Job description

Join the D2 team as a System Architect and play a key role in designing and evolving Enterprise Cross Domain Systems (ECDS)-critical platforms that enable secure, reliable data transfers across domains. These systems support both everyday users and high-profile programs, making your work directly impactful to mission success.

In this role, you’ll be more than an architect-you’ll be a problem solver, innovator, and trusted advisor. From envisioning system designs to mentoring development teams, you’ll help deliver robust, scalable, and secure solutions that stand the test of time.

What You’ll Do

  • Design the future - Define and document system architectures for new products, features, and services.
  • Guide innovation - Conduct feasibility studies, evaluate risks, and develop long-term technical roadmaps.
  • Build for scale - Architect systems that handle high data volumes while ensuring top-notch performance.
  • Lead with expertise - Provide mentorship and technical guidance to development teams throughout the lifecycle.
  • Stay ahead of the curve - Explore emerging technologies and identify opportunities for modernization.
  • Protect the mission - Implement security measures that ensure reliability, availability, and data integrity.
  • Bridge the gap - Communicate complex technical ideas in clear, approachable ways for diverse stakeholders.

Requirements

  • 4-6 years of relevant system architecture or engineering experience.
  • Bachelor’s Degree in Information Technology, Information Systems, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • DoD 8140.01 / DoD 8570.01-M IAT Level II Certification.
  • Active TS/SCI clearance (with the ability to obtain a CI Poly within 6 months).

Benefits & conditions

  • Compensation is unique to each candidate and relative to the skills and experience they bring to the position. The salary range for this position is typically $105-115k. This does not guarantee a specific salary as compensation is based upon multiple factors such as education, experience, certifications, and other requirements, and may fall outside of the above-stated range.
  • Highlights of our benefits include Health/Dental/Vision, 401(k) match, Accrued PTO, STD/LTD/Life Insurance, Referral Bonuses, professional development reimbursement, and more!
