The Challenge:

Lead the way in defining a new technical stack and cloud architecture to take our data analytics to the next level, supplementing our mature reporting and business intelligence capabilities with powerful predictive analytics and machine learning. By collaborating with other technical leaders across our internal IT department and Data Governance functions, you will help us define where the organization should be going and how modern cloud technologies can support this vision, while connecting the dots across our existing enterprise systems to maintain data integrity and business continuity. Since elements of this architecture will be new, you will play a pivotal role in helping the team adapt to and learn new technologies by teaching us along the way. As an industry expert and leader, we will trust and empower you to design a solution that will deliver huge benefits to our business, while ensuring the underlying infrastructure is compliant with enterprise requirements for security, scalability, and performance. You will also have opportunities to sharpen your skills in cloud methodologies.

Your leadership and technical expertise will be vital as you work with key stakeholders and cross-functional teams to ensure standards are met throughout the build and migration process. We are driving transformational change in how Booz Allen harnesses its vast troves of data, and we need you to drive the vital changes in our cloud architecture that will make that possible!
