If you’re ambitious, curious, and excited by the idea of building something meaningful in a fast-moving tech business.
The Solutions Architect is a senior customer-facing role responsible for leading new customer implementation projects from initial discovery through to a successful go-live. You are the person who bridges the gap between what a customer needs and what the Max Contact platform can deliver — designing solutions that drive measurable value from day one.
You work directly with customers to understand their business pains, map those pains to platform features, and produce a solution design handed to the System Build team to configure. Once built, you own testing and quality assurance before handing back to the customer for go-live.
This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role. You design — you do not build — but you are accountable for the quality and completeness of what you hand off, and for the customer experience throughout.
Responsibilities Discovery & Solution Design- Lead structured discovery sessions with customers to surface business pains, objectives, and success criteria.
- Map customer requirements to Max Contact platform features and capabilities, maximising adoption of features within their contracted package.
- Produce clear solution designs — call flows, routing logic, IVR frameworks, integrations, and reporting structures — ready for handoff to System Build.
- Challenge customers constructively where their initial thinking would limit outcomes or create downstream issues.
- Identify opportunities to expand platform adoption beyond the minimum viable scope.
- Own the project plan from kick-off through go-live, ensuring delivery against agreed dates and within estimated resource hours.
- Coordinate internal handoffs between discovery, build, testing, and go-live to maintain momentum and customer confidence.
- Proactively manage scope, timeline, and risks — flagging early and resolving before they become issues.
- Ensure every project closes with a completed handover to the Customer Success team, including documented outcomes and feature adoption baseline.
- Own the testing phase: validate that the configured solution matches the approved design and meets the customer's success criteria.
- Manage the go-live process, including customer sign-off, live support during launch, and resolution of any critical issues.
- Ensure customers are set up for self-sufficiency post-go-live, with appropriate knowledge transfer and documentation completed.
- Drive feature adoption proactively throughout the implementation — a customer should be using at least 75% of features in their package at go-live.
- Define and document the customer's success outcomes before go-live, establishing a clear baseline for the CSM to measure against.
- Identify and communicate upsell or expansion opportunities identified during the implementation to the account team.
- Maintain commercial awareness of PS charges and their impact on project profitability.
- Contribute to monthly PS fee targets across your portfolio of projects.
- Identify in-flight opportunities…
