Datacenter Architect

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real content. Need to extract from posting. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. Keep substantive info. We need to decide sections: About the role: maybe the JOB SUMMARY and description of role. Responsibilities: list of essential job functions. Requirements: maybe required skills and experience? Qualifications: maybe location, clearance, etc. Skills: maybe list of required skills? Benefits: The Perks section. Pay: Salary range. Schedule: maybe location full-time on-site? Not explicit schedule but location says Full Time/ On-Site. Could treat as Schedule? Might be better to put location under Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real content. Let's parse content: Company description: "Who is Trace3?Trace3 is a leading Transformative IT Authority..." That's about company, not role. Could be About the role? Actually "About the role" is about the job, not company. But we could put company description under About the role? Might be okay. However we have JOB SUMMARY which describes role. So About the role could contain JOB SUMMARY and maybe company overview. Responsibilities: SUMMARY OF ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS (list). We'll put as

• . Requirements: maybe "REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:" list. Could be Requirements or Skills. The instruction separate Requirements and Skills. We could put Requirements as mandatory experience (e.g., demonstrated experience as customer-facing technical lead, etc.) and Skills as specific technical skills list. But the list includes both experience and skills. Might split: Requirements: experience (customer-facing technical lead, etc.) and Skills: technical knowledge list. However we need to avoid duplication. Qualifications: location, clearance, maybe education? Not given. Could include location (Full Time/On-Site in Linthicum Heights, MD or Annapolis Junction, MD), clearance (Top Secret required, TS/SCI preferred). Also maybe "This position can be either W2 Contract or FTE". That's employment type. Benefits: The Perks section bullet list. Pay: Salary range: $185,001 to $198,458.50. Also mention Estimated Pay Range same. Schedule: maybe "Full Time/ On-Site". Could be schedule: Full-time, on-site. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like specific technologies, etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft sections:

  Job Summary: The Regional Senior Principal Engineer/Enterprise Architect IV serves as a customer-facing technical lead for the discovery, architecture, design, and modernization of secure on-premises and hybrid datacenter environments. The role translates mission objectives, business requirements, workload needs, operational constraints, and security obligations into practical, supportable architectures for regulated and mission‑critical customers.

  But we need to avoid repeating job title as heading; we can still mention it in prose. Now Responsibilities:

  Responsibilities

  • Serve as the senior, customer-facing technical lead for datacenter discovery, architecture, design, modernization, and solution shaping engagements.
  • Lead structured workshops with executive sponsors, engineering, infrastructure, platform, cybersecurity, compliance, program‑management, and application stakeholders.
  • Translate mission objectives, user and workload requirements, performance targets, availability goals, growth expectations, recovery objectives, and regulatory constraints into actionable architectures.
  • Develop and communicate end‑to‑end modern datacenter architectures spanning compute, accelerated/GPU compute, network, storage, backup and disaster recovery, virtualization, containers, shared services, observability, and operational management.
  • Design hybrid‑cloud solutions integrating on‑premises environments with Microsoft Azure Government and Microsoft GCC‑High while addressing identity, secure connectivity, data protection, workload placement, governance, compliance, and operational boundaries.
  • Apply Zero Trust Architecture and defense‑in‑depth principles across identity, access, segmentation, endpoint and workload protection, encryption, key and certificate management, logging, observability, vulnerability management, and security operations.
  • Perform capacity planning, workload placement, performance analysis, resiliency planning, technology evaluation, lifecycle planning, and migration or modernization planning for current and target environments.
  • Produce reference architectures, high‑level and detailed designs, diagrams, sizing inputs, bills of materials, implementation roadmaps, controls mappings, assumptions, risks, and decision records.
  • Present complex technical concepts to technical and non‑technical audiences; lead architecture reviews, whiteboarding sessions, demonstrations, proposal responses, statements of work, and executive briefings.
  Now Requirements: maybe experience as customer-facing technical lead, etc. Let's extract from REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE: first bullet: "Demonstrated experience as a customer-facing technical lead, enterprise architect, solutions architect, principal engineer, or equivalent for complex datacenter or infrastructure modernization initiatives." Also "Ability to work across multiple technology domains without relying solely on a single-vendor specialty; relevant vendor certifications or equivalent hands‑on expertise are desirable." Also "Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, travel to customer or partner locations as needed, and maintain technical credibility throughout the sales, design, and delivery lifecycle." Also "Excellent written, verbal, presentation, facilitation, and technical‑diagramming skills, with the ability to communicate effectively with customers, executives, engineers, cybersecurity professionals, program managers, partners, and sales teams." That's more skills though. We could separate: Requirements: experience and ability to work independently, travel, etc. Skills: technical knowledge list. Let's do:

  Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience as a customer‑facing technical lead, enterprise architect, solutions architect, principal engineer, or equivalent for complex datacenter or infrastructure modernization initiatives.
  • Ability to work across multiple technology domains without relying solely on a single‑vendor specialty; relevant vendor certifications or equivalent hands‑on expertise are desirable.
  • Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, travel to customer or partner locations as needed, and maintain technical credibility throughout the sales, design, and delivery lifecycle.
  • Excellent written, verbal, presentation, facilitation, and technical‑diagramming skills, with the ability to communicate effectively with customers, executives, engineers, cybersecurity professionals, program managers, partners, and sales teams.
  Now Skills: technical knowledge list from REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE: substantive architecture experience across modern datacenter stack, virtualization, Kubernetes, networking, storage, infrastructure automation, Zero Trust, hybrid‑cloud with Microsoft Azure Government/GCC‑High, ability to conduct structured discovery, etc. Also "Strong knowledge of virtualization architecture, including VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper‑V, or comparable hypervisor technologies; clustering, high availability, resource management, encryption, lifecycle management, and migration considerations." etc. We'll list them as bullet points.

  Skills

  • Substantive architecture experience across the modern datacenter stack, including x86 compute, accelerated/GPU compute, servers, HCI or converged infrastructure, switching and routing, storage, backup and disaster recovery, virtualization, containers, management platforms, monitoring, and physical datacenter considerations.
  • Strong knowledge of virtualization architecture, including VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper‑V, or comparable hypervisor technologies; clustering, high availability, resource management, encryption, lifecycle management, and migration considerations.
  • Working knowledge of Kubernetes and enterprise container platforms, including control‑plane and worker‑node design, registries, namespaces, resource isolation, cluster operations, and platform security.
  • Strong networking knowledge, including Ethernet and high‑speed datacenter fabrics, VLANs, VRFs, routing, segmentation, out‑of‑band management, microsegmentation, software‑defined networking, and network performance for AI and data‑intensive workloads.
  • Strong storage and data‑protection knowledge across block, file, and object storage; all‑flash and scale‑out architectures; RAID or erasure coding; performance tiers; backup, replication, disaster recovery, and recovery objectives.
  • Practical experience with infrastructure automation and lifecycle management using technologies such as Terraform, Ansible, APIs, configuration‑management platforms, CI/CD, GitOps, and policy‑driven provisioning.
  • Applied knowledge of Zero Trust Architecture, including identity and federation, MFA, RBAC/ABAC, privileged access, microsegmentation, endpoint and workload protection, encryption in transit and at rest, PKI, HSM/KMS concepts, SIEM integration, observability, and vulnerability management.
  • Experience designing or integrating hybrid‑cloud architectures involving Microsoft Azure Government and Microsoft GCC‑High, including secure connectivity, identity, workload placement, data protection, governance, and operational integration with on‑premises environments.
  • Ability to conduct structured discovery, assess current‑state environments, identify gaps and risks, estimate capacity and growth, and convert findings into reference architectures and actionable roadmaps.
  Now Qualifications: location, clearance, employment type (W2 Contract or FTE). Also maybe "This position can be either W2 Contract or FTE". Also maybe "Full Time/ On-Site in Linthicum Heights, MD or Annapolis Junction, MD". Also "CLEARANCE REQUIRMENT: Top Secret required, TS/SCI preferred". Also maybe "PHYSICAL DEMANDS" and "WORK ENVIRONMENT" could be under Qualifications? But they are not exactly qualifications; they are demands and environment. Could be separate but we have no heading for them. Could include under Qualifications as additional info. We'll put:

  Qualifications

  • Location: Full‑time, on‑site in Linthicum Heights, MD or Annapolis Junction, MD.
  • Clearance: Top Secret required; TS/SCI preferred.
  • Employment type: Position can be either W2 Contract or FTE.
