Technical Architect

How you'll make an impact:
As a Technical Architect you will work within the Solution Architecture program of Client Services. Your primary responsibility will be to serve your client-facing colleagues with the complex issues they face as they deliver for our clients, both during implementation and afterwards in post go-live support. Writing defects and change requests where appropriate for follow-up by our Product Management and Development teams is a top priority. Ideal candidates are driven to grow as subject-matter experts in their respective practice of the StrataJazz® platform.

• Consistently demonstrate a deep understanding of StrataJazz architecture, procedures, workflow and SQL code for all modules within the practice
• Serve as the primary technical resource for supporting team members in building their understanding of how our tools should be implemented and how issues & complex requirements should be addressed
• Minimize unbillable time spent on defects, issues, complex configurations, and rework resulting from incorrect configurations
• Identify common/recurring technical issues with both Technical Consulting and Product Management
• Identify affected clients when defects/issues present themselves, track resolution of defect/issue, and communicate to team and/or clients when defect/issue has been addressed
• Serve as trusted technical advisor to highly complex projects
• Translate client requirements into standard best practice configurations that meet client needs, minimize technical debt, and maintain the integrity of the platform

Thinking about applying?
Research shows that women and underrepresented groups tend to apply to jobs only when they check every box on a job posting. If you're currently reading this and hesitating to click "Apply" for that reason, we encourage you to go for it! A true passion and excitement for making an impact is just as important as work experience.
Should you require a reasonable accommodation in completing this application, interviewing, completing any pre-employment testing, or otherwise participating in the employee selection process, please reach out to [email protected].
