Engineering Advisory Senior Consultant

Who We Are 

Our Engineering Strategy & Architecture team is a close-knit group of pragmatic thinkers who translate ambitious transformation goals into clear, actionable technology roadmaps. 

We are expanding our team to meet growing client demand in the Federal Government and Defense sectors for practical advice and hands-on support across complex engineering challenges, including: 

• 
  

  Legacy modernization 

  
  

• 
  

  Microservices and event-driven architecture 

  
  

• 
  

  Infrastructure and cloud migration 

  
  

• 
  

  Cloud optimization 

  
  

• 
  

  And more 

  
  

This role is ideal for high-performing, early-career engineering professionals who want to shape how clients use technology — particularly cloud, data, and Generative AI — to drive real business value. 

We operate at the intersection of engineering strategy, enterprise architecture, and cloud modernization, and we are leading the way in responsible Generative AI by building the governance frameworks and patterns that enable safe, scalable adoption.
