Hey!

Bitwise is a leading provider of mission-focused intelligence solutions that advance national security for the Intelligence Community and Department of Defense. We're a small and growing company, so you can expect to hop in on the ground floor with us and be a consequential member of the team. You'll be more than a contract performer for us - you'll also be asked for ideas to improve our company and improve your career, and you'll contribute to our team culture. We value growth and community above almost all else, so we gather regularly for game nights, happy hours, tech talks, and plenty more. We think you'll like it here!

Remember, Bitwise is not a cult.

What We Look For

Bitwise hires talented engineers who are driven by purpose and who value a culture of technical excellence, growth, and overall wellness. We deliver new and innovative intelligence solutions to our customers at the very forefront of our country's national security missions. And we do it every single day. Our work matters, and so will you.

We ask that every new hire be able to :

  • Contribute meaningful thought leadership - if not right away, over time
  • Interact with our customers and earn their confidence in your abilities
  • Be detailed, even if that means taking a little more time to get it right
  • Contribute their ideas and ideals to improve all aspects of our company
  • Allow us to invest in their education so we both grow together
  • Know and live our core values every single day

About this Role

As a Cloud Architect specializing in multi-cloud integration, you will guide teams in designing, evaluating, and implementing solutions across multiple commercial cloud environments. You'll leverage deep understanding of native cloud services-compute, storage, networking, identity, monitoring, and data pipelines-to help teams select and combine the right tools for each mission. This role requires balancing cost, complexity, and compliance while ensuring interoperability and maintainability across clouds. You'll work closely with development and DevOps teams to architect resilient systems that perform seamlessly across AWS, Azure, and

other commercial cloud providers. Acting as a trusted technical advisor, you'll raise the

organization's overall cloud maturity and enable smarter, faster adoption of cloud-native

capabilities

Responsibilities will include :

  • Active TS / SCI with Polygraph. Candidates without a current clearance will not be considered.
  • Design and evaluate multi-cloud architectures spanning AWS, Azure, and other commercial environments.
  • Develop reference implementations and integration patterns for cross-cloud networking, identity, and data flows.
  • Assess tradeoffs between cost, performance, compliance, and vendor lock-in to inform technical direction.
  • Collaborate with development and DevOps teams to implement cloud-native solutions aligned with mission needs.
  • Create reusable infrastructure-as-code templates (Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM / Bicep) to accelerate adoption.
  • Provide expert technical guidance and mentorship to teams building or migrating workloads in multi-cloud ecosystems.
  • Document architectures and share best practices to strengthen organizational cloud fluency and consistency.
  • Requirements

  • Active TS / SCI with Polygraph.
  • Solid grasp of computer networking protocols and principles.
  • Individually motivated, self-starter, capable of understanding vague requirements and delivering novel approaches.
  • Experience architecting solutions across multiple commercial clouds (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.).
  • Deep knowledge of native cloud services for compute, networking, identity, and storage.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code and automation frameworks (Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM / Bicep, etc.).
  • Experience with monitoring, logging, and cost management tools across multiple clouds.
  • Communicate complex concepts clearly and concisely to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Past experience working with and understanding of the CNO mission.
  • Twelve (12) years with a Bachelor's or four (4) additional years without the degree.
  • Don't quite meet these requirements? Peep our other prime positions
  • Preferred Skills

  • Certifications across multiple providers (e.g., AWS Solutions Architect, Azure
  • Solutions Architect Expert, Google Cloud Professional Architect).
  • Experience designing hybrid and federated cloud systems integrating on-prem and SaaS environments.
  • Familiarity with DevOps pipelines, CI / CD, and container orchestration (Kubernetes, ECS, AKS, etc.).
  • Experience and interest in mentoring and training others, sharing your expertise.
  • Benefits at Bitwise

  • Top salaries because we're top performers
  • Pick your PTO - Everyone values time and money differently, so we give you the flexibility to choose between 3 and 5 weeks of PTO with a corresponding adjustment to your pay. Your choice, your balance.
  • All 11 federal holidays, paid!
  • Up to 2 snow days, paid!
  • We'll quadruple (4x!) the first 6% you contribute to your 401(k), giving you up to a 24% company match. Contributing less than 6%? Unclaimed matches come right back to you as extra income, giving you a guaranteed 24% that goes to your retirement, to your paycheck, or both. C'mon now!
  • 100% employer-paid medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurances. That's a lot. Already covered on health insurance? No problem - we'll trade you this benefit for a boost to your salary instead.
  • $5,250 annual education assistance for training, certifications, tuition, and even student loan repayments.
  • Spot bonuses for obtained certifications, customer recognition, and just about anything else that makes us go "Hot damn!". We hope to say that many times about you.
  • Salary Range

    We estimate you'll earn between $200,000 and $300,000 annually, including our flex income, depending upon your annual work hours.

    Salary is determined on an individual basis following the interview process and considering various factors such as years of experience, skills, education, and certifications.

    What to expect after applying

    You'll get an email from us right away to acknowledge your application. After that, we'll :

  • Send over additional company materials for you to review
  • Schedule a video call to talk about you, our company, and your place in it
  • Craft a delightful offer package for you and record a video walkthrough
  • Work closely with you through onboarding. We'll keep it joyful and easy.
  • Disclaimers

We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other legally protected status.
