Microsoft Cloud Solution Architect - Cybersecurity (CMMC Level 2)

Agile IT is a Microsoft-focused consulting and managed services provider. We help customers modernize and secure Microsoft 365, Azure, Azure Government, and Microsoft GCC High, with a mission to make CMMC Level 2 practical and sustainable through repeatable architectures, evidence automation, and managed operations. What you'll work across (our services) Professional Services – Enablement (fixed-price projects) Managed Services – Security & CMMC Compliance for Microsoft cloud and on-premises systems Microsoft GCC High Licensing (secure onboarding & lifecycle operations) Complementary Partner Services (co-delivered with strategic partners)

You are a hands-on cloud security architect who leads discovery, designs CMMC Level 2–aligned solutions, produces HLD / LLD and implementation plans, and guides delivery teams through build / migrate / hardening in Azure Government and Microsoft 365 GCC High. You'll map NIST 800-171 / 172 practices to Microsoft controls, accelerate time-to-audit-ready, and create repeatable patterns our delivery and managed-services teams can run at scale. Responsibilities Pre-sales & Solutioning Lead technical discovery / workshops; translate business, compliance, and risk needs into secure cloud designs. Produce solution artifacts (HLD / LLD, diagrams, LOE inputs) and shape SOWs with Sales, ensuring delivery feasibility and margin. Package enablement offers that cleanly hand off to managed services with clear acceptance criteria and runbooks. Security & Compliance Architecture (Azure Gov / GCC High) Design CMMC L2 control implementations across Identity, Device, Data, and Threat : Identity / Access : Microsoft Entra ID (PIM, Conditional Access, MFA), Entra Connect / Cloud Sync, privileged access workstations. Endpoint / Device : Intune baselines, compliance / hardening, BitLocker, updates. Data Protection : Microsoft Purview (labels, DLP, Insider Risk), CUI scoping and data-flow mapping. Threat : Microsoft Defender (Endpoint / Identity / Office / Cloud), Microsoft Sentinel (SIEM / SOAR), KQL analytics, playbooks. Cloud Platform : Azure Gov landing zones, Policy / Blueprint equivalents, Key Vault, Private Link, segmentation, logging / monitoring, BCDR. Define CUI boundary controls and evidence capture to support audit-ready operations. Delivery Leadership & Handoffs Create build / runbooks and validation procedures; coach engineers during implementation. Contribute to SSP / POA&M inputs with GRC partners; ensure evidence is automated and durable. Transition finished solutions into Managed Services (SLAs / OLAs, monitors, alerts, dashboards, knowledge transfer). Automation & Operationalization Use PowerShell, Bicep / Terraform, Logic Apps / Power Automate—and when helpful, API integrators (e.g., n8n, Rewst)—to reduce toil and automate evidence / control checks. Provide requirements to platform / automation teams for multi-tenant patterns.

Required Qualifications 7+ years designing and implementing Microsoft cloud security solutions. Expertise with Microsoft Entra ID, Intune, Microsoft Defender (Endpoint / Identity / Office / Cloud), Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Purview, and core Azure security services.
