Job description

At Sol, implementation is not a services layer, it’s a core product capability.

We’re hiring an Product Architect, Implementations to help us redesign how complex HR systems are deployed, configured, and migrated. The right person for this role has done enough implementations to love the craft and be frustrated by the process. They know what breaks, they know why it keeps breaking, and they want to be the person who finally fixes it at the platform level.

This person brings deep, hands-on HRIS implementation experience and uses it to design and spec the tooling that will power AI-native implementations - turning messy, bespoke customer complexity into durable platform capability.

You will sit at the intersection of customer, product, and engineering. The implementation work you do with early customers isn’t just delivery - it’s product research. Every configuration decision, every migration edge case, every workaround a customer needed in their last system is signal for what Sol should be able to handle natively.

What You’ll Do

  • Act as Sol’s internal expert on modern HRIS implementations - the person who has seen enough real-world complexity to know what actually breaks
  • Redesign implementation for an AI-native world: design and spec tooling that enables automation, intelligent migration, and dramatically reduced manual effort
  • Write implementation product specs that translate real customer complexity into platform requirements engineering can build against
  • Partner with engineering to build implementation tooling - you’re not handing off requirements, you’re co-building
  • Work directly with early customers to validate that Sol’s implementation tooling holds up against real-world variation
  • Roll up your sleeves to support hands-on implementations while product capabilities mature - and bring back what you learn

Requirements

Do you have experience in Technical solutions implementation?, * You’ve led or been deeply hands-on in multiple HRIS implementations - not one, not inherited, multiple - and you’ve lived with what breaks

  • You’ve worked either as a consultant across multiple customers and industries, or in-house across multiple companies or meaningfully complex environments
  • You’ve navigated mid-market to enterprise complexity: 200-2,000+ FTE, global, multiple worker types, nuanced policy variation
  • You’ve implemented platforms like Workday, HiBob, Dayforce, SAP, Oracle- you know the configuration surface area
  • You can design and spec implementation: you write structured product specs, not just requirements docs, and you think systemically about what belongs in configuration vs. code
  • You’re comfortable being customer-facing and operating in early-stage ambiguity - you don’t need a defined playbook, you’re here to build one
  • You engage with technical conversations about architecture and data modeling rather than routing around them

Bonus if you have:

  • Experience with data and config extraction or migration from legacy systems (ETL)
  • Prior product management experience
  • A technical background that helps you reason about configuration vs. hard-coded software boundaries

About the company

Sol is an agentic HR system built for how work is changing. We’re replacing the traditional HRIS with an AI-native foundation. We are built for change, designed to scale, and reimagined with AI from the ground up, so HR leaders get a clear view of their workforce instead of a system everyone works around.

Sol was founded by leaders who spent decades building the modern HR category, and is backed by Sutter Hill Ventures and NEA. Our first customers go live in early 2027 and we need you to make them wildly successful.
