Position Overview: As a Services Solution Architect specializing in Networking solutions within the Solutions group, you will lead the development of enterprise networking services across campus and branch modernization, SD-WAN transformation, data center networking, wireless and secure access enablement, network management platforms, and lifecycle services. You will translate customer requirements into structured, delivery-ready networking solutions.
You will independently navigate clients through modern network architectures while developing competitive business cases, cost estimates, and risk-adjusted pricing strategies. In this role, you will lead technical discovery sessions to identify business drivers, technical requirements, environmental constraints, and operational dependencies, translating these findings into detailed scopes, activity-driven delivery plans, and commercial models.
This role requires deep networking expertise and strong professional services discipline. As a senior individual contributor, you will serve as the deal "quarterback," owning solution development from discovery through final approval prior to submission. You will align architects, sales teams, and delivery stakeholders to a unified, executable solution, ensuring technical accuracy, scope clarity, and commercial viability.
Job Responsibilities- Enterprise Networking Solutions: Lead client engagements to understand requirements and develop practical, implementable networking solutions across core routing and switching, SD-WAN, data center networking (including spine-leaf and overlay architectures), wireless, identity-based access, and network management platforms.
- Opportunity Alignment & Discovery: Work closely with account teams to qualify opportunities, lead structured discovery sessions, validate scope boundaries, and align solutions to customer technical and operational needs.
- Financial Modeling & Estimation: Develop cost estimates that factor in delivery complexity, sequencing, and execution risk. Independently build detailed, activity-based Level of Effort (LoE) models using task-level work breakdown structures (WBS), resource alignment, and phased timelines aligned to centralized delivery model.
- Proposal & SOW Development: Craft clear, defensible proposals aligned to defined scope and delivery outcomes. Translate approved scope and LoE into formal Statements of Work (SOW), including deliverables, milestones, assumptions, exclusions, acceptance criteria, and governance structure.
- Risk & Deal Governance: Serve as the final solution authority prior to submission, ensuring scope clarity, delivery feasibility, and margin protection. Assess integration complexity, customer readiness, scale, and third-party dependencies, incorporating mitigation strategies and contingency into pricing and contractual language.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Build strong working relationships across sales, delivery, and services teams to ensure alignment and execution readiness within a centralized delivery model.
- Performance Expectations: Success in this role is measured by solution quality, estimation accuracy, defensibility of scope, margin performance, and the ability to enable sales teams to successfully close services engagements.
