Senior Enterprise Solution Architect / Growth Lead (5417)

Boston, MA

 

SMX is seeking a Senior Enterprise Solution Architect and Growth Lead for our State & Local Government practice. You will own product development, solution design and technical delivery for complex, multi-agency cloud migration, application modernization, AI/ML, and data & analytics engagements. This is a client-facing role with both delivery accountability and business development responsibilities — you’ll work directly with state executives, lead technical teams, mentor engineers, and contribute to proposals and capture efforts. This position is hybrid supporting a Boston, MA based customer.  

Essential Duties & Responsibilities:

  • Identify and shape new business opportunities by proactively engaging state and local government stakeholders, mapping agency pain points to SMX capabilities, and building a qualified pipeline aligned to the practice's growth targets.
  • Drive strategic product and service development by translating market trends, client feedback, and competitive intelligence into new solution offerings, repeatable accelerators, and go-to-market strategies for the SLG practice.
  • Lead solution architecture from discovery through implementation — produce architecture documents, decision records, and technical governance that meet regulatory compliance standards including FedRAMP Moderate, HIPAA, CJIS, and IRS Pub 1075.
  • Serve as trusted technical advisor to senior government executives; translate technical decisions into business impact.
  • Contribute to RFP/RFQ responses — write technical approaches, build solution architectures, develop sales materials.
  • Drive new and existing partner relationships; Navigate multi-agency, multi-vendor environments with competing constraints.

Required Skills/Experience:

  • Minimum 15 years in enterprise technology — architecture, engineering, or technical consulting.
  • 3+ years contributing to or leading business development and capture activities — including pipeline development, client relationship management, win-theme development, and strategic pricing/teaming decisions in government professional services.
  • Demonstrated ability to identify market opportunities and shape solution offerings — translating emerging technology trends (AI/ML, data modernization, cloud) into productized service lines or reusable frameworks that drive revenue growth.
  • Demonstrated experience in regulated environments (FedRAMP Moderate, HIPAA, CJIS, IRS Pub 1075).
  • State and local government experience — procurement cycles, compliance, public-sector IT realities.
  • AI/ML practical experience (Bedrock, SageMaker, or equivalent; generative AI, RAG architectures).
  • Application modernization — legacy to cloud-native (containerization, microservices, API-first).
  • Data & analytics fluency — data lakes, analytics platforms, BI tooling.
  • Strong communication — architecture documentation, executive presentations, proposal writing.
  • Multi-vendor delivery coordination (subcontractors, ISVs, client teams).

Desired Skills/Experience:

  • AWS Solutions Architect Professional or equivalent certification with other Cloud Service Providers.
  • Experience with state agencies such as Health and Human Services, Revenue, Transportation, or Labor and Workforce Development.
  • Medicaid or public benefits program technology experience.
  • Oracle database environments and migration strategies.
  • Awareness of Appian, ServiceNow, or low-code/BPM platforms in government sufficient to drive solutions that incorporate them.

Form CC-305

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
