This is a newly created role designed to expand local technical capacity in one of the fastest-growing energy markets in the world. The Solutions Architect Analyst will provide pre- and post-sales technical support, own standard integration workflows, and act as an in-market technical partner for Houston-area customers and prospects. Reporting to the Head of Solutions Architecture in New York, this is an excellent opportunity for an analytically-minded technologist with an interest in energy markets to build deep expertise at the intersection of data, APIs, and enterprise client delivery. Client Engagement & Pre-Sales * Partner with Sales, Customer Success, and Product to scope presales requirements and define client-aligned technical solutions. * Lead early-stage technical qualification alongside Sales - assessing prospect API-readiness, understanding existing data infrastructure, identifying internal champions, and defining what a successful proof of concept looks like before a trial begins. * Deliver credible technical presentations of Vortexa's SDK/API capabilities to prospects and clients. * Manage trial and POC engagements with defined success criteria and milestones - owning the technical outcome from setup through to conversion decision, not just providing reactive support. * Own competitive technical positioning in client and prospect conversations - confidently addressing integration and data quality objections, and articulating Vortexa's API advantages relative to alternatives in the market. * Create bespoke technical solutions and workflows leveraging Vortexa's external interfaces for energy and freight market intelligence use cases. Post-Sales Support & Integration * Provide ongoing support for newly onboarded API accounts, guiding integrations into client databases, applications, and BI environments. * Collaborate with CSMs and Sales to proactively identify new integration opportunities and support deeper product adoption. * Act as a client-facing conduit for product feedback, surfacing enhancement opportunities to the Product and R & D teams. * Monitor API usage health across the active client base - tracking adoption patterns, flagging accounts showing low engagement or unusual drop-off, and initiating proactive outreach before issues become churn signals. * Identify and develop technical champions within client organizations - building relationships with the individuals who own or influence the integration internally, ensuring Vortexa has an advocate when commercial conversations arise. * Actively surface expansion signals to Sales - connecting client usage patterns (e.g., new data types being queried, increased call volume) to commercial opportunities and flagging them with the relevant account owner. Technical Contribution * Develop and maintain integration patterns, code examples, and technical documentation in Vortexa's Solutions GitHub repository (Python files, Jupyter notebooks). * Contribute to content development - including tutorials, blog posts, and roadshow materials - that showcases the capabilities of Vortexa's SDK/API. * Work collaboratively with the broader SA team using methods such as pair programming to develop efficient, reusable data scripts. * Support Sales enablement - coaching AEs on when and how to engage the SA, how to handle basic technical questions independently, and how to position API vs. GUI delivery in discovery conversations. * Support R & D teams in testing new features and improving SDK/API documentation. ## Related Videos - [Beyond Dashboards: Fixing Text-to-SQL with Semantic RAG](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2036-beyond-dashboards-fixing-text-to-sql-with-semantic-rag) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1209-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [How Cisco embraced a DevOps culture within its network engineering team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/99-how-cisco-embraced-a-devops-culture-within-its-network-engineering-team) - [Hacking AI at the Edge of the Indian Ocean](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100177-hacking-ai-at-the-edge-of-the-indian-ocean) - [Hiring AI Native Talents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100268-hiring-ai-native-talents) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Graph and AI Trends 2026: Why Is AI Running but Not Yet Delivering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/680-graph-and-ai-trends-2026-why-is-ai-running-but-not-yet-delivering) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift)
