Enterprise Architect - Multi-Domain C2 & Strategic Mission Architecture

GXM is seeking a full-time Enterprise Architect to support enterprise architecture development, digital engineering initiatives, and strategic mission integration activities supporting advanced operational Command and Control (C2) environments.

The ideal candidate will possess deep expertise in Enterprise Architecture, operational mission systems, Digital Engineering, and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) with the ability to architect scalable operational solutions across cloud infrastructure, mission applications, operational data environments, cyber security domains and distributed mission systems. This role serves as the strategic architecture authority responsible for defining the target state operational architecture, integrations standards, interoperability frameworks, and long-term scalability model supporting integrated multi-domain mission operations.

This individual will support modernization initiatives involving integrated C2 architectures, cloud-native mission systems, operational data fusion environments, AI/ML-enabled analytics platforms, and Joint Force operational integration constructs across defense environments.

This role is onsite in Colorado Springs, CO. Hybrid flexibility may be available over time based on mission requirements, program execution needs and achievement of objectives.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the strategic architecture authority for integrated multi-domain C2 mission environment.
• Develop and maintain enterprise and operational system architectures supporting integrated operational and mission environments.
• Define and maintain the overall C2 architecture baseline, including operational concepts, integration standards, interface strategies, interoperability frameworks, and long-term scalability models.
• Apply Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies to support system architecture development, requirements traceability, integration planning, digital engineering and lifecycle engineering activities.
• Develop and maintain engineering artifacts, system models, interface definitions, and architecture products, operational workflows, and reference architectures supporting integrated mission operations.
• Utilize MBSE tools and enterprise architecture frameworks to support digital engineering and operational mission architecture activities.
• Develop integrated engineering execution plans and schedules using Cameo Systems Modeler or similar enterprise planning tools.
• Architect scalable cloud, hybrid-cloud, and distributed system environments supporting operational mission needs.
• Define enterprise integration standards supporting APIs, middleware, event-driven architectures, operational data exchange frameworks, and mission interoperability requirements.
• Contribute to technical solution development involving AI/ML-enabled operation analytics, DevSecOps pipelines, cybersecurity architectures, software engineering, and operational data fusion capabilities.
• Develop integrated engineering execution roadmaps, transition architectures, modernization strategies, and scalability frameworks supporting follow-on operational deployment.
• Collaborate with engineering teams, leadership, and government stakeholders to refine operational mission architectures.
• U.S. Citizen and Active TS/SCI clearance required.
• Bachelor’s degree in systems engineering, Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related technical field.
• 8+ years of experience supporting enterprise architecture, operational mission systems, systems engineering, or strategic modernization initiatives within defense or intelligence environments.
• Strong understanding of Enterprise Architecture, Digital Engineering, and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) principles.
• Experience defining architecture governance standards, integration frameworks, interface strategies, and target-state operational architecture.
• Experience developing enterprise/system architectures, engineering artifacts, integration strategies, and operational workflows.
• Experience using Cameo Systems Modeler or other Digital Engineering toolsets to develop operational architecture products, integrated engineering execution models, system interaction diagrams, mission workflows, interface definitions, and requirements traceability artifacts supporting complex mission and operational environments.
• Understanding of cloud architectures, DevSecOps, cybersecurity, AI/ML, system integration, and enterprise modernization approaches.
• Strong communication, collaboration, and technical writing skills.
• Proven ability to communicate complex technical architectures to Government leadership, operational stakeholders, and engineering teams.

Desired Qualifications

• Experience supporting defense, space, or multi-domain operational environments.
• Experience supporting DoD, federal mission systems, enterprise modernization, or operational C2 environments.
• Experience with MBSE tools such as Cameo Systems Modeler or other Digital Engineering tools.
• Expert with DoDAF, UAF, SysML, BPMN, and related enterprise architecture, operational architecture, MBSE frameworks supporting DoD mission engineering and digital engineering initiatives.
• Experience with enterprise cloud platforms, cloud-native and hybrid-cloud environments, container orchestration technologies, and distributed mission infrastructure supporting secure operational workloads.
• Knowledge of RMF, DISA STIGs, and Zero Trust cybersecurity frameworks.
• Experience supporting proposals, capture, or strategic modernization efforts for federal or defense programs.
