As a Solutions Architect, you will take ownership of end-to-end cloud architecture—guiding customers through discovery, design, migration, and optimization.

• Translate business and technical requirements into practical, production-ready cloud solutions
• Act as a trusted technical advisor for customers, ensuring reliability, performance, and availability
• Conduct discovery sessions, architecture workshops, and solution reviews with stakeholders
• Provide technical leadership during implementation, supporting engineering teams through deployment and go-live
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex infrastructure issues, including production and disaster recovery scenarios
• Collaborate with sales and pre-sales teams to support solution design and customer success initiatives
• Develop and maintain architecture documentation, standards, and reference designs
• Stay current with evolving cloud services, tools, and industry trends to continuously improve solution quality

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 6–10 years of experience in cloud architecture, infrastructure design, or solution delivery
• Strong hands-on expertise with AWS, including compute, storage, networking, security, and serverless services
• Working knowledge of Azure and/or GCP in multi-cloud environments
