About Onebrief

Onebrief is collaboration and AI-powered workflow software designed specifically for military staffs. By transforming this work, Onebrief makes the staff as a whole superhuman - meaning faster, smarter, and more efficient.

We take ownership, seek excellence, and play to win with the seriousness and camaraderie of an Olympic team. Onebrief operates as an all-remote company, though many of our employees work alongside our customers at military commands around the world.

Founded in 2019 by a group of experienced planners, today, Onebrief’s team spans veterans from all forces and global organizations, and technologists from leading-edge software companies. We’ve raised $123m+ from top-tier investors, including Battery Ventures, General Catalyst, Insight Partners, and Human Capital, and today, Onebrief is valued at $1.1B. With this continued growth, Onebrief is able to make an impact where it matters most.

About the Role

Onebrief is hiring a Senior Solutions Architect to lead and support the deployment of our operational planning platform across secure U.S. military environments. The Senior Solutions Architect is a hands‑on, customer‑facing architect who leads solution design, validates feasibility through prototypes, and guides successful implementations. This role bridges pre‑sales discovery and post‑sales delivery, aligning technical decisions with business outcomes across security‑sensitive and enterprise environments.

About You

Architects are part of our Infrastructure and Security organization and we work across the company to solve hard challenges that unlock new markets and use cases. Successful candidates are much more than just technical experts; they display systems thinking and customer empathy to communicate technical trade-offs clearly and align outcomes. They collaborate in an async‑first way; document their work, decisions, and tradeoffs; and collaborate strongly across sales, product, and engineering orgs. Lastly, they raise the bar for security and operational excellence.

What You'll Do
  • Own regional, account, or program‑level solution architecture from discovery through delivery, including reference designs, sequence diagrams, and data contracts

  • Lead technical discovery, requirement shaping, and success criteria definition with customers and partners

  • Build credible prototypes and integration proofs to de‑risk performance, security, and interoperability

  • Influence product roadmaps with field feedback, patterns, and reusable components

  • Create clear architecture artifacts: threat models, deployment topologies, runbooks, and migration plans

  • Guide customers on scalability, reliability, cost, and operability trade‑offs

  • Mentor engineers and partner teams through design reviews, pairing, and office hours

  • Support opportunity cycles with demos, RFx responses, and executive‑level narratives

  • Champion best practices for cloud, data, networking, security, and compliance

What We Look For
  • 8+ years in specific technology domains such as software development, cloud computing, systems engineering, infrastructure, security, networking, or data and analytics

  • 5+ years designing and implementing applications and/or infrastructures, or consulting on the same

  • 10+ years of IT development or implementation/consulting experience in software or Internet industries

  • 3+ years in technology or software sales contexts supporting pre/post‑sales architecture

  • Active Top Secret Clearance required; SCI eligibility is a plus.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with enterprise and regulated deployments, including FedRAMP, STIGs, or similar frameworks

  • Proficiency designing with modern cloud and data stacks such as Kubernetes, containers, CI/CD, observability, Redis, streaming (Kafka/Redpanda), object storage (S3‑compatible), and relational stores (PostgreSQL)

  • Familiarity with modern web application patterns, real‑time collaboration, maps/geo, and data visualization

  • Strong integration background across identity (SSO/OIDC/SAML), networking (VPC peering, private link), and API design

  • Demonstrated ability to create architecture documentation and present to executive and deeply technical audiences

  • Comfort with hands‑on prototyping using TypeScript/Node/React or similar

What We Do

Before Onebrief, military planning and collaboration was slow, inefficient, and resource-intensive. Building slides with no version control as partners collaborated would have staffs spend weeks or months on a single product or document.

With Onebrief, these workflows are now simple and collaboration between large commands is efficient. Staff optimization is the key to building a more resilient, more effective military. Today Onebrief users report at least 2x time savings - and growing.

Onebrief is a first of its kind software for the military. While many others have tried to build a solution for this problem, Onebrief’s “card” structure for reusing data and enabling real time updates is what makes this possible. Core features and attributes that make this platform powerful include:
- Global Collaboration
- Real-Time Updates
- AI Automation
- Interoperability + Integrations
- Deployable across Secret and Top Secret Networks

Mission Driven

Onebrief is composed of professionals from backgrounds of all kinds - spanning veterans across forces and organizations, and technologists from leading-edge software giants.

Onebrief is more than just a software platform; it's a mission-driven company dedicated to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of military planning. By joining the team, you'll contribute to solutions that directly support national security and the work of service members.

Your work directly addresses critical challenges that military planners and operators face daily. Every line of code and every design decision contributes to real-world outcomes.

The software was designed and built by a team of experienced planners - lending a nuanced perspective on the challenges our partners face. Our team embeds alongside users - from
the Pentagon to the Indo-Pacific - to build a platform that meets their unique needs.

Rapid, Strategic Growth

Our users love the platform and growth is scaling, most recently reporting operational usage growth at a 19,600% annualized rate. Stronger utilization is underway and we’re at an exciting period of advancement.

As a rapidly growing organization, you'll directly influence its direction and long-term success. Over the past year we’ve seen exciting growth metrics:

First, our headcount has grown 150% YoY to keep pace with our product advancement and customer growth.

Our funding has skyrocketed, most recently raising our Series C, led by top-tier venture investors who have deep expertise in defense tech.

Why Work With Us

Impactful Transformation

At Onebrief, we believe optimizing the military staff is the most impactful thing - on a per-dollar basis - in defense tech right now. This has the potential to save the department of defense billions of dollars and save users countless hours. It’s a longstanding problem that we’re uniquely positioned to solve.
