About The Role Constructor's Solutions Architects are responsible for driving a diverse set of product initiatives and technical outcomes with our current client base and, often, with prospective customers. You will play a crucial role in the growth and retention of our customers by providing a unique combination of technical expertise and strategic vision to support their eCommerce and overall business objectives. This is not a role focused on demonstrating and clicking through a piece of vendor software. You will collaborate closely with our customers, understanding their needs and goals, effectively demonstrating how Constructor's AI-Powered eCommerce Search and Product Discovery Platform can be optimized to meet and exceed their expectations. Your strong technical background, combined with effective communication and a penchant for problem solving will be key in achieving sales and retention goals and building lasting customer relationships. The Solutions Architect will be focused on supporting our Account Management team, our Customer Success team, and our Product organization. You will be heavily involved in driving company strategy, product roadmap, and in enabling revenue teams. Supporting these initiatives requires someone highly collaborative, coachable and comfortable working with a variety of departments. Solutions Architects are relied on for thought leadership, the ability to write clear and value-driven documentation and aptitude for process development. The ideal candidate is a skilled listener with innate curiosity that understands the value of "why," and recognizes that "why" almost always comes before "how" and "what". They must have the personal qualities to thrive in a fast-paced sales environment and have the unique ability to gain a 360-degree view of our business to become a creative and technical go-to-market team member for Constructor. You will be required to develop a deep understanding of Constructor's search and product discovery platform, its features, capabilities, and integration methods. Staying up to date with industry trends, competitor offerings, and emerging technologies to articulate the differentiation of Constructor to prospects will be critical. Our next Solutions Architect is well-versed in enterprise eCommerce and has experience with Cloud technologies, data science and analytics/testing principles, SaaS, solution design, software development methodology, security requirements, SaaS architectures, and enterprise integrations. You are comfortable presenting to prospects and partners to showcase Constructor's differentiation and integration methodologies through a lens of technical expertise. Constructor, a 100% remote company, is in the process of building its Solutions Architect team and is seeking individuals who thrive in building out a department, and processes while helping scale out a newer function within the greater organization. This requires a proactive approach to learning and a self-starter mindset especially when faced with ambiguity. Technical Expertise This role requires a strong technical foundation. Ideal candidates should have prior experience working with APIs, data structures, testing and analytics and software integrations. While hands-on development experience is not required, prior coding experience has been beneficial in the role.
