Utility Solution Architect Grid Modernization - themosaiccompany

Please Note:

• You are not required to report into a Mosaic office; however, there is travel to client locations across North America required for this role (~50%)
• Geographic flexibility: This position is open to candidates residing anywhere in the US.
• Candidate must have experience designing end-to-end integrated solution architectures across multiple utility grid operations systems (e.g., SCADA, GIS, ADMS, OMS, DERMS) in a utility environment?

Position Overview

The Grid Modernization Solution Architect is a senior consulting role responsible for the end-to-end solution design, integration architecture, and technical leadership of grid operations technology programs across North America. This role owns the holistic solution vision spanning ADMS, OMS, SCADA, EMS, DERMS, GIS, and related enterprise systems, ensuring that individual platform implementations are cohesive, properly integrated, and aligned with each client’s operational objectives and long-term grid modernization strategy.

Unlike platform-specific leads who focus on the configuration and deployment of individual systems, the Solution Architect operates across the full technology stack. This role bridges the gap between client business requirements and technical execution, translating utility operational needs into integrated solution designs that account for:

• Real-time grid monitoring, control, and optimization across transmission and distribution
• Cross-platform data flows and integration architecture (SCADA to ADMS, GIS to network model, AMI to OMS, DERMS to DMS)
• IT/OT convergence, cybersecurity zoning, and NERC CIP compliance considerations
• Vendor solution evaluation, platform selection support, and technology roadmap development
• Migration strategies from legacy systems to modern, integrated grid operations platforms

The position requires deep domain expertise across utility grid operations, control room workflows, and enterprise technology integration, combined with the consulting acumen to lead complex, multi-stakeholder engagements.

Roles and Responsibilities

The responsibilities of the Grid Modernization Solution Architect role are as follows:

Solution Architecture & Design

• Define and own the integrated solution architecture for grid modernization programs, spanning ADMS, OMS, DMS, SCADA, EMS, DERMS, GIS, AMI, and supporting enterprise systems.
• Develop solution blueprints, reference architectures, and integration design documents that serve as the technical foundation for program delivery.
• Lead architecture design workshops with utility stakeholders, facilitating consensus across business operations, IT, OT, and vendor teams.
• Ensure end-to-end traceability from business requirements through solution design, integration specifications, and test scenarios.
