Program Description: Customer requires enterprise architecture, assessment, modernization, integration, and project management support for IT Enterprise and large-scale programs.
The initiative will evaluate whether current enterprise services can securely and reliably support large-scale development, testing, performance, scalability, failover, and production operations. The work includes assessments of enterprise technology capabilities, including the ServiceNow platform, enterprise network architecture, Microsoft Intune mobility environment, and the integration of enterprise applications with external vendor mobile devices and supporting systems.
Position Description: The Mobility Architect serves as the enterprise architect responsible for defining the strategy, architecture, governance, and long-term evolution of the organization's mobility, endpoint management, and digital workplace capabilities. The role assesses current-state environments, evaluates enterprise requirements, develops future-state architectures, and establishes the governance frameworks, operating models, standards, and roadmaps necessary to support enterprise modernization objectives.
The Mobility Architect works in close partnership with the Microsoft Intune SME and other technology stakeholders to assess platform capabilities, evaluate technology alternatives, define strategic direction, and determine whether current and emerging endpoint management solutions can support long-term mission, operational, security, scalability, and performance requirements. The role provides strategic guidance on technology selection, architecture direction, governance, integration patterns, Zero Trust alignment, and enterprise modernization roadmaps.

- Develop decision frameworks and recommendations regarding platform adoption, expansion, replacement, consolidation, or modernization initiatives.
- Define target-state mobility architectures, operating models, governance frameworks, standards, and modernization roadmaps.
- Lead architecture modeling, technology evaluations, trade studies, alternatives analyses, and future-state architecture planning activities.
- Define enterprise mobility architecture patterns, reference architectures, standards, and design principles supporting scalability, security, resiliency, and interoperability.
- Develop enterprise identity integration and Zero Trust strategies supporting workforce mobility, secure access, endpoint trust, and risk-based access controls.
- Evaluate enterprise requirements for endpoint management, mobility services, application delivery, digital workplace services, and remote workforce capabilities.
- Define enterprise integration strategies across mobility services, identity platforms, cybersecurity capabilities, cloud services, collaboration platforms, service management platforms, and enterprise applications.
- Assess emerging technologies, industry direction, market trends, and vendor capabilities and provide recommendations regarding future technology investments and roadmap decisions.
- Identify architectural risks, technology constraints, security concerns, integration challenges, operational dependencies, and modernization opportunities.
- Develop business cases, executive recommendations, investment priorities, implementation roadmaps, and transition strategies supporting enterprise modernization objectives.
- Support architecture review boards, technical governance boards, engineering review activities, and strategic planning efforts.
- Develop architecture artifacts, standards, reference models, roadmaps, executive briefings, and governance documentation supporting enterprise adoption and long-term sustainability.
