Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Solutions Architect - **Company:** CompassX Group Inc. - **Location:** Irvine, CA, United States - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Business Systems, SAP (Applications) - **Published:** September 27, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.juju.com/job/16_4ce98f6c2 ## About the Role * Strong background in specialized architecture, ideally having grown from roles such as business systems analyst into a platform-focused architect. * Deep expertise with at least one major enterprise platform (e.g., investment management, Aladdin, CRM, or core financial systems) and a practical understanding of its functional constraints and integration patterns. * Proven ability to design conceptual architectures for complex, multi-system environments and to perform rigorous feasibility and impact assessments. * Experience working in high-complexity, high-regulation verticals (such as financial services) and navigating legacy technology stacks without breaking critical operations. * Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain trade-offs, risks, and design decisions clearly to both technical teams and non-technical stakeholders. * A problem-solving mindset that focuses on system integrity, maintainability, and long-term scalability rather than just "getting it to work" today. * Collaborative working style, comfortable influencing without authority and partnering across engineering, product, operations, and business leadership. * Curiosity and adaptability, with a desire to continuously deepen your platform knowledge and architectural craft in a fast-evolving technology landscape. ## Description As a Solution Architect, you bridge the gap between visionary ideas and rock-solid enterprise systems, designing end-to-end architectures that actually work in complex, real-world environments. You'll partner closely with business and technology leaders to turn future-state plans into integrated, scalable platforms that are resilient, secure, and ready for growth. What You'll Do What You'll Do * Own the overall architecture for key initiatives, ensuring that future-state designs are technically viable and fully integrated across existing platforms and ecosystems. * Translate business strategies and "north star" visions into actionable architectural blueprints, roadmaps, and sequencing of projects. * Evaluate and select specific enterprise tools (for example, CRD, SAP, Aladdin or similar platforms) and define how they interact, exchange data, and enforce controls end-to-end. * Create conceptual and logical architectures, perform feasibility checks, and proactively identify integration risks before they become production issues. * Collaborate with engineers, product owners, and business stakeholders to align solution design, delivery timelines, and technical constraints. * Champion system integrity, performance, and security, ensuring that new solutions fit cleanly into legacy stacks and high-complexity environments such as financial services. * Document key decisions, architectural standards, and patterns so teams can build and operate solutions consistently. * Stay current on platform capabilities and emerging technologies, bringing informed recommendations on how to modernize, simplify, or consolidate systems over time. ## Related Videos - [Solution Architecture: A Startup Perspective](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/778-solution-architecture-a-startup-perspective) - [APIs and Architecture for scaling omnichannel payments](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/90-apis-and-architecture-for-scaling-omnichannel-payments) - [Independently together: how micro-applications improve developer experience + app performance](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/452-independently-together-how-micro-applications-improve-developer-experience-app-performance) - [Replacing Excel with SAP APIs & Python validation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1944-replacing-excel-with-sap-apis-python-validation) - [Beyond micro-services, embrace composable architecture !](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1188-beyond-micro-services-embrace-composable-architecture) - [Strong decisions - decisive distinctions between digital and analog aspects](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1687-strong-decisions-decisive-distinctions-between-digital-and-analog-aspects) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [What Makes WeAreDevelopers World Congress Different From Every Other Tech Event?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/701-what-makes-wearedevelopers-world-congress-different-from-every-other-tech-event) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Events like RSAC Get You CISOs.
