Solutions Architect within e-commerce

As a Solutions Architect, you work across many different areas within digital commerce where the end goal is to help our clients meet their business objectives. You're typically engaged in project pre-studies (Discovery), pre-sales, and ad-hoc client consulting assignments. In addition, you play an essential role in gathering and documenting technical and business requirements and defining and developing technical solutions that align with client business goals and objectives. Finally, as an expert on the technology stack and architecture, you work across our complete platform offering and design solutions for smaller and larger multi-platform implementations.

You work closely with both business and technical people on the client-side, and platform-specific Subject Matter experts (developers/Business Consultants/System Architects) who own the platform-specific technical solutions, where your responsibility is to make sure that all solutions, platforms, integrations, and data flows are working across the proposed delivery solution. Depending on your background, you might be a Subject Matter expert yourself.

Your focus will be on the Swedish market but you will also work on sales cases and with Vaimo clients in other countries. This role reports to the Country Manager.
