Key job responsibilities

Here as a Solutions Architect you will...

• Use your wisdom to assess whether things are doable with the knowledge of today, how they might be achievable with further development of existing solutions, or when things require new research and science.
• Keep close ties with the consumers of our services and look around corners to help us better anticipate future needs. You know how to take those insights and develop them into concrete proposals.
• Refine and advocate a ‘north star’ to guide business decision making with executives and team alignment. You possess excellent written and verbal communication skills. You understand how to craft a thesis and can show your work.
• Travel up to 20%, including domestic and potentially international destinations.
