Description du poste

About the role

As a Senior Functional Solution Architect – SaaS Implementation, you'll ensure that our technical solutions align with customer needs while driving continuous improvement within the product and internal processes.

This is a hands‑on functional SaaS role focused on complex implementation solution design, configuration quality, troubleshooting and reusable standards. It is not a cloud‑infrastructure, software‑development or pure pre‑sales position. The responsibilities are split into customer‑focused and internal/product‑focused areas.

Customer-focused responsibilities

• Expert problem‑solving: Solve complex challenges during client implementations, ensuring solutions are effective and user‑friendly.
• Technical solution alignment: Ensure customer requirements are met through tailored configurations and quality assurance.
• Consultant support & escalation handling: Provide expert guidance to consultants, stepping in for complex scenarios and project escalations.
• Communication & documentation: Engage with clients when needed, communicate technical concepts clearly, and document new approaches for team training.

Internal & Product‑Focused Responsibilities

• Continuous improvement & training: Identify process enhancements, including opportunities to leverage AI, and train consultants to improve their skills.
• Product insights & strategy: Share customer feedback with internal teams, explore how AI and emerging technologies can support scalable solutions, and contribute to product development by identifying trends and shaping future product directions.

• Problem-solving ability: You own end‑to‑end solution design for complex cases, perform quality reviews, and safeguard alignment with standards, product direction, and long‑term customer success.
• Technical comfort: You should be comfortable with the technical configuration of IT systems and SaaS in particular and have a good understanding of how they work. Familiarity with SQL is a plus.
