We’re looking for a senior-level IT Solutions Architect to join a large-scale, mission-driven environment supporting critical systems and infrastructure. This is a hands-on solutions architect role focused on systems, application architecture, and Microsoft-based environments — not a pure cloud, network, or strategy-only position. You’ll work across teams to guide architecture decisions, influence technical direction, and ensure systems align with long-term business and technology strategy.
What You’ll Be Doing- Drive architecture strategy across enterprise systems and infrastructure
- Partner with business and technical teams to define complex requirements
- Design and model system workflows, data flows, and integrations
- Review and guide IT projects to ensure alignment with standards and best practices
- Evaluate new technologies, systems, and solutions
- Lead architectural reviews and provide direction on system design decisions
- Support testing strategies and system performance validation
- Contribute to governance, standards, and change management processes
- 14+ years of overall IT experience
- 10+ years in architecture, development, or system integration roles
- Strong background in systems design and enterprise-level architecture
- Ability to work cross-functionally (PMs, developers, analysts, admins)
- Excellent communication and stakeholder interaction skills
- Current hands-on technical experience — not just leadership or oversight
- Microsoft stack (Windows Server, Visual Studio, Office tools)
- .NET (C# / VB), Java, or similar modern development languages
- SQL databases and strong SQL skills
- Experience with system integration and data-driven applications
- Senior Systems Engineers who moved into architecture
- Lead Developers with architecture responsibilities
- Technical Architects with experience across applications + infrastructure
- Must be local to the Topeka, KS area (within commuting distance)
- Must be a U.S. Citizen
- This is a true architect role — not a senior engineer title alone
- Candidates with primarily cloud-only or network-only backgrounds will not be a fit
