You won’t be building buildings, but you’ll be building!

As a Solution Architect, you will provide technical leadership for a team of consultants in the design and development of solutions for our clients. You will determine comprehensive technical requirements, with respect to infrastructure, hardware, internal development, integration of new or existing tools, and more. Partnering with a Project Manager, you’ll advise clients and encourage open dialogue and collaboration.

This role requires extensive experience in architecting and deploying web-based and web-enabled business applications. You must possess hands-on experience in developing and deploying distributed architectures and platforms, creating benchmark tests, designing for scalability and performance, and implementation for custom applications, CRM, Business Intelligence, and cloud solutions and services.

Those adept at balancing business need and software development best practices in equal measure will find success. Your team may be as large as six, or as small as just you. Either way, a love of hands-on development, collaboration, and constant learning is a must. Those that are willing to step outside the bounds of traditional development, and embrace SaaS solutions, development libraries, and enterprise platforms will have a competitive advantage… just like Mind Over Machines!
