About the Role
We are seeking a Lead Platform Architect to provide technical leadership and architectural oversight across a complex ecosystem of interconnected platforms, shared services, and mission capabilities. The Lead Platform Architect will define and maintain the overarching technical architecture that enables multiple platforms to operate as a cohesive enterprise capability. This role will establish architectural boundaries, interfaces, shared services, communication patterns, and technical standards, while enabling individual platform teams to maintain ownership of detailed implementation within their respective areas. Because the platform ecosystem will continue to evolve, the Lead Platform Architect will design for flexibility, interoperability, and long-term sustainability, ensuring platforms can be added, replaced, consolidated, or retired without requiring broad redesign of the overall environment.
