Position Summary
The Enterprise Solutions Architect helps the Rockies make sound technology decisions across business and baseball operations. This role aligns enterprise applications, integrations, cloud services, data, security, and partner solutions into a secure, reliable, and supportable technology environment.
As the first dedicated architecture position within Information Systems, this person will establish practical standards, review processes, roadmaps, reusable design patterns, and decision records. This senior individual contributor leads through expertise and influence, partnering with technology leaders, department owners, engineers, application administrators, Information Security, data teams, vendors, and managed partners.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
Establish the Architecture Function
- Establish architecture principles, technology standards, reference patterns, review criteria, intake processes, decision records, exception practices, and a repository of current and future-state designs.
- Define when architecture review is needed for major investments, new platforms, integrations, cloud and data changes, artificial intelligence capabilities, and significant system changes.
- Assess the current technology environment, dependencies, technical debt, and lifecycle risks; identify opportunities to simplify systems and reuse existing capabilities.
- Build relationships across business and baseball operations so architecture informs priorities and solution selection early in planning.
Enterprise and Solution Architecture
- Translate business needs into solution options, target architectures, tradeoffs, sequencing, and recommendations leaders can act on.
- Guide design across enterprise applications, software as a service, Microsoft 365 and Power Platform, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, AWS, data services, identity, connectivity, venue technologies, and partner-managed environments.
- Define reusable cloud foundation patterns for landing zones, network topology, private connectivity, identity integration, workload placement, infrastructure as code, and governed self-service provisioning.
- Establish patterns for interoperability, authentication, data movement, logging, monitoring, resilience, recovery, scalability, supportability, and lifecycle management.
- Evaluate build, buy, reuse, and partner options based on business value, total cost, risk, time to value, internal capacity, support requirements, and long-term fit.
- Review internal designs and vendor solutions, identify gaps and dependencies, and help teams resolve architecture questions throughout delivery.
- Specify cloud foundation design details across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and on-premises connectivity, including account and subscription structure, VPC and virtual network topology, subnetting, peering, DNS, traffic routing, and secure paths between cloud and approved on-premises services.
Initial Cloud Foundation Implementation and Handoff
- Until a cloud/data/AI engineer or other operational owner is assigned, personally deliver the initial shared cloud foundation work needed to make the target architecture usable and supportable, including building, validating, and documenting foundational configurations.
- Design and implement initial federated identity and access patterns across cloud environments, on-premises systems, and SaaS platforms, coordinating with the enterprise identity owner. Establish automated provisioning, group-based entitlements, role-based access, and consistent identity propagation where platform capabilities allow; reduce sign-in friction for nontechnical users through simpler single sign-on.
- Design and implement secure cloud and hybrid network foundations, including VPCs and virtual networks, subnetting, peering, private connectivity, DNS, routing, segmentation, and secure paths to approved on-premises services and data sources.
- Build reusable landing zones, infrastructure-as-code modules, and approved templates for common compute, serverless, and application-hosting needs. Enable analytics and application teams to provision within documented identity, security, logging, and cost guardrails.
- Implement and document initial cross-cloud data movement patterns and regional placement guidance; tagging, allocation, and consolidated cost reporting; and AI gateway or observability foundations as priorities and readiness permit.
- Create a deliberate handoff for each operational capability, including architecture decisions, diagrams, configurations, code repositories, access, runbooks, known risks, and named ownership. Continue to advise on complex issues and material changes after handoff.
- Keep this interim build scope focused on shared foundations and cross-platform enablement. Application feature development and data-pipeline development remain with the relevant application, product, and data teams; the Architect addresses underlying architecture and platform constraints with those teams.
Platform Strategy and Technology Value
- Maintain cross-platform roadmaps that connect departmental priorities with enterprise direction, dependencies, lifecycle needs, and investment timing.
- Lead platform capability reviews covering adoption, licensing, vendor roadmaps, emerging features, technical debt, duplication, and use of capabilities already purchased.
- Identify opportunities for standardization, consolidation, and reuse across platforms such as Salesforce, UKG, Sage Intacct, Microsoft 365, Power Platform, Dialpad, cloud services, analytics tools, and baseball technologies.
- Partner with Finance, Procurement, and platform owners on cloud cost visibility, tagging, allocation, workload cost modeling, and optimization; define measurable outcomes and revisit major technology decisions as needs change.
- Establish consolidated cost visibility across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, on-premises infrastructure, and partner-managed environments. Set tagging and allocation standards that attribute spend to teams, projects, and workloads; develop cost models before architectural decisions; identify optimization opportunities including data-transfer and egress costs; and partner with Finance and Procurement on cloud agreements and committed-use options, providing analysis for decisions made by the appropriate business owner.
