SpendHQ is looking for a Technical Implementation Architect to serve as the client-facing technical authority across enterprise implementation, selected pre-sales discovery and post-implementation needs.

This role sits within the Delivery organization and works closely with Sales, Solutions, Customer Success, Security, Product, Engineering, and Data Integration teams. You will help prospects and customers understand SpendHQ’s architecture, integration patterns, data flows, SSO, APIs, SFTP, secure connectivity options, and implementation best practices.

The purpose of this role is to reduce technical ambiguity, keep implementations aligned to SpendHQ’s standard product capabilities, and ensure that routine technical questions can be handled without unnecessary Engineering involvement. You will be technical enough to speak credibly with client IT teams, practical enough to unblock implementation work. This is not a pure Sales Engineering role, Project Management role, or Data Engineering role.

It is a client-facing technical architecture role focused on making enterprise implementations smoother, faster, and more consistent.

• You will support conversations with prospects where technical architecture, integrations, data flows, security, SSO, APIs, or client IT requirements are material to the deal or future implementation.
• Serve as a technical voice for SpendHQ pre and post implementation lifecycle: explain architecture, integration options, data flows, and connection methods (APIs, SSO, SFTP, MCP) to prospects and their IT teams.
• Field live technical questions in evaluation meetings and work with internal experts on advanced questions before responding to clients.
• Support technical discovery calls and produce client-ready (not internal-draft) materials -- decks, FAQs, and explanations that are usable in front of a prospect’s IT department as-is.
• Coordinate with the security/RFP resource on security questionnaire response, providing technical input where needed.
• Promote SpendHQ best practices and guide prospects toward approaches that align with standard Delivery, Product capabilities and the Product roadmap.

• Work directly with client implementation teams on technical configuration: API setup, SSO, SFTP, and related connection work.
• Sit between the client and SpendHQ engineering/data teams during implementation, as a technical participant who can resolve straightforward items directly, not solely a router of requests.
• Identify when a client question genuinely needs engineering time versus when it can be resolved directly, to reduce unnecessary engineering hours in client meetings.
• Partner with the Data Integration Engineer role on accounts where ETL/pipeline work intersects with client-side configuration questions.

• Create and maintain reusable playbooks, discovery guides, and FAQs for recurring technical topics (a byproduct of doing the work, not the primary mandate).
• Use SpendHQ's enterprise AI tool(s) to improve how you work, accelerate research and documentation, and support more consistent technical guidance across teams.
• Coach Customer Success, Solutions and Delivery colleagues so they can handle…
