Job Description

• Lead technical discovery sessions to understand mission requirements, engineering workflows, data flows, and infrastructure constraints. • Evaluate cross-program collaboration needs, security boundaries, classification requirements, and deployment feasibility. • Design deployment architectures using Istari’s control plane, data plane, and agent frameworks. • Architect solutions for a variety of customer environments (e.g. AWS GovCloud, Azure, on-prem HPC environments, containerized platforms (EKS, ECS, K8s), and multi-tenant deployments). • Own end-to-end demo preparation and delivery for federal prospects. • Tailor demos to mission-specific scenarios, data flows, engineering tools, and classification requirements. • Collaborate with AEs to craft compelling technical narratives that articulate the “why,” not just the “how,” of Istari. • Advise customers on cloud security posture, Zero Trust patterns, enclave design, and network segmentation. • Support ATO-related discussions, boundary definitions, and infrastructure alignment. • Partner with AEs to quantify value, support ROI models, and articulate the technical pathway to successful production deployments.

Job Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).
  • 5–10+ years in pre-sales engineering, solutions architecture, systems engineering, or technical consulting for complex enterprise or infrastructure software.
  • Experience supporting federal missions—DoD, intelligence community, national labs, or defense primes.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS GovCloud and secure cloud/on-prem hybrid architectures.
  • Prior ownership of technical demos, ideally for infrastructure, data, or engineering platforms.
  • Strong technical storytelling and demo delivery skills—able to translate complex concepts into intuitive, mission-relevant narratives.
  • Ability to architect secure, distributed systems across classification levels and network boundaries.
  • Proficiency with containerized deployments, networking, cloud security, and systems integration.
  • Skilled at diagramming, documenting, and communicating architectures with clarity.
  • Excellent collaboration skills across sales, engineering, and product.
  • Must be a US citizen living within the United States.
