Enterprise Architect

role at

Jobs via Dice . Our client, The Tri‑Com Consulting Group, is seeking a skilled Enterprise Architect to drive data center relocation and migration projects.

The role is a “boots‑on‑the‑ground” position requiring travel to data center sites and hands‑on collaboration with facilities and IT teams. An in‑person interview is required.

Responsibilities

The successful candidate should have completed at least two data‑center moves, travelled, and been onsite with experience in HVAC, VMware, and security principles surrounding data centers.

Data Center Build Coordination (Phase 1):

Provide architectural oversight for new facility readiness—power distribution, UPS/generator, HVAC, structured cabling, rack design, and aisle containment.

Validate vendor/facilities designs for scalability, high availability and integration with disaster‑recovery requirements.

Coordinate with multiple organizations and vendors in facilities management, construction, and IT engineering.

Confirm physical and logical safeguards align with NIST requirements.

Work alongside facilities and third‑party vendors to ensure infrastructure (power, cooling, cabling, racks, and physical security) is implemented to enterprise standards.

Advise on data‑center security best practices—including physical controls (secured doors, walls, limited/no windows, CCTV, intrusion detection, environmental monitoring), strict access control (role‑based access, least privilege, badge/biometric entry, visitor logging), and alignment with NIST SP 800‑53, NIST SP 800‑171, IRS Pub 1075 where applicable.

Migration & Cutover Leadership (Phase 2):

Serve as lead technical authority for migration of VMware clusters, Dell EMC storage platforms, Cisco core networking, and Palo Alto firewalls/security.

Develop and maintain detailed cutover/migration runbooks with rollback procedures.

Oversee data replication, SRM/DR testing, and workload moves with minimal downtime.

Validate end‑to‑end performance (applications, storage, network) post‑migration.

Lead after‑hours/weekend cutover windows to protect business continuity.

Project Management and Security:

Organize and track project activities, milestones, and dependencies.

Partner with leadership to define resource plans and timelines.

Produce authoritative documentation (as‑built diagrams, baselines, runbooks, lessons learned).

Ensure consistent communication with stakeholders, vendors, and facilities throughout both phases.

Perform structured risk assessments for each phase and define mitigations.

Validate network segmentation, firewall/security policies, and Zero Trust design.

Ensure logging, monitoring, and auditing are active for NIST compliance.
