Solutions Architect
OM Group, Inc. is hiring a Technical Solutions Architect to support our corporate and contract operations. This person will be adept at translating customer problems into credible, differentiated technical approaches, from first client conversations through proposal submission. This role sits at the center of our IT modernization, data analytics, and data/application migration work for the U.S. Army and adjacent federal agencies. You'll work closely with company leadership to help define the technical roadmap — particularly around AI-enabling our migration and analytics offerings — that keeps us competitive as the market shifts toward commercial, dual-use, and AI-ready solutions.
Responsibilities
Technical Solutioning During Capture
- Join capture conversations with program offices and prospective customers to answer technical questions in real time and establish credibility beyond what a capture lead alone can convey
- Translate customer pain points surfaced during capture into early, directionally sound technical concepts — enough substance to differentiate us in a conversation, not yet a full design
- Support pre-RFP intelligence gathering by identifying technical constraints, integration points, or risks a customer may not state outright
- Contribute technical input to go/no-go decisions: is this something we can credibly build, staff, and deliver
Technical Ownership During Proposal Phase
- Own the technical volume end to end once a capture matures into a solicitation: architecture, delivery methodology, staffing approach, technical risk mitigation, and cost realism
- Translate capture's win themes into a technical approach that actually substantiates them — the solution has to be real, not just a narrative wrapper
- Partner with the proposal manager on compliance and schedule, while retaining final authority over technical content and approach.
- Represent the company in technical evaluation activities (demos, orals, technical exchange meetings) where the customer is assessing feasibility directly
R&D and Future Technical Direction
- Help define and maintain a technical roadmap that keeps our migration and analytics offerings competitive — in particular, making our data work demonstrably AI-ready (data quality/labeling for model consumption, MLOps pipelines, agentic tooling) rather than treating AI as a separate practice
- Identify capability gaps surfaced repeatedly across captures and proposals, and turn recurring technical themes into reusable internal assets (reference architectures, demo environments, proof-of-concept tools)
- Technical Oversight of Contract Delivery (Partially Billable or Overhead)
Requirements
- 7+ years designing and delivering IT modernization, data analytics, or data/application migration solutions, with at least 3 years in a role spanning both pre-sales/capture support and proposal technical ownership
- Demonstrated experience writing and defending technical proposal volumes for federal contracts — you can point to specific wins where your technical approach was a differentiator
- Hands-on depth in cloud migration, data engineering/analytics architecture, and legacy system modernization approaches[DJ1]
- Working knowledge of DoD (ideally Army) technical environments, security requirements, and acquisition processes
- Comfortable being customer-facing in technical conversations — able to field hard questions live, not just in a written deliverable
- Active or recently active security clearance, or ability to obtain one
- Strong technical writing: able to produce a clear, evaluator-friendly technical narrative under proposal deadline pressure
- Experience with AI/ML-adjacent data engineering — data pipelines, labeling/quality processes, or MLOps — applied to a federal or defense context preferred
- Prior involvement in an OTA/CSO-based pursuit preferred
- Experience building internal reusable technical assets (reference architectures, demo environments) rather than one-off proposal content preferred
- Prior experience at a small or mid-tier govcon where you had to own technical scope without a large supporting architecture team preferred
- Remote eligible with up to 25% travel
- Compensation will be determined based on several factors, including relevant experience, education, skills, certifications, and market conditions, with an expected range of $145,000 to $175,000
