Enterprise Architect in Atlanta, Georgia

Enterprise Architect

Slalom is seeking an Enterprise Architect who can bring the art of the possible to life across large, complex client programs. This person combines broad technology depth, strong business judgment, and a practical delivery mindset to help clients turn ambitious outcomes into coherent, executable solutions. The Enterprise Architect will work across a portfolio of Salesforce, integration, cloud, data, and enterprise applications-not just a single platform-to define a clear technical direction and help teams deliver it.

They will be equally credible with executives, product and business leaders, architects, and delivery teams. This is a hands-on consulting role: the architect organizes the right people, resolves difficult tradeoffs, advances sales and delivery, and produces tangible work products that move a program forward. In addition to expanding and developing Slalom's Enterprise Architecture capability, this role owns technical visions, target-state architectures, and roadmaps for strategic programs and pursuits.

Architecture governance is used as a practical means to accelerate sound decisions and delivery-not as a detached governance function.

Partner with client executives, business leaders, and delivery teams to understand desired outcomes, business processes, functional requirements, non-functional requirements, constraints, and measures of success.

Translate those needs into practical, enterprise-level solution strategies and target-state architectures spanning business, application, integration, data, technology, security, and operating-model considerations.

Shape integrated solution portfolios that may include Salesforce core platform capabilities;
Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Experience Cloud, Marketing Cloud, Commerce Cloud, Data Cloud, and related products;
Mule Soft and API-led integration; hyperscaler services on AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform; data platforms such as Databricks and Snowflake; ERP and other enterprise applications.

Lead collaborative architecture, discovery, and design sessions that align business, functional, technical, data, security, and operational stakeholders around a feasible path forward.

Produce and maintain clear architecture artifacts-including solution visions, capability maps, system context and integration designs, data flows, non-functional requirements, decision records, roadmaps, and phased delivery approaches-that enable teams to act.

Assess current-state landscapes, identify gaps, risks, dependencies, and technical debt, and recommend sequenced improvements that balance business value, delivery speed, cost, resilience, security, and maintainability.

Guide the technical strategy and integrated delivery of large, multi-workstream programs, including custom development, package configuration, integration, data migration, platform engineering, environment and release management, and change adoption dependencies.

Establish lightweight, fit-for-purpose architecture guardrails and design reviews that improve quality, consistency, and reuse while keeping teams moving quickly.

Work with account, pursuit, and delivery leaders to shape opportunities, estimate technical work, define delivery approaches, communicate tradeoffs, and build client confidence from early sales through program execution.

Lead and mentor solution architects, technical architects, engineers, and cross-functional teams; create alignment across work streams and resolve complex decisions before they become delivery blockers.

Contribute to the growth of Slalom's Enterprise Architecture capability through reusable methods, points of view, accelerators, community building, mentoring, and active knowledge sharing.

Maintain a target billable utilization aligned to the role.

10+ years of experience in solution, technical, enterprise, or domain architecture roles, including significant experience leading complex technology programs or transformations in a consulting or client-facing environment.

Demonstrated ability to lead large, multi-workstream programs from shaping through delivery-connecting business outcomes to a portfolio of technical solutions and coordinating teams across platforms, vendors, and organizational boundaries.

Deep Salesforce platform experience, including core CRM capabilities and multiple clouds such as Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Experience Cloud, Marketing Cloud, Commerce Cloud, Data Cloud, or comparable Salesforce products; able to determine when Salesforce is the right answer and how it should fit within a broader enterprise landscape.

Strong integration architecture experience, including Mule Soft or comparable integration platforms, APIs, event-driven patterns, data synchronization, security, error handling, and operational support considerations.

Working depth in one or more hyperscaler platforms (AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform), and familiarity with modern data platforms such as Databricks, Snowflake, or comparable technologies.
