We are seeking an experienced Enterprise Architect with Data Domain background to provide strategic architectural leadership across a major federal government agency's complex data environment.

We are looking for a broad Enterprise Architect who can bring genuine data-domain depth while working consultatively across executives, program leaders, architects and delivery teams.
