Description & Requirements
The Vice President, Enterprise Architect serves as the senior leader responsible for the design, governance, and optimization of the Maximus enterprise architecture - the missions, functions, processes, people and systems (spanning Salesforce, ServiceNow, Smartsheet, and related platforms) that serve as our foundation. This executive role bridges mission systems engineering, enterprise architecture, and compliance-driven modernization, ensuring secure, scalable, and future-ready solutions that align with federal and defense regulatory frameworks (FedRAMP, CMMC, NIST 800-53, HIPAA, GDPR, SOX).
The VP leads the strategic unification of enterprise applications, data flows, and identity security fabric to enable digital transformation across Maximus' federal, state, and global portfolios. This includes aligning platforms to business outcomes, integrating cross-domain data, and embedding governance guardrails for confidentiality, integrity, and availability-core tenets of enterprise architecture.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
- Lead the enterprise architecture practice, defining design standards, integrations, and interoperability across Salesforce, ServiceNow, Smartsheet, and future SaaS platforms.
- Chair the Enterprise Architecture Review Board (EARB) to ensure consistency, compliance, and traceability. Establish standards for documentation, data lineage, and system interfaces.
- Design secure, automated data flows across enterprise systems using APIs, middleware, and data fabrics. Implement encryption, masking, audit logging, and RBAC/ABAC controls.
- Partner with Cybersecurity and Audit teams to embed NIST, CMMC, and FedRAMP requirements into change management and CI/CD processes.
- Lead modernization initiatives aligning enterprise systems with mission outcomes using agile and model-based architecture practices.
- Collaborate with senior leaders across operations, finance, and technology to translate strategic goals into executable architecture roadmaps.
- Develop AI-ready architecture patterns to support secure integration of automation and agentic AI solutions.
