Job Details/Détails du postePosition Overview: Reporting to the Senior Director, Managed Services, the Service Solution Architect plays a critical role in shaping, designing, and evolving Compugen's managed services portfolio and customer engagements. This strategic customer-facing role combines deep technical expertise, consultative leadership, and business acumen to help clients transform their IT operations and achieve meaningful business outcomes.
As part of Compugen's Managed Services transformation journey, the Service Solution Architect acts as a trusted advisor to both existing and prospective customers, helping them navigate complex technology decisions across infrastructure, cloud, security, digital workplace, automation, and AI-enabled services.
