The SAGE Team provides architectural support for on premises and multi-cloud enterprises operating across Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure environments, including Impact Level 4 (IL4) and Impact Level 6 (IL6) as well as SAP workloads. The environment currently includes relational database platforms, Microsoft SQL Server, and AWS Relational Database Service (RDS). The Data Architect will lead the development and execution of a modern data architecture strategy that improves scalability, resiliency, security, automation, interoperability, and operational efficiency for both structured and unstructured data assets across the DARPA environment. A central focus of the role is guiding the transition from infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS)-based database deployments to secure, containerized and platform-oriented data solutions where operationally appropriate while also rationalizing and organizing disparate data sources (including legacy databases, file shares, and ad hoc research data stores) into governed, cataloged, and analytically usable forms. Help us solve problems with Innovation Through Intelligence. Responsibilities Develop and maintain the target-state data architecture, roadmap, standards, and reference patterns for DARPA ITD multi-cloud environments. Assess existing relational database platforms, including Microsoft SQL Server and AWS RDS as well as other data stores such as shared file systems and ad hoc research repositories, and develop modernization recommendations for performance, availability, security, lifecycle management, and cost optimization.
