Senior Solutions Architect

Position Overview:

The Senior Solution Architect leads the enterprise data engagements from first conversation to go-live. You'll scope the work with client executives, design the architecture, and lead the team that delivers it. This is a Senior Manager-level role.

You'll work across platforms rather than inside a single toolset: cloud data warehouses, ERP and operational sources, integration, semantic models, and business intelligence. The role suits someone who understands what finance and operations leaders need, and who still builds when the problem is hard.

Within your first year, you'll take enterprise data opportunities from scoping through delivery without a Director running them. Clients will see you as their trusted architect, and our Principal Architect will rely on you for design reviews and standards.

Responsibilities:

Scoping and solutioning
• Lead discovery with client executives and turn business problems into solution architectures, roadmaps, and phased plans.
• Build estimates, staffing models, and statements of work, and own the technical content of proposals.
• Recommend the right platform and approach for each client's data, systems, budget, and team.
• Present and demo solutions to executive buying committees.

Engagement execution
• Lead enterprise data engagements end to end: design, build, testing, deployment, and adoption.
• Serve as the primary client contact and run design reviews, steering committees, and executive readouts.
• Manage scope, budget, risks, and timelines across concurrent engagements.
• Hold the delivery team to a high bar for quality and maintainability.

Architecture and technical leadership
• Design warehouses, lakehouses, integrations, semantic models, and reporting on the platform that fits the client, whether Oracle, Microsoft, Snowflake, Databricks, or others.
• Integrate ERP, CRM, and operational data from APIs, flat files, and middleware.
• Get hands-on for difficult modeling, SQL, integration, and performance problems.
• Bring AI into solutions and delivery, from AI-assisted development to AI-enabled analytics.
• Partner with our Principal Architect on reference architectures, standards, and accelerators.

Client advisory and growth
• Advise CFOs, controllers, and operations leaders on data strategy, reporting consolidation, and close acceleration.
• Guide clients through ERP migrations and post-acquisition system and data consolidation.
• Identify expansion opportunities and help shape repeatable offerings.

People leadership
• Lead and develop consultants and architects, including distributed and offshore team members.
• Review designs, models, and code, and coach the team through client exposure.

Requirements:

Required
• 10+ years in data, BI, or analytics, including several years leading teams and data initiatives.
• Deep, hands-on expertise in at least one enterprise data ecosystem (for example Oracle, Microsoft, Snowflake, or Databricks), and the judgment to lead work on others.
• Data warehouse and semantic model design, including dimensional modeling and star schemas.
• Strong SQL and integration experience across APIs, file-based feeds, and middleware or ETL tools.
• Experience with ERP-sourced data (for example NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, JD Edwards, or SAP) and the finance, sales, and supply chain processes behind it.
• Experience scoping and estimating data projects, for clients or internal stakeholders.
• A track record of measurable business outcomes, such as a faster close, better forecasting, or less manual reporting.
• Executive presence: comfortable leading steering committees and presenting to CFOs and larger audiences.

Preferred
• Experience across more than one BI platform (for example Power BI, Oracle Analytics Cloud, or Tableau).
• ERP migrations and post-acquisition system consolidation.
• Python and AI-assisted development with LLM tools.
• Consulting or professional services experience.
• Cloud, data platform, or architecture certifications.
