Full description
Zingly is looking for a Senior Solutions Architect who combines deep software engineering expertise, strong architectural capabilities, and excellent customer-facing skills to design and deliver enterprise-grade AI solutions. This is a hands-on technical leadership role, not a traditional advisory or pre-sales-only architecture position. The ideal candidate will own the complete customer technical journey from pre-sales discovery and solution design to hands-on development, enterprise integration, production deployment, and post-go-live stability.
We are looking for someone equally comfortable presenting architecture to CXOs, designing complex distributed systems, writing production code, and troubleshooting critical integrations. The role will focus on building scalable voice AI, conversational AI, digital AI, and enterprise customer experience (CX) solutions.
The core responsibilities for the job include the following:
Solution Architecture and Technical Leadership:
- Design scalable, secure, and reliable enterprise AI and SaaS architectures.
- Own end-to-end solution architecture, including APIs, microservices, distributed systems, event-driven integrations, cloud infrastructure, and data flows.
- Translate customer business requirements into practical technical designs and implementation roadmaps.
- Define architectural standards covering security, authentication, scalability, performance, and reliability.
- Identify technical risks early and recommend solutions that balance customer requirements with platform scalability.
Hands-On Engineering and Development:
- Actively contribute to software development, API implementation, integration development, debugging, and technical problem-solving.
- Build production-ready components, integrations, and AI-powered workflows.
- Develop proofs of concept and convert validated solutions into scalable production systems.
- Participate in code reviews, technical design discussions, performance optimization, and troubleshooting.
- Ensure strong engineering practices across testing, CI/CD, monitoring, observability, and deployment.
- Recent hands-on coding experience is essential. Candidates should have personally developed and delivered production software, not just managed engineering teams.
Enterprise Integrations and AI Solutions:
- Architect and implement integrations with CRM, CCaaS, CPaaS, ERP, banking, ticketing, and other enterprise platforms.
- Design and deliver voice AI, digital AI, conversational workflows, and customer automation solutions.
- Work with REST APIs, webhooks, authentication protocols, event-driven architectures, and enterprise data integrations.
- Ensure seamless integration between AI applications and existing customer technology ecosystems.
