Job description

We’re looking for a sharp, technically fluent Solutions Architect who thrives at the intersection of engineering and customer engagement. This is not a paper-pushing architect role — you’ll write code, guide implementations, and shape the architecture of mission-critical systems for top-tier clients. You’ll be a strategic advisor, trusted technical partner, and hands-on builder, helping our customers scale their infrastructure, adopt new technologies, and solve complex problems in real time.

What You’ll Do

• Engage directly with enterprise customers to understand their goals, requirements, and technical landscape
• Design scalable, secure, and performant solutions tailored to each customer’s needs
• Build prototypes and write code to validate architectural decisions (we mean it — you’ll still code)
• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to influence roadmaps based on client feedback
• Lead architecture workshops, whiteboarding sessions, and technical deep dives
• Serve as the technical voice in sales, onboarding, and solution design conversations
• Act as a trusted advisor, from proof-of-concept to production deployment and beyond

What We’re Looking For

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field from a top-tier university.
• 4–8 years of experience in software development, systems architecture, or solutions engineering
• Strong foundation in system design, cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure), and APIs
• Excellent communication and presentation skills — you can talk to developers and executives alike
• Proven ability to lead technical conversations and drive alignment in customer-facing settings
• Experience in a fast-paced startup or high-growth tech environment is a big plus

Bonus Points

• Prior experience in pre-sales, customer success, or consulting
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and DevOps workflows
• Open source contributions or public code samples

Why Join Us

• Shape architectural decisions for some of the most innovative companies in the world
• Work with a smart, mission-driven team of builders and problem-solvers
• Competitive salary, equity, and comprehensive benefits
• Flexible, remote-first culture with opportunities for travel and growth
