Role Overview: CHAOS Industries is hiring a Senior Business Application Architect to own the design, integration, and evolution of our enterprise application ecosystem across defense and GovCon program environments. This is a senior individual contributor role with architectural authority — sitting at the intersection of business process, systems design, and mission requirements. You’ll translate complex operational needs into scalable, secure, and compliant application solutions and serve as the technical authority for our enterprise platforms. You’ll partner directly with program leads, IT leadership, and government stakeholders to define architecture strategy and drive implementation across the enterprise.  * You’ll work across the Enterprise Technology Division, collaborating with Program Managers, ISSMs, Contracts, Finance, and government customers — translating their operational reality into application architecture that actually works in a defense environment. No two days look the same.  * From day one you’ll own the enterprise application architecture blueprint, lead integration design across classified and unclassified environments, and drive the ERP/CRM/ITSM platform strategy. This is a build role — you’ll leave fingerprints on everything.  Responsibilities:   * Define and own the enterprise application architecture blueprint across GovCon and defense program environments, including ERP, CRM, ITSM, HR/Recruiting and program management platforms.  * Design scalable, secure, and interoperable application solutions that meet DoD and IC program requirements, including data residency, classification boundary, and access control constraints.  * Architect and oversee integration between enterprise applications and mission systems across hybrid on-premise, cloud (AWS GovCloud, Azure Government), and air-gapped environments.  * Define API strategy and standards for enterprise application integrations; lead RESTful and event-driven integration pattern design.  * Partner with program managers, contracts, finance, and operations teams to translate business requirements into technical architecture specifications.  * Serve as the primary technical liaison to government customers and prime contractors for enterprise application matters on assigned programs.  * Lead or support application implementation projects from architecture through deployment; govern architectural integrity across delivery teams.  * Ensure all application architectures comply with DFARS, CMMC Level 2/3, ITAR, NIST 800-53, and applicable export control requirements.  * Coordinate with the ISSM/ISSO community to support RMF authorization activities for applications operating within classified or CUI environments.  * Maintain current-state and target-state architecture documentation; manage the enterprise application portfolio inventory and lifecycle.  * Travel up to 10% CONUS to support program sites, government customer meetings, and architecture reviews.   Minimum Requirements:  * Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline. Master’s degree preferred; equivalent experience considered.  * 8–12 years of progressive experience in enterprise application architecture, systems integration, or solutions architecture, with a minimum of 4 years supporting defense, GovCon, or federal government environments.  * Demonstrated experience architecting enterprise application solutions for DoD or IC programs — you’ve navigated classification boundaries, CUI handling, and government compliance requirements before.  * Hands-on experience with one or more major enterprise platforms: Azure Government Cloud, or AWS Government Cloud.  * Experience designing integrations across hybrid cloud and on-premise environments, including AWS GovCloud or Azure Government.  * Working knowledge of CMMC, DFARS 252.204-7012, and NIST SP 800-171 requirements and their application to enterprise software environments.  * Active Secret clearance required at time of hire. TS eligibility strongly preferred; specific program assignments may require upgrade.  Preferred Requirements:  * Experience with core Business applications, ERP, HCS, program accounting or contract management context.  * Familiarity with DoD acquisition systems, EVM (Earned Value Management), or DCAA audit compliance requirements. * Knowledge of Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) principles and their application to enterprise application environments.  * Experience supporting CMMC Level 2/3 assessment readiness or SSP development for enterprise applications.  * TOGAF 9/10, AWS Solutions Architect, PMP, or equivalent architecture or delivery certification.  * Active TS clearance.  Why CHAOS? * Health Benefits: Medical, dental, and vision benefits 100% paid for by the company * Additional benefits: 401k (+ 50% company match up to 6% of pay), FSA, HSA, life insurance, and more * Our Perks: Free daily lunch, ‘No meeting Fridays’, unlimited PTO, casual dress code * Compensation Components: Competitive base salaries, generous pre-IPO stock option grants, relocation assistance, and (coming soon!) annual bonuses * Team Growth: 250 employees and counting across 5 global offices Salary Range: $110,000 - $190,000 The stated compensation range reflects only the targeted base compensation range and excludes additional earnings such as bonus, equity, and benefits.
