Want to join the leader in AI-powered data security?

We are looking for experienced architects who can develop detailed architecture and transition blueprints that guide successful customer deployments, migrations, and platform transformation initiatives. You’ll also create repeatable deployment blueprints that become templates for all customer deployments, used to develop our services practices and enable our delivery teams, partner teams, and customers to deploy our secondary storage solutions applications. The ideal candidate is someone with 5+ years of experience in architecting, documenting, deploying, and enabling others.

These practices will utilize the architecture sold by our account teams to achieve customer‑committed solutions. In addition to building these solutions, this role will spend considerable time validating these procedures in the field and teaching partners and customers how to apply them in their environment.

In this role you will work with engineering, systems engineers, tech marketing specialists, and customer support to build out professional services practices starting with the architectural blueprint that covers assessment, architecture design, migration planning, deployment and governance, to be used by delivery teams, partners and customers.

• Lead customer transition initiatives from assessment through deployment completion, serving as technical authority for migration strategy, workload prioritization and execution planning.
• Identify technical, operational, security, and business risks and establish transition plans prior to implementation.
• Act as a trusted advisor to customer architects, infrastructure teams, and executive stakeholders.
• Review and approve design deviations, implementation decisions and deployment readiness milestones.
• Build strategic relationships with key customers and Cohesity teams.
• Collaborate with Cohesity’s product solutions, product management and engineering team(s) to bridge the gap between technology capabilities and customer requirements.
• Present architecture recommendations, deployment strategies, and technical risks to executive and technical stakeholders.
• Engage directly with customers to understand their organization needs and identify how Cohesity’s product features can best support their objectives.
• Develop detailed solution designs including architecture diagrams, sizing specifications, integration requirements, and risk assessments.
• Provide field feedback to Product Management and Engineering teams regarding deployment challenges, feature gaps, automation opportunities, and customer requirements.
• Define technical architecture including sizing and performance that meet customer requirements.
• Engage with teams to ensure Deployment Designs are successfully deployed.
• Develop best practices for the deployment designs that translate to project plans.
• Continually improve deliverables as we scale and release new features/products.
• Inspect deliverables for success and improvements.
• Work with others to develop post-deployment documentation (run books, pre‑deployment templates, etc.).
• Provide feedback to Implement Engineers, Systems Engineers, and engineering on ways to improve the overall experience.
