Systems Architect, SME

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the job description. Key content. Let's extract sections: - About the role: The initial paragraph after "Job Description:"? Actually there is a description: "We are seeking a strategic Systems Architect SME to lead a highly technical team..." That's about the role. - Responsibilities: The "WHAT YOU WILL DO: Core Priorities & Responsibilities" list. - Requirements / Qualifications: There's "WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED:" and "Minimum Qualifications", "Preferred Qualifications". Also "Skills:" and "Certifications:" earlier. - Skills: There's a "Skills:" line early: "Skills: Job Qualifications: Enterprise Infrastructures, Enterprise Systems, System Infrastructure, Systems Design, Virtualization Certifications: None Experience: 15 + years of related experience US Citizenship Required: Yes". That seems like a weird formatting. Actually the posting includes a "Skills:" line then "Job Qualifications:" etc. Might be a misformat. We'll treat that as Skills and Qualifications. - Certifications: "Certifications: None" early, later "DoW 8140 IAT Level II required (e.g., Security+ CE or equivalent) at time of hire. VMware Certified Professional (VCP) preferred. CMMI-DEV/SVC Level 3 process familiarity preferred." Also later "Must obtain and maintain DoD 8140 IAT Level II certification within the timeline required by contract policy. (e.g., Security+ CE or equivalent at time of hire.)" - Experience: "15 + years of related experience" - US Citizenship Required: Yes - Clearance: Must currently possess Top Secret, able to obtain Top Secret/SCI, TS/SCI preferred. - Pay: "The likely salary range for this position is $187,179 - $253,000." - Schedule: "Scheduled Weekly Hours: 40", "Travel Required: Less than 10%", "Telecommuting Options: Onsite", "Work location is Fort Belvoir, VA, with occasional CONUS travel in support of programming requirements. (Less than 10% travel). Not a remote role." - Benefits: "WHAT GDIT CAN OFFER:" includes Growth, Support, Rewards, Community. Also "Total Rewards At GDIT:" details benefits. We need to decide sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills, Certifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly combine Requirements and Qualifications. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. We must output only HTML fragment, no /. Use

for headings,

• for lists,

  for prose. We need to preserve all substantive info; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details like specific systems, tasks, etc. We'll structure:

  About the role

  We are seeking a strategic Systems Architect SME to lead a highly technical team of systems, network, software and database engineers supporting the Defense Threat Reduction Agency's (DTRA) Defense Stockpile Management System (DSMS) Enterprise. This program provides full lifecycle sustainment for a system supporting accountability and reporting for DTRA's Nuclear Enterprise Directorate. In this role, you will serve as the program's technical lead and senior advisor to Program Management, overseeing the reliability, security, and modernization of the DSMS enterprise infrastructure, including the DIAMONDS system of record, the JADE development environment, and the NIMACS application platform. You will serve as the critical bridge between technical execution and Government stakeholder requirements, guiding the enterprise modernization roadmap, including the ongoing JADE-to-Azure IL5 cloud migration, while ensuring seamless collaboration across all IT engineering disciplines in a highly secure, regulated environment governed by DoD Risk Management Framework and continuous Authority to Operate (ATO) requirements.

  Note: The text says "DoW Risk Management Framework" but likely DoD. We'll keep as in source: "DoW Risk Management Framework". Keep exactly.

  Responsibilities

  • Serve as the Technical Lead for the program, providing senior technical advisory support to the Program Manager and Deputy Program Manager on architecture decisions, technical risk, resource trade-offs, and modernization priorities across all task areas.
  • Represent the technical position of the program in Government management reviews, technical exchange meetings, and design review boards, and translate technical risk into terms Program Management can use to inform cost, schedule, and staffing decisions.
  • Direct, mentor, and empower a team of systems administrators and infrastructure engineers, driving operational excellence, workload prioritization, and technical skill development in support of a 99.7% monthly operational availability requirement across the DIAMONDS Enterprise and Central/Core virtual computing environments.
  • Drive the architectural design and health of a complex environment, including but not limited to VMware vSphere (vSAN, vROPs, SRM, vRA, Horizon VDI), Windows core service servers, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, 3rd party applications, IIS, Tomcat Apache, and databases (Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle). Support the DIAMONDS, JADE, and DATS operating environments, including Dell EMC server hardware and Cisco network devices.
  • Enforce strict security governance across the enterprise systems infrastructure. Ensure continuous compliance with DISA STIG security policies and implementation scheduling, manage the Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M), update System Security Plan and Risk Management Framework (RMF) control documentation, manage PKI certificate servers, Active Directory, Group Policy, and oversee RSA user authentication servers.
  • Support the planning, design, and fielding of Zero Trust architecture and Comply-to-Connect (C2C) requirements in accordance with mandated DoD policy deadlines.
  • Break down silos by partnering closely with Network Engineering, Cybersecurity, Application Development, Database Administration, Field Support, and the DIAMONDS Support Center (DSC) to deliver cohesive, highly available services across all task areas.
  • Support quarterly Disaster Recovery switchover testing, meeting a two-hour Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and translate complex stakeholder requirements into actionable modernization strategies.
  • Bridge the gap between legacy infrastructure constraints and future-state performance and security goals, including support for the migration of the JADE environment from on-premises infrastructure to the J6 IL5 Azure cloud.
  • Develop and maintain DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF) artifacts for all network, host, workstation, and database systems, and support formal Government design reviews with zero major rework.
  • Support enterprise lifecycle management activities, including hardware and software refresh planning, end-of-life tracking, and cost estimation for full lifecycle refresh, ensuring 180-day advance alerts for all affected items.

  Requirements

  We need to combine Minimum Qualifications and maybe also Required sections. We have: - Must currently possess a Top-Secret clearance and be able to obtain and maintain SCI eligibility. TS/SCI preferred. - US Citizenship Required: Yes - 15+ years of related work experience. - BA/BS degree or equivalent. - Proven experience serving as a technical lead or chief architect advising program or senior management on technical strategy, risk, and resourcing decisions on a large, complex IT program, ideally within a Defense or Intelligence Community operational setting. - Proven experience managing, leading, and mentoring technical teams (systems administrators, infrastructure engineers, or similar) in an enterprise environment. - Deep technical expertise managing mixed operating system environments, specifically Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Windows Server, within a DISA STIG-compliant environment. - Hands-on architectural experience with enterprise virtualization (VMware vSphere/vCenter) and physical server hardware management, including experience supporting high-availability (99%+ uptime) production environments. - Strong foundational knowledge of Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) and Microsoft Exchange. - Working knowledge of Risk Management Framework (RMF), continuous monitoring principles (NIST SP 800-137), and POA&M management in a DoD accredited system environment. - Exceptional interpersonal skills with a demonstrated ability to present technical roadmaps, risks, and solutions clearly to non-technical stakeholders and Government program leadership. - Must obtain and maintain DoD 8140 IAT Level II certification within the timeline required by contract policy. (e.g., Security+ CE or equivalent at time of hire.) - Work location is Fort Belvoir, VA, with occasional CONUS travel in support of programming requirements. (Less than 10% travel). Not a remote role. We could put these in a
  . But also there is a "Skills:" line early: "Skills: Job Qualifications: Enterprise Infrastructures, Enterprise Systems, System Infrastructure, Systems Design, Virtualization Certifications: None Experience: 15 + years of related experience US Citizenship Required: Yes". That seems redundant; we already captured experience and citizenship. We'll ignore duplication. We also have "Certifications: None" early but later certifications required. We'll treat certifications separately. Thus we may have sections: Requirements (minimum qualifications), Preferred Qualifications, Certifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we must prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Requirements and Preferred Qualifications into one "Requirements" section with sub-bullets marking preferred. Or separate. Given instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine Requirements and Preferred Qualifications into a single "Requirements" section, with bullet points distinguishing required vs preferred? But we must not invent headings like "Preferred Qualifications" if we combine; we could still have a subsection but that's extra heading. Better to have one "Requirements" section containing both required and preferred bullets, maybe label them in text. But we must not lose info. We'll include all. We'll also have a "Skills" section for the specific skills list: Enterprise Infrastructure Architecture, Virtualization Engineering (VMware vSphere), DoDAF Systems Design, RMF/Continuous ATO Compliance, Zero Trust Architecture. Also maybe list others like Active Directory, etc. But those are covered in requirements. However the "Skills:" line early includes "Enterprise Infrastructures, Enterprise Systems, System Infrastructure, Systems Design, Virtualization". We'll capture that. We'll also have a "Certifications" section: DoW 8140 IAT Level II required (e.g., Security+ CE or equivalent) at time of hire. VMware Certified Professional (VCP) preferred. CMMI-DEV/SVC Level 3 process familiarity preferred. Also Must obtain and maintain DoD 8140 IAT Level II certification within timeline. We'll have "Benefits" section: summarise WHAT GDIT CAN OFFER and Total Rewards details. We'll have "Pay" section: salary range. We'll have "Schedule" section: weekly hours, travel, telecommuting, work location. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Now craft HTML. We'll need to ensure we don't repeat job title. Let's write. We'll use
