Maximus is currently seeking a Principal Enterprise Architect. This position is responsible for ensuring that all architectural activities, solution designs, and technology decisions are fully aligned with the Maximus Enterprise Architecture (EA) framework and associated governance processes. The role must adhere to established architecture standards, reference architectures, data management and data quality principles, integration and API‑first guidelines, security and compliance requirements, and enterprise-wide engineering best practices. The architect will ensure that proposed solutions support the target-state architecture, promote interoperability and reuse, and uphold consistency across platforms and programs. This position will actively engage with enterprise architecture, security, data, and engineering stakeholders to validate alignment, reduce architectural risk, and ensure solutions support Maximus’ long-term strategy and operational excellence.
To be considered qualified for the Principal Enterprise Architect role, candidates must have demonstrated, hands‑on experience translating business and technology strategy into actionable architectural guidance, reusable patterns, and aligned roadmaps. The position requires prior success collaborating with senior business leaders, product teams, and technology stakeholders to drive architectural consistency, interoperability, and strategic alignment across programs and platforms. Candidates without direct experience performing these responsibilities in an enterprise context will not meet the qualification criteria for this positon.
This position is remote but requires occasional travel to Maximus HQ or the Client site.
