We are seeking a DevSecOps Solution Architect to join Microsoft Federal and lead the design and delivery of secure, scalable, cloud-first solutions for U.S. Government customers.

Microsoft Federal was established to address the unique mission, compliance, security, and procurement requirements of the United States Government (USG). Our architects partner with federal agencies to define technical strategy, modernize enterprise platforms, and accelerate mission outcomes within highly regulated environments.

As a DevSecOps Solution Architect, you will serve as a trusted technical advisor responsible for shaping cloud adoption strategies, architecting enterprise-scale platforms, and leading DevSecOps transformation initiatives.

This role is focused on helping federal customers modernize mission systems through secure cloud architecture, platform engineering, and DevSecOps transformation. The DevSecOps & Azure Architect serves as a technical leader responsible for translating mission requirements into enterprise-scale Azure solutions, enabling secure application delivery, improving operational agility, and accelerating cloud adoption across complex government environments.
