Part-Time Federal Solutions Architect (1099 Contractor)
Remote US; Washington, District of Columbia, United States
Opportunity Tomorrow.io is expanding its federal footprint across civilian and defense missions, including NOAA AWIPS, FAA next-generation air traffic control, and newly formed Tomorrow.io Federal.
We are seeking a senior Federal Solutions Architect to join us initially as a part‑time independent contractor. This role is ideal for an experienced federal technologist who wants to:
Stay hands‑on as an individual contributor
Apply deep federal architecture and compliance expertise
Make high‑impact contributions without people management (for now)
Help shape a growing federal practice with a clear opportunity to transition into a full‑time role next year
This is a builder role, not a maintenance role.
What You’ll Do Own Federal Solution Architecture (IC‑Focused)
Act as the senior technical IC for federal programs including NOAA AWIPS, DoD weather systems, and future classified and unclassified deployments
Design and document end‑to‑end architectures: system diagrams, data flows, integrations, security controls, and CONOPS
Lead Compliance & Security Architecture
Define and implement technical approaches aligned with FedRAMP, RMF, FISMA, ITAR, CUI, and DoD IL5/IL6
Serve as a hands‑on technical contributor during ATO processes, audits, and security reviews
Partner with Integrators & Government Stakeholders
Engage directly with system integrators (e.g. SAIC, Leidos) and government technical teams
Translate mission and operational requirements into deployable, compliant architectures
Work closely with Tomorrow.io’s global engineering teams to ensure architectures are feasible within the product roadmap
Adapt commercial platforms to meet federal operational and compliance constraints
Support Capture & Growth Efforts (As Needed)
Provide technical input for RFIs, RFPs, solution narratives, and architecture diagrams
Collaborate with Business Development and Capture teams to shape technical strategy early
Note: This role is intentionally scoped as a senior IC position. Team leadership and hiring may become part of the role if/when it transitions to full‑time, but are not required initially.
What You Bring
Proven experience architecting and delivering systems in federal civilian and/or DoD environments
Strong background in cloud infrastructure, data platforms, APIs, and operational systems
Compliance & Security Fluency
Hands‑on experience with FedRAMP, RMF, FISMA, ITAR, CUI, DoD IL5/IL6
Ability to design architectures that balance performance, security, and regulatory rigor
Credibility & Independence
Comfortable operating as a trusted technical expert with government customers and integrators
Able to work independently, define structure, and deliver with minimal oversight
Builder Mindset
Experience standing up new environments, programs, or federal capabilities
Enjoys early‑stage work, ambiguity, and shaping technical direction
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Able to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non‑technical audiences
Required Qualifications
U.S. based (Washington, DC highly preferred; remote within U.S. considered)
Active or eligible TS/SCI clearance
Prior experience supporting DoD and/or federal civilian systems
If you have reached this point and you are super excited but not sure you check all the boxes - we still want to speak with you! Your passion is priceless. Other things can be learned.
