Solutions Architect - Data Engineering

What are we looking for
real solver?
Solver? Absolutely. But not the usual kind.  We're searching for the architects of the audacious & the pioneers of the possible. If you're the type to dismantle assumptions, re-engineer ‘best practices,’ and build solutions that make the future possible NOW, then you're speaking our language.
Improver. Solver. Futurist.
Great sense of humor.
‘Possible. It is.’ Mindset.
Compassionate collaborator. Bold experimenter. Tireless iterator.
Natural creativity that doesn’t just challenge the norm, but solves to design what’s better.
Thinks in systems. Solves at scale.

This Isn’t for Everyone.  But if you’re the kind who questions  why  things are done a certain way— and then identifies 3 better ways to do it — we’d love to chat with you.

Your Responsibilities
what you will wake up to solve.

You are not just a Solutions Architect; you are a futurifier of our data universe and the primary enabler of our AI ambitions. With a deep-seated passion for data engineering, you will architect and build the foundational data infrastructure that powers the customers entire data intelligence ecosystem.
As the Directly Responsible Individual (DRI) for our enterprise-grade data platforms, you own the outcome, end-to-end. You are the definitive solver for our customer's most complex data challenges, leveraging a powerful tech stack including Snowflake, Databricks, etc. and core GCP & AWS services (Big Query, Spanner, Airflow, Kafka). This is a hands-on-keys role where you won't just design solutions—you'll build them, break them, and perfect them.

Solution Design & Pre-sales Excellence:
Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including sales, engineering, and operations, to ensure successful project delivery.
Design Core Data Engineering:  Master data modeling, architecting high-performance data ingestion pipelines and ensuring data quality and governance throughout the data lifecycle.
Enable Cloud & AI:  Design and implement solutions utilizing core GCP data services, building foundational data platforms that efficiently support advanced analytics and AI/ML initiatives.
Optimize Performance & Cost:  Continuously optimize data architectures and implementations for performance, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness within the cloud environment.
Bridge Business & Tech:  Translate complex business requirements into clear technical designs, providing technical leadership and guidance to data engineering teams.
Stay Ahead of the Curve:  Continuously research and evaluate new data technologies, architectural patterns, and industry trends to keep our data platforms at the cutting edge.

The DNA of a ‘Searcian’
superpowers we value.
The ‘happier’ core
happier-at-heart:
h umble,  a daptable,  p ositive,  p assionate,  i nnovative,  e xcellence-minded,  r esponsible.
happier-in-action:  Not just a poster on the wall;
It's how we make decisions, treat each other, show up for clients & hire or promote people.
Thinks like a founder. Acts like an owner.
Always in Beta:  Relentless curiosity. Openness to learn, un-learn, and re-learn.
Real Optimist:  Views all setbacks as opportunities.
Believes in truth over comfort. Ideas over titles. Learning over knowing.
Embraces chaos with calm. Evolves faster than the market.
