Job description

Solutions Architect | Remote (US) | Full-time | Senior individual contributor

Our client, a growing multi-brand technology company in a regulated industry, is hiring a Solutions Architect to design how its systems work together end-to-end. You will connect business applications, cloud platforms, real-time communications, and connected devices into one secure, scalable architecture.

This is a hands-on architecture role, not a people-management role. You will own the design of solutions that span many systems and partner with specialist architects in data, security, CRM, and devices.

What You’ll Do

• Design end-to-end solutions that turn business needs into clear technical architectures across applications, integrations, cloud, and devices.
• Architect API-first and event-driven integrations between CRM, ERP, communications platforms, and connected-device systems.
• Own non-functional requirements across your designs: performance, scalability, availability, disaster recovery, and SLAs/SLOs.
• Apply secure-by-design practices, including threat modeling, identity, encryption, and compliance with healthcare and telecom regulations.
• Produce architecture artifacts: system diagrams, integration maps, data flows, and architecture decision records (ADRs).
• Evaluate build-vs-buy options and recommend where to consolidate or modernize platforms.
• Lead architecture reviews and explain tradeoffs in cost, speed, and risk to engineers and executives alike.

What You Bring

• 8+ years in solutions or enterprise architecture, personally designing solutions that span multiple systems and vendors.
• Strong integration expertise: APIs, event-driven patterns, and connecting business applications such as CRM and ERP.
• Hands-on experience designing on AWS and/or Azure.
• A solid grounding in non-functional requirements, including reliability, scalability, and disaster recovery for production systems.
• Working knowledge of security architecture: threat modeling, zero-trust, and identity and access management.
• Experience in a regulated environment (healthcare, telecom, finance, or similar).
• The ability to explain technical tradeoffs clearly to both engineers and business leaders.
• A bachelor's degree in a technical field, or equivalent experience.

Nice to have:

• Salesforce and/or NetSuite solution design, with iPaaS platforms such as Celigo, MuleSoft, Boomi, or Workato.
• Telecom or real-time communications: SIP, WebRTC, call routing, IVR, or CCaaS/UCaaS platforms.
• Supporting multiple brands or business units on shared technology.
• Certifications in AWS, Azure, Salesforce, TOGAF, or security (CISSP, CCSP).

Why This Role

• Fully remote, anywhere in the US.
• Real architecture ownership across a wide, interesting technology landscape.
• Work that directly improves the lives of the people who use the products.
