About the role

The Wireless Solutions Architect II is a senior, client-facing technical leader responsible for defining strategy, designing complex enterprise wireless solutions, and guiding implementation teams to success. This role requires deep expertise in modern WLAN architectures, with a heavy emphasis on Juniper Mist, and strong experience across HPE Aruba and Cisco wireless portfolios.

The Architect II will own end‑to‑end wireless solution design, from discovery and conceptual architecture through detailed design, deployment guidance, and optimization. This individual will serve as a trusted advisor to clients, provide direction to engineering teams, and act as an escalation point for complex wireless performance and reliability issues.

Key responsibilities include:

Client Leadership & Strategy Serve as the primary wireless architecture advisor to enterprise clients, shaping overall WLAN strategy and roadmap.

Lead client workshops, assessments, and design sessions to translate business requirements into scalable, secure, and resilient wireless architectures.

Present solutions, design decisions, and trade‑offs to both technical and executive stakeholders in clear, business‑aligned language.

Architecture & Design Own the end‑to‑end technical design of wireless solutions, with a focus on Juniper Mist, including:

RF design and validation for complex office, campus, industrial, and/or retail environments.

Architecture for WLAN, LAN/WLAN integration, cloud-managed platforms, and integration with security and identity services.

High‑availability, redundancy, and scalability planning.

Develop high‑quality design artifacts: HLDs, LLDs, BOMs, diagrams, configuration standards, and implementation guidelines.

Define and enforce wireless design standards, reference architectures, and best practices across projects.

Technical Leadership & Team Guidance Provide technical direction to teams of network and wireless engineers during deployment and optimization phases.

Function as a top‑tier escalation point for complex wireless issues, driving root cause analysis and permanent corrective actions.

Mentor and coach engineers on wireless design concepts, tools, and troubleshooting methodologies.

Provide architectural and design peer reviews and serve as oversite for wireless projects.

Implementation Support & Troubleshooting Guide and oversee survey, design, and validation work using Ekahau and Hamina, ensuring alignment with client performance and coverage requirements.

Lead complex troubleshooting efforts involving RF interference, capacity issues, roaming problems, client behavior, and application performance.

Collaborate with OEM support (Juniper Mist, HPE Aruba, Cisco) on escalations, TAC cases, and advanced feature implementation.

Standards, Governance & Continuous Improvement Contribute to internal best practices, standards, and reusable design patterns for wireless solutions.

Evaluate emerging wireless technologies (e.g., Wi‑Fi 6/6E/7, location services, IoT integration, AI‑driven operations) and advise clients and internal leadership on their applicability.

Support pre‑sales and solutioning efforts by providing accurate level‑of‑effort estimates, scope definitions, and technical input to proposals/ AmbITious:
