Solutions Architecture & Sales Engineering - Dev Sec Ops

Aleut Federal is seeking a senior, market-facing technical leader specializing in custom software development and Dev Sec Ops  transformation across U.S. federal environments.

This role operates across the full lifecycle - from opportunity shaping and technical solutioning through capture, proposal development, pricing, and post-award delivery assurance. The successful candidate will directly influence technical win strategies while maintaining accountability for execution fidelity.

The ideal candidate is a hands‑on engineer‑architect who can design modern, cloud‑native systems, implement secure Dev Sec Ops  pipelines, and translate engineering capabilities into differentiated, winning solutions.

This is a build, sell, and validate role with direct impact on growth and delivery outcomes.

• Lead technical solutioning for federal opportunities involving custom application development, cloud‑native modernization, Dev Sec Ops , and platform engineering.
• Directly influence and help drive technical wins by defining solution discriminators, shaping technical win themes, and leading customer‑facing architecture discussions, whiteboarding sessions, and demos.
• Partner with Business Development and Capture to shape opportunities pre‑RFP and translate engineering approaches into clear mission, performance, and cost outcomes.
• Present and defend technical approaches to clients, partners, and internal stakeholders and serve as a senior technical voice in opportunity strategy.

• Aleut Federal expects AI to be embedded into all engineering and Dev Sec Ops  practices.
• Integrate AI into the SDLC, including AI‑assisted code generation, automated test generation, defect detection, documentation support, and requirements refinement.
• Apply AI within Dev Sec Ops  pipelines for intelligent test selection, anomaly detection in builds and deployments, and pipeline optimization.
• Implement semi‑autonomous engineering and release workflows with human oversight, auditability, and rollback controls.
• Required:
  
  practical use of AI tools within development or pipeline workflows. Strongly preferred for Senior Principal: delivered AI‑enabled engineering pipelines with measurable improvements in quality, speed, or cost.
• Ensure AI usage aligns with federal security, privacy, and compliance expectations.
• Lead and contribute to technical proposal development.
• Author and own complete technical sections, including solution architecture, custom development approach, Dev Sec Ops  strategy, and transition approach.
• Build BOEs aligned to labor mix, automation strategy, tooling, and delivery assumptions.
• Ensure proposed solutions are executable, cost‑efficient, and clearly differentiated.

• Ensure alignment between proposed solutions and delivered systems.
• Provide technical oversight during startup and early execution and identify risks in architecture, pipelines, security, and release management.
• Support delivery teams in resolving technical challenges and maintaining proposal‑to‑delivery fidelity.

• Develop Dev Sec Ops  and engineering solution briefs, capability messaging, and reference architectures.
• Actively participate in industry events, client briefings, and technical forums and be willing to speak in front of teams, customers, and conference audiences.
• Position Aleut Federal as a credible modernization and Dev Sec Ops  partner.

• U.S. Citizenship (U.S. Citizens only).
• 7+ years of U.S. federal experience with a Bachelor’s degree.
• Hands‑on experience in custom software development, Dev Sec Ops  pipeline implementation, and cloud‑native architectures.
• Experience supporting technical solutioning, capture, and proposal development.
• Strong communication skills across technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Ability to obtain a Position of Public Trust.

• Experience with AWS Gov Cloud or Azure Government.
• Familiarity with FedRAMP, CMMC, NIST, and Zero Trust frameworks.
