Solution Architect

Your Challenge

Own the overall solution design for your assigned customers — from initial architecture through ongoing iteration across the customer journey.

Translate business requirements into scalable, high-performance designs on the Ataccama ONE platform, aligned to industry best practice.

Act as the technical authority on architectural guidance, solution design, and agreed deployment patterns for your accounts.

Support presales on complex POCs/PoTs and early solution scoping, and customer success on health checks, risk mitigation, and issue resolution (firefighting).

Build reusable best practices, accelerators, and robust documentation, and enable the wider Services and presales teams.

Partner closely with Product and Engineering — staying close to roadmap and releases and feeding back customer-driven requirements.
