The IoT / Edge Architect will serve as the technical lead for the design, integration, and management of secure, scalable IoT and edge computing solutions supporting the client. This role is responsible for architecting the ingestion, processing, and secure management of dosimeter and sensor data from distributed edge devices through AWS GovCloud, ensuring compliance with DoD Impact Level 4 (IL4) and FedRAMP requirements. The architect will collaborate with cross-functional teams—including cloud, cybersecurity, DevSecOps, and stakeholders—to deliver resilient, compliant, and high-performing IoT solutions that support mission-critical and safety objectives.
Job Responsibility
IoT/Edge Solution Architecture: Lead the technical strategy and design for inheriting, integrating, and modernizing client's IoT-based radiation exposure tracking environment. Define requirements for data ingestion, modeling, system interoperability, and secure device management
Cloud Integration & Compliance: Architect and oversee AWS GovCloud landing zone setup, ensuring government compliance, secure network segmentation, and adherence to DoD CC SRG IL4 standards. Define and enforce cloud security configurations, policies, and audit requirements
Device Management & Security: Implement secure onboarding, provisioning, and lifecycle management for IoT devices (e.g., dosimeters, gateways) using AWS IoT Device Management, X.509 certificates, and mTLS. Oversee certificate rotation, anomaly detection, and device posture monitoring via AWS IoT Device Defender
Data Pipeline & Processing: Design and optimize data flows from edge devices to cloud storage (S3), message queues (SQS), and processing layers (Lambda, Glue, Aurora). Ensure data encryption at rest and in transit, and implement robust ETL pipelines for legacy and real-time data
DevSecOps & Automation: Guide DevSecOps teams in automating infrastructure deployment (IaC), compliance checks, and continuous monitoring using AWS-native tools (CloudFormation, Config, CloudWatch, Security Hub)
Stakeholder Engagement: Serve as the senior technical representative in engagements with stakeholders, Client, and NTT DATA leadership. Communicate architecture decisions, risks, and solution tradeoffs to both technical and non-technical audiences
Documentation & Knowledge Transfer: Maintain comprehensive architecture documentation, technical artifacts, and processes to enable seamless scaling and knowledge continuity across future task orders

Minimum 3 years of experience architecting solutions on AWS, Azure, or GCP, including at least 1 year deploying or designing AWS IoT, AWS Greengrass, or equivalent edge-compute frameworks
Minimum 3 years of experience applying security controls for IoT/edge systems, including certificate-based authentication, secure firmware update processes, FIPS-compliant cryptography, and RBAC/IAM models
Minimum 3 years of experience developing containerized or microservices-based architectures
Minimum 2 years integrating edge or IoT systems into secure CI/CD pipelines, automated deployment frameworks, and environment-as-code configurations
Ability to obtain a secret clearance
Nice to have
Experience with AWS IoT, AWS Greengrass, or Azure IoT Edge in regulated or mission-critical environments
Background supporting DoD, DHS, or other federal programs involving operational technology or field-deployed sensing devices
Knowledge of secure firmware-update pipelines, device-identity lifecycle management, and modern hardware-root-of-trust technologies
Familiarity with Navy or government cybersecurity frameworks, including RMF, STIGs, and supply-chain-risk controls for connected devices
Experience designing IoT or edge solutions involving environmental constraints such as intermittent connectivity, constrained compute, or ruggedized hardware
Understanding of large-scale telemetry ingestion, time-series data architectures, and device-fleet operational monitoring
Experience collaborating with multidisciplinary teams—DevSecOps, cybersecurity, test automation, data engineering, and device engineering—within an Agile delivery model
Relevant industry certifications (e.g., AWS Solutions Architect, IoT-related certifications, security certifications such as CISSP or CCSP)
