Why Watch
In 2024, Soltis and his team are focusing on innovative solutions for GDIT’s Hive Hybrid Multi-Cloud Digital Accelerator, with offerings in cloud migration, application and data modernization, and cloud management.
“I am excited to see the rapid adoption and new use cases for cloud, matched with the advances and amazing new tools in AI, data lakes, and serverless computing, as well as process automation in DevSecOps and containers,” he said. “To effectively run cloud at agency scale requires a mature culture, cross-agency and role collaboration, as well as an evolution in FinOps and cyber governance—these are areas where GDIT is equipping agencies with purpose-built tools to efficiently meet mission objectives.”
Fun fact: Outside work, Soltis is a dedicated high school swim coach and open water swimmer, using his mentoring skills in both the tech lab and at the pool. “I feel so fortunate to work with kids in the pool and with our GDIT solutions teams — the process and mentoring skills are quite similar,” he said. “It is my passion to see the outcomes from the strategy, collaboration in hard work, and attention to details over the long haul come to fruition in winning times and customer success.”
