About The C.A.S.E. Engineering Group
The C.A.S.E. Engineering Group is an Information Technology (IT) engineering firm specializing in cybersecurity advisory services, modernizing IT architectures, implementing IT strategic plans, and engineering innovative systems and applications. C.A.S.E. stands for Cybersecurity, Architecture, Strategy, and Engineering. This reflects our core expertise and our belief that developing innovative solutions in unique environments requires a balanced, case-by-case approach backed by industry best practices.
The Mission: This position supports a high-visibility, mission-critical federal program focused on enterprise IT portfolio rationalization, modernization, and governance within a federal agency’s Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO). Our team discovers, documents, and rationalizes a large, complex IT estate spanning networks, infrastructure, applications, data, and identity to chart a clear path toward a consolidated, well-governed target state.
Position Overview
The Senior Enterprise Architect is the primary synthesis lead on the program, responsible for converting cross-domain discovery into actionable, target-state decisions. In this role, you will synthesize findings from every technical workstream (network, cloud, data, identity, security) into clear keep, reduce, eliminate, and consolidate dispositions. You will run the application portfolio rationalization and author the target architecture, reference patterns, and multi-year transition roadmap.
Our Philosophy: Collection is not the value — the decisions are, and this seat owns them.- Location: Full-time, onsite in Washington, D.C. (145 N. St NE, Washington DC 20002]). Note: Onsite presence is required to closely collaborate with agency executive leadership and support high-level governance processes.
- Schedule: Normal business hours, with occasional flexibility required to support critical program milestones.
Key Responsibilities
- Architectural Leadership: Author the target-state architecture, reusable reference patterns, and the multi-year transition roadmap for a complex federal IT estate.
- Portfolio Rationalization: Drive the application portfolio rationalization process; analyze cross-domain findings to deliver clear disposition determinations (keep, reduce, eliminate, consolidate).
- Financial & Efficiency Modeling: Frame the efficiency and cost-avoidance metrics that the federal government will use to apply cost figures and realize savings.
- Stakeholder Engagement: Partner closely with cross-functional technical workstreams (Cloud, Identity, Security, etc.) to align technical baselines with target-state outcomes without needing direct authority.
- Executive Briefings: Produce professional-grade enterprise architecture artifacts and models, and confidently brief strategic decisions and recommendations to federal stakeholders and OCIO leadership.
Qualifications
Education & Certifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, IT, or a related field (Master’s degree a plus).
- Required: A certification grounded in the Federal Enterprise Architecture Framework (FEAF), such as the FEAC Institute Certified Enterprise Architect (CEA).
- Preferred: Cloud solutions architecture certifications (AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional or Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert), Technology Business Management (TBM) credentials, or ITIL 4 Foundation.
Experience & Technical Expertise
- 5+ years of progressive enterprise architecture experience, with a proven track record in deep portfolio-rationalization.
- Demonstrated success turning complex IT discovery into an authoritative baseline that leadership can actively execute against.
- Deep working knowledge of federal frameworks (e.g., FEAF, NIST SP 800-53) and IT governance structures.
- Exceptional executive-level written and verbal communication skills; strong documentation discipline is a must.
Why Join C.A.S.E.?
- High-Impact Work: Truly own the target-state architecture and roadmap for a massive federal modernization effort.
- Collaborative Culture: Work alongside a senior, multidisciplinary team of elite architects and engineers who value technical excellence.
- Professional Evolution: Be a foundational member of a growing company that prioritizes innovation over bureaucracy.
Benefits & Perks
- Competitive Salary & Performance Bonuses
- Comprehensive Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance
- Generous Paid Time Off (PTO) and Paid Federal Holidays
