Your Job Description

Role Overview

The Solutions Architect is the senior-most technical authority for the unit's large-scale products. This is a highly strategic and client-facing role, not a full-time development role.

Design and govern the data models, APIs, and integration frameworks to ensure seamless data flow between products and the Data pillar.
Create and maintain high-level technical documentation, including architectural blueprints and data flow diagrams.

3. Technical Governance

Define and enforce technical standards for development, security, and code quality for all product-related builds.
Evaluate and select new technologies, platforms, and vendors.

4. Team Building & Mentorship

Lead, manage, and mentor the UI/UX Intern.
Provide direct mentorship in user-centered design, prototyping tools (Figma), and translating business requirements into user interfaces.
Manage the intern’s workflow, setting tasks for wireframes and prototypes that support sales and product design.

5. Key Internal Relationships

Innovation Lead: Collaborate on sales strategy and integrate client feedback into the product roadmap.
Project Manager: Provide technical input on scope, timelines, and implementation risks.
Data Lead: Work together on API and database design to ensure clean, analytics-ready data.
UI/UX Intern: Daily collaboration and direct supervision on prototypes and designs.

6. Key Performance Indicators

Sales Enablement: Increase demo-to-win rate and receive positive feedback from sales teams and clients.
Architectural Integrity: 100% adherence of new products to defined standards; strong uptime and scalability metrics.
Strategic Planning: Timely and successful delivery of the technical roadmap and architectural blueprints.
Team Leadership: Demonstrable skill improvement and high-quality outputs from the UI/UX Intern.
