Solutions Architect

Job Description

Exciting opportunity! We’re partnering with a leading client to find a Solutions Architect to join their team. You’ll become the go-to technical authority for how a suite of mission-critical business applications is designed, secured, upgraded, and modernized. Your reviews will decide which vendors get approved, which migrations move forward, and how new AI and data platforms are adopted safely. If you like owning architecture decisions end to end, from first proposal through implementation, this role is built for you.

\n

What You’ll Own

\n

\n
• You’ll have the opportunity to set architecture direction, version support and upgrade strategy for a suite of enterprise business applications, including patch and enablement impact.

\n

• You’ll lead vendor risk assessments and architecture reviews for a document management system replacement, from capability gap analysis and rough order of magnitude (ROM) proposal evaluation through technical ownership of implementation.

\n

• You’ll guide architecture impact assessments for API (application programming interface) gateway migrations, such as a move to TYK, and for data pipeline and change data capture (CDC) initiatives supporting a Databricks migration.

\n

• You’ll evaluate hosting options for emerging AI platforms, including open-source large language models (LLMs), on-premises appliances and cloud container services, against strict security and compliance standards.

\n

• You’ll run architecture review sessions with application teams, covering security, scalability, integration, and regulatory compliance.

\n

• You’ll define and maintain architecture standards, decision records and compliance documentation, and track architecture metrics and service level agreements (SLAs) for the systems you review.

\n

What You Bring

\n

Must-haves:

\n

\n
• 5+ years in application, solutions, or enterprise architecture, with a record of leading formal architecture reviews.

\n

• Hands-on experience with AWS (Amazon Web Services) and on-premises or hybrid Linux environments.

\n

• Working knowledge of Python, TypeScript, or JavaScript, enough to review designs and guide development teams credibly.

\n

• Experience assessing vendors and proposals, including risk analysis and technical due diligence.

\n

• U.S. citizenship or permanent residency, which federal export control requirements make mandatory for this role.

\n

\n

Nice-to-haves:

\n

\n
• Experience with API gateways, data pipelines, or Databricks.

\n

• Experience in regulated environments, where you’ve kept compliance documentation current as new platforms were introduced.

\n

\n

\n

What We Offer

\n

\n
• A contract role (W2 or 1099) with a high-visibility seat on major modernization programs.

\n

• On-site role based within the Palm Beach County area.

\n

• Real decision-making authority: your architecture calls shape vendor selections and platform strategy.

\n

• The chance to mentor junior architects and engineers while working on modern AI and data platform initiatives.

About the Team

\n

You’ll partner closely with the enterprise architecture group, application teams, vendors, and other contractors. Your work has to align with corporate standards, so expect collaborative reviews rather than solo decision-making. This is a team that relies on its architects as trusted authorities, and your recommendations carry weight.