Integration Data Cloud and Artificial Intelligence
- Establish design standards for APIs, events, file exchange, workflow automation, low-code solutions, and partner-managed integrations.
- Guide workload placement across cloud, SaaS, on-premises, and partner environments while limiting unnecessary fragmentation.
- Partner with business data owners, Baseball Analytics, enterprise data resources, and vendors to align data movement, access, governance, and platform design while preserving domain ownership of data definitions and analytics.
- Evaluate embedded and standalone AI capabilities for business value, data readiness, security, integration fit, governance, responsible use, and supportability.
- Guide secure AI platform patterns for model access, data connectivity, gateways, logging, performance and usage monitoring, and cost visibility.
- During initial implementation, build secure and observable AI platform patterns for cloud-hosted and self-hosted models. Include model access, secure network paths to approved data, including regulated data subject to applicable requirements, gateways, and monitoring of model inputs and outputs, performance, usage, and cost. Establish reusable guardrails so teams can develop AI applications on a compliant, observable foundation without separately solving connectivity, security, and cost tracking.
Security Governance and Delivery Partnerships
- Incorporate security and privacy requirements into designs, including least privilege, data protection, secrets management, secure integration, logging, resilience, and third-party risk.
- Partner with Information Security to apply and validate security requirements and with vendors and managed partners to align solutions with Rockies standards.
- Present recommendations, dependencies, risks, lifecycle impacts, and exceptions in plain language; elevate major strategy, investment, risk, and exception decisions to Senior Director, Information Technology.
- Provide clear implementation guidance and remain engaged through delivery to resolve design questions, assess material changes, and manage technical debt.
- Communicate effectively with executives, technical staff, department leaders, vendors, and employees with different levels of technical experience.
Role Scope and Decision Authority
- Senior Director, Information Technology owns technology strategy, investment direction, enterprise priorities, and major commercial decisions. The Architect provides enterprise design, standards, analysis, and recommendations within delegated authority.
- Platform owners, engineers, application and department administrators, infrastructure and stadium technology teams, vendors, and managed partners own implementation and ongoing operations. Until a designated operational owner is assigned and a documented handoff is complete, the Architect is responsible for hands-on design, configuration, implementation, testing, documentation, and initial operation of the shared cloud, identity, networking, infrastructure-as-code, cost-visibility, and AI-platform foundations described above. The Architect may develop proofs of concept and reference implementations to validate designs; the role does not serve as the primary project manager or day-to-day administrator for enterprise applications. After handoff, routine provisioning, deployment, administration, monitoring, and support move to the designated operational owner.
- Information Security owns security requirements and risk practices. Business departments retain ownership of processes, priorities, data definitions, and outcomes; data and analytics teams retain ownership of domain methods and models.

Solutions Architect Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a solutions architect in Colorado?
Solutions architect roles in Colorado do not require a state-issued license or registration. Hiring employers typically look for a bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, or engineering, followed by several years of hands-on infrastructure or software development experience. Earning a vendor certification such as AWS Certified Solutions Architect or Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert is the most common way to stand out in the Colorado market, particularly for roles tied to the state's defense and aerospace technology sector.
Which companies hire solutions architects in Colorado?
Employers hiring solutions architects in Colorado right now include Databricks, Molex, and Amazon Web Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Colorado's concentration of defense contractors, cloud-forward enterprises, and financial technology firms keeps demand for solutions architects steady throughout the year.
Which Colorado cities have the most solutions architect jobs?
Denver, Colorado Springs, and Colorado account for the largest share of solutions architect openings in Colorado. Denver dominates because of its dense concentration of enterprise technology, financial services, and consulting firms, while Colorado Springs draws significant demand from defense and government contractors anchored by proximity to military installations, and Boulder attracts roles tied to high-growth software and deep-tech companies.
Are there remote solutions architect jobs in Colorado?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 67% of solutions architect openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how much of the work involves design, documentation, and stakeholder communication rather than on-site infrastructure work. The most remote-friendly sub-areas are cloud architecture and pre-sales solution design, while roles supporting classified government or defense programs in Colorado Springs typically require on-site presence.
How can I get hired as a solutions architect in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving laterally from a role such as systems engineer, cloud engineer, or DevOps engineer, where you already design and deploy solutions at scale. Large Colorado employers including DXC Technology, Lockheed Martin, and Arrow Electronics regularly hire at associate and junior architect levels for candidates who hold a current cloud certification and can show project-level architecture work, even from personal or open-source environments. Building a portfolio of documented architecture decisions and earning an AWS or Azure associate-level certification before applying gives candidates a concrete edge.
Where can I find and apply to solutions architect jobs in Colorado?
You can find and apply to solutions architect jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current Colorado openings. Find roles that fit your experience and specialization, then apply directly to the employers posting them.
