Solutions Architect / Technical Lead (US citizenship is required)

Position Description
We're looking for a hands on technical lead and architect for a new AI assisted platform that helps federal agencies tackle challenges related to payment integrity. You'll own how the whole system fits together —AI powered document processing, a rules engine that applies complex eligibility rules, and the workflow where human reviewers approve each case — all running securely in AWS. As the team's senior technical authority, you'll set the architecture and engineering standards, make the key design decisions, and keep a multidisciplinary team aligned and unblocked. Candidate will have expertise in leveraging AI to build client driven prototypes and have experience in production implementation of AI enabled solutions.
This position is located in our Fairfax VA office; however, a hybrid working model is acceptable. Due to the nature of government contracts, US citizenship is required.

Your future duties and responsibilities
Own the overall system architecture end to end: document intake and AI extraction, the rules engine, the human review workflow, and reporting — all in AWS, leveraging AWS services.
Define the core data model and the interfaces between major components so teams can build  against stable contracts.
Set the engineering standards the team works to: version control of rules and data,
end to end traceability of every fact and decision, and strong automated testing.
Work closely with the security engineer so the design will meet its federal security
authorization (ATO) requirements from the start, rather than being reworked late.
Stay hands on: lead by designing alongside the team and unblocking senior engineers on the  hardest technical problems.
Required qualifications to be successful in this role:
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
10+ years of software development experience, including senior architecture ownership of a  non trivial distributed or data processing system.
Demonstrated experience designing on AWS (GovCloud or commercial), including IAM, data  boundaries, and infrastructure as code.
Track record owning a shared data contract / API between independent teams and enforcing it in practice.

Required qualifications to be successful in this role
Desired qualifications/non essential skills required:
Prior federal / regulated data delivery experience (FISMA, ATO context).
Experience with LLM integrated or document processing systems/OCR.
Experience leading teams building against shared interfaces / data contracts.

.    Competitive compensation
