This role requires structured thinking and strong executive communication. You will create clear, decision-oriented artifacts and deliver high-quality presentations that connect technical capabilities to mission outcomes.

  • Contribute to proposal and capture efforts, contributing to technical volumes, solution narratives, and helping to shape the response strategy.  
  • Build and sustain trusted customer relationships by demonstrating domain awareness, technical credibility, and a consistent focus on mission outcomes
  • Mentor junior Solution Architects and Solution Engineers, establishing best practices for discovery, solutioning, and customer engagement
  • Leverage and contribute to reusable assets, patterns, and accelerators that improve delivery consistency and speed
  • Lead end-to-end customer engagements across multiple concurrent opportunities, ensuring consistency, scalability, and alignment to enterprise mission needs
