Job Description
The CMM Data Architect will work as part of an agile development team to build and support the modernization of enterprise-class software applications.
The successful candidate should be capable of architecting and developing cloud database infrastructure. The duties and assignments include translating high-level requirements into data storage solutions, creating PoCs and/or prototypes to evaluate various cloud database technologies, architecting and implementing cloud-based database solutions on various platforms.
The Data Architect will lead the design and implementation of secure, scalable, and high-performing database architectures across cloud-native, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments in support of CMSO modernization initiatives. This role develops Architecture Design Documents that reflect best practices aligned with the Government's selected Cloud Service Providers. The Data Architect will work closely with enterprise teams to shape database standards, assess return on investment, and recommend cost-effective, performance-optimized solutions.
The architect supports both strategic and operational activities, including configuring cloud databases, enabling diagnostics, optimizing performance, and implementing threat-driven security settings. Responsibilities also include monitoring database usage, addressing replication strategies, and advising on anticipated growth to inform resource planning.
Additional tasks include provisioning relational databases, managing server-level operations such as scaling, restoring, or deleting instances, and configuring geo-replication and monitoring metrics. Through this broad scope, the Data Architect ensures robust data management and supports CMSO's efforts to build resilient, secure, and future-ready database infrastructure.
