Backed by leading US investors, we are scaling rapidly across the US and India, with a sharp focus on BFSI, Financial Services, and Fintech.

About the Role

As a Solution Architect, you will own solution design from discovery to delivery. You will work closely with enterprise customers, translating their strategic goals into clear, buildable architectures for chat/voice agents.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead solution design workshops; frame trade-offs and align stakeholders on approach.

  • Produce and present clear documentation (flows, assumptions, integration models, timelines).

  • Advise on enterprise data, integrations, and compliance considerations; de-risk edge cases early.

  • Serve as a trusted advisor to executives and client technical teams.

  • Collaborate with Implementation Engineers, Product, and Sales to ensure delivery meets commitments.

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong client-facing consulting skills; comfortable engaging senior executives.

  • Deep understanding of enterprise architectures and integration patterns.

  • Passion for AI, automation, and voice-driven products.

  • Ability to frame trade-offs and influence decision-making with clarity and confidence.

  • Proficiency in Python (or similar languages) and API-driven architectures.

  • Experience in BFSI, Fintech, or Financial Services, ideally in the US market.

  • Excellent communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills

Success Metrics

  • Positive customer alignment with minimal scope churn.

  • Approved solution designs with clear business and technical value.

  • On-time handoffs and successful adoption by enterprise customers.
