## Description

The DC Child and Family Services Agency (CFSA) needs a senior, hands-on Solution Architect Lead as technical design authority for STAAND, its federally certified child-welfare system on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Power Platform (GCC) with commercial Azure services and production AI (Copilot Studio / Azure AI Foundry). Build-and-design role: architecture, security, AI engineering, and release cadence. Hybrid in Washington, DC (four days onsite).

What you'll do

 * Serve as the hands-on technical design authority for a federally certified child-welfare system built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform (GCC) with Azure services
 * Own the authoritative architecture (Dataverse data models, solution segmentation, environment strategy, integration topology) and personally build: model-driven apps, C#/.NET plug-ins and custom APIs, PCF controls, and Power Fx
 * Design and harden the boundary between the GCC Power Platform tenant and commercial Azure (cross-tenant identity, managed identities, Key Vault, private networking, API gateways) with a defensible data-residency/FedRAMP position
 * Lead AI/agentic development: build, evaluate, and productionize agents in Azure AI Foundry and Copilot Studio (RAG/grounding, tool calling, orchestration, AI evaluation, responsible-AI controls)
 * Own end-to-end security architecture (NIST 800-53, FISMA, FedRAMP, HIPAA, CCWIS, Title IV-E), least-privilege design, and secure SDLC
 * Own the change pipeline, Microsoft release-wave management, DevOps/CI-CD maturity, and performance/cost optimization
