Solutions Architect, Growth

Overview

LMI is seeking an experienced Solutions Architect to join our Growth Operations organization and serve as the technical backbone of our client-facing business development efforts. This role sits on the BD/capture side:you'll architect the technical solutions behind our pursuits.
