Role Summary
The Solution Architect leads end-to-end solution design for public sector opportunities and translating business needs into secure, scalable target architectures and modernization roadmaps (e.g., legacy-to-cloud, microservices, API enablement, DevSecOps). The role supports the full tender lifecycle (RFI/RFQ/RFP) and ensures the proposed solution is compliant, deliverable, and cost effective.
Key Responsibilities
Lead solution architecture for government/public sector bids and delivery engagements, covering application, integration, data, security, and infrastructure domains.
Own technical tender responses: interpret tender requirements, build compliance matrices, write solution sections, prepare assumptions/clarifications, and support bid presentations and demos.
Define application modernization strategy and roadmap, such as:
Rehost / replatform / refactor / replace options and decision criteria.
Modularization, domain decomposition, API-first enablement, event-driven patterns.
Cloud/hybrid designs, landing zone alignment, and migration waves.
Produce architecture deliverables: solution blueprint, target state, transition state, integration design, security design, reference architecture, and architecture decision records.
Ensure solutions align with government security and compliance needs (identity, access control, encryption, logging/audit, vulnerability management) and internal governance.
Collaborate with commercial and delivery teams to create cost models (TCO/ROI), estimates, BOMs, and implementation plans that are realistic and competitive.
Manage stakeholders across government users, IT teams, vendors, and subcontractors; communicate complex architecture decisions clearly to non-technical audiences.
Application Modernization Scope
Legacy modernization assessment: app portfolio analysis, dependency mapping, technical debt, and modernization suitability scoring.
Cloud-native enablement: containerization, Kubernetes/managed services, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and automated testing.
Microservices and integration: service boundaries, API gateway, messaging, and observability (logs/metrics/traces).
Data modernization: schema/API changes, data migration strategy, data quality, performance tuning, and cutover/rollback planning.
Security-by-design: threat modelling, secure SDLC, OWASP controls, secrets management, and compliance evidence preparation.
Required Qualifications and Experience
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science/Engineering/Information Systems (or equivalent experience).
At least 15+ years in IT delivery, including 6 years or more in solution/application architecture. Individual with less experienced but high potential will also be considered.
Demonstrated experience supporting SOA QPS5, government/public sector tenders(RFI/RFQ/RFP), including writing technical proposals and participating in bid workshops/presentations.
Proven hands-on experience delivering application modernization initiatives (legacy refactor, platform migration, API enablement, DevSecOps adoption).
Strong understanding of modern architectures (cloud/hybrid, microservices, event-driven integration) and enterprise integration patterns.
Key Skills and Competencies
Architecture certifications (e.g., TOGAF) and/or cloud certifications (AWS/Azure/GCP Architect) are preferrable.
Experience with government security/compliance frameworks, tender scoring models, and bid governance.
Experience with large-scale modernization projects.
Strong written and verbal communication skills in Chinese and English.
