Job summary

Ericsson Mobile Financial Services is seeking a technically exceptional Senior Presales Solution Architect to join our growing US team. You will own the end-to-end presales process, translating deep fintech architecture into customer-ready solutions for mobile money, digital wallets, and payments.

This remote US-based role requires travel, strong architectural and written communication skills, and the ability to earn trust with engineering leaders and executives.

Qualifications

• 10+ years in solution architecture, software engineering, or other deeply technical roles within fintech or financial services technology organizations in the US.
• A proven track record of technically leading complex, architecture-driven engagements in fintech or payments — ideally with ownership of design decisions end to end.
• Strong hands-on understanding of fintech platforms, including mobile money, digital payments, wallet infrastructure, API design and management, microservices, and cloud-based financial services architectures.
• Fluency in the technical fundamentals that matter in payments — transaction processing, security and encryption, data integration, system scalability, and resilience.
• The rare ability to move between layers — going deep in a technical whiteboard session, then stepping up to frame business value for an executive audience.
• Excellent solution design, technical writing, presentation, and RFP response skills.
• A collaborative, customer-first mindset and the credibility to build trusted relationships with technical and business stakeholders.
• The ability to operate independently in a US-based role while staying connected to a global engineering and product organization.
• An established network of potential customers and partners in the US fintech market is a strong advantage.
• Willingness and ability to travel as required.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end technical presales process — from discovery and requirements analysis through solution design, architecture, live demonstrations, proposals, and executive presentations.
• Act as the lead technical authority in customer engagements, positioning Ericsson Mobile Financial Services capabilities as the right architectural and strategic fit for complex fintech environments.
• Architect tailored, scalable solutions spanning mobile money, digital wallets, payment processing, API ecosystems, and financial inclusion use cases — balancing technical rigor with real-world deployment constraints.
• Design integration and systems architectures that address security, compliance, scalability, and interoperability challenges specific to US financial services.
• Build compelling solution narratives that connect deep technical capability to measurable business value for both engineering teams and senior executives.
• Produce high-quality technical proposals, solution blueprints, and RFP/RFI responses that clearly differentiate us on both technical merit and commercial value.
• Drive clean handovers to delivery, collaborating closely with sales, product, and implementation teams to ensure what is sold can be built and scaled.
• Stay ahead of the market — tracking US fintech trends, emerging payment technologies, regulatory shifts, and the competitive landscape, and feeding insights back into our solution strategy.
• Build reusable technical assets — reference architectures, demo environments, integration patterns, and best-practice documentation that raise the capability of the whole team.
• Mentor and uplift colleagues, helping grow solution architecture depth across presales and supporting partner-led engagements.
