About

Overview VTG Defense is seeking a Cloud Solutions Architect to support U.S. Air Forces Central (AFCENT) mission systems across NIPR/SIPR and coalition environments. This role leads cloud cost governance, optimization, and cost‑sharing implementation for multi‑cloud platforms while partnering with AFCENT A6/A8, PMOs, cyber, finance, and the CAOC. The ideal candidate blends FinOps, DoD financial governance, and cloud engineering awareness to deliver audit‑ready, mission‑aligned outcomes.
What will you do?
Optimize and govern cloud spending across Azure Government in IL2–IL6 and coalition environments.
Implement tagging strategy and TBM framework to enable mission‑level cost transparency.
Build forecasts, POM inputs, and execution dashboards with variance analysis for AFCENT leadership.
Align cloud financial practices with PPBE, DoD FMR (7000.14‑R), and color‑of‑money rules requirements.
Support CI/CD pipelines (GitLab) and Kubernetes‑based platforms in secure, multi‑tenant environments.
Contribute to cloud‑native architectures, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), IaC, and compliance‑driven reference patterns (RMF, ATO).
Coordinate with engineering, cyber, contracting, finance, and coalition partners to ensure cost decisions support mission and security timelines.
Brief senior leaders; translate technical cloud billing into operational and mission impacts.
Do you have what it takes? Required Qualifications
CompTIA Security+ certification (or higher).
Experience in DoD or Air Force environments, preferably MAJCOM/COCOM or CAOC operations.
Knowledge of PPBE, DoD FMR, WBS, and color‑of‑money constraints.
Hands‑on experience with AWS GovCloud and/or Azure Government cloud cost management.
Proficiency with Excel and Power BI for financial analysis and reporting.
Familiarity with ATO‑governed systems, POA & Ms, and IL2–IL6 environments.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non‑technical audiences.
Preferred Qualifications
FinOps Certified Practitioner (FOCP) or Advanced Practitioner.
Active Secret clearance with the ability to obtain TS/SCI.
Experience with Cloud One / Platform One, Iron Bank, or DevSecOps pipelines.
Scripting (Python/PowerShell) and Infrastructure‑as‑Code (Terraform/ARM/CloudFormation).
Experience supporting software acquisition pathways and cloud contracting mechanisms.
