Agile Defense is seeking a Senior Solutions Architect to lead the technical development and writing of competitive Federal proposals supporting DoD and Federal Civilian customers.
The ideal candidate will combine hands‑on experience providing consultative guidance and support for mission‑focused technical solutions, including Federal proposal deliverables such as RFP/RFI responses, white papers, technical volumes, and solution narratives.
Note: This is not a hands-on software engineering or post‑award delivery role.
