The Principal Solution Architect ensures that every implementation is scalable, aligned to client strategy, and delivered with technical and functional excellence. The ideal candidate will be a strong communicator and hands-on leader with deep CLM platform knowledge and cross-functional alignment skills.

Key Responsibilities:

Solution Architecture & Design Leadership

• Lead end-to-end design and architecture for CLM implementations across legal, procurement, and sales domains.

• Act as the final approver for architecture and design decisions, ensuring alignment with platform capabilities and business requirements.

Client Engagement & Strategic Delivery

• Serve as a senior advisor to client stakeholders, bridging business goals with technical solutions.
• Translate discovery and requirements into actionable implementation plans and roadmaps.
• Oversee solution integrity through build, testing, and deployment phases.
• Support and guide project teams through high-touch, complex engagements.

Platform Integration & AI/ GenAI Enablement

• Define integration strategies with enterprise systems (ERP, CRM, eSignature, eBilling, and analytics platforms).
• Guide the application of AI/ GenAI tools for contract extraction, risk scoring, clause deviation analysis, and workflow intelligence.
• Ensure master data management and consistent data models across systems.

Practice Development & Standards

• Establish reusable architecture frameworks, templates, and design standards across engagements.
• Contribute to internal enablement through mentorship, training, and development of solution accelerators.
• Partner with sales and pre-sales teams to define solution approaches, estimates, and platform selection support.

Hybrid Responsibilities (as applicable by project)

• Project Management: Support planning, execution oversight, resource coordination, and milestone tracking.
• Business Analysis: Conduct stakeholder interviews, define requirements, map processes, and validate configuration.
• Serve as a flexible resource to ensure project continuity and alignment across phases.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field.
• 10+ years of experience in enterprise software delivery, including 5+ years in CLM solution architecture.
• Proven expertise in CLM platforms such as Agiloft, ContractPodAi, Malbek, Conga, Ironclad, or Sirion.
• Deep knowledge of contracting workflows, metadata structures, clause libraries, and regulatory compliance considerations.
• Strong experience with API-based integrations, middleware tools, data migration, and enterprise security models.
• Excellent client-facing communication and leadership skills.
• CLM platform certifications preferred.

The Compensation range for this role is $120,000.00 to $180,000.00 USD annually and may be eligible for an annual bonus.

Your specific salary will be determined based on several factors:
