Remote Delivery Solutions Architect jobs

13 open positions in the United States, newest first.

Works on the post-sale side as the senior technical lead on customer implementations, designing how a platform will be deployed in the customer's environment and guiding the build. The delivery qualifier separates this from presales architects: the work begins after the contract is signed and is measured by a working production system. The title is common in professional services at data and cloud vendors.

About the Delivery Solutions Architect role

What the work looks like

  • Assesses the customer's current architecture and writes the target design, covering data flows, security, and environments.
  • Builds reference implementations and pairs with the customer's engineers on pipelines, migrations, or integrations.
  • Leads technical workshops and architecture reviews with the customer's engineering leads and security team.
  • Scopes follow-on work, estimates effort, and contributes to statements of work with the engagement manager.
  • Feeds recurring field problems and feature gaps back to the vendor's product and engineering teams.

What employers ask for

  • Cloud architecture on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud
  • Hands-on coding in Python, SQL, or Scala
  • Data platform or distributed systems experience
  • Leading customer technical workshops
  • Migration planning and performance tuning
  • Consulting or professional services background

Doing this job remotely

Engagements are often run remotely against the customer's cloud environment, using the access and devices the customer provides. Travel to customer sites for kickoffs and design workshops is a common requirement, and its extent varies by employer. The architect's calendar follows the customer's time zone, and several engagements may run in parallel.

Where it comes from and where it leads

Most have years behind them as software, data, or cloud engineers, often with consulting experience. The role leads to principal or lead architect in professional services, practice management, or a move into presales architecture or product roles.
