, Helm, or CloudFormation.
  • Experience programming in Python and at least one additional language including TypeScript, JavaScript, Java, or Go.
  • Experience leading or co-architecting research, development, or prototyping initiatives in ambiguous environments.
  • Knowledge of federal, Department of Defense, or government programs including IL4, IL5, FedRAMP, or AWS GovCloud.
