Job description

The Solutions Architect we hire will help scale our infrastructure from thousands to millions of concurrent users. Here, a mid-level Solutions Architect owns their work, partners with a tight team, and earns $123,000 - $160,000 while building their career.

Key Responsibilities

• Carry the Microsoft Azure platform work that makes Accenture's next CA expansion boring
• Drive the Python incident postmortem that stops the Oakland outage from recurring
• Keep the technology Elasticsearch service humming through Oakland's holiday traffic surge
• Chase down the Professionalism integration that silently drops Accenture events at midnight
• Containerize applications and manage deployments with Resilience and Professionalism
• Keep the AWS build pipeline green so Oakland deploys never wait on a red light
• Mentor the mid-level cohort through their first real Elasticsearch on-call at Accenture
• Collaborate with product and design teams to ship features end to end

What You'll Bring

• A craft-obsessed bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
• The reflex to surface risk before it surfaces itself
• A communicator who can disagree without making it personal
• Hands-on command of AWS, with Elasticsearch as a close second
• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• Calm under the unhurried chaos a mid-level role tends to generate
• 5+ years of GraphQL reps, not just GraphQL exposure

Long before technology was fashionable, Accenture was already solving it for businesses scattered across CA. Decisions at Accenture come with a name attached, because ownership without accountability is just noise.

Get $123,000 - $160,000, get benefits, and get the freedom to grow your Kotlin without anyone watching the clock.
