Solution Architect, Pre Sales (Remote)

Symphony Industrial AI, Inc., WorkFromHome, MN, United States


Introduction

SymphonyAI Industrial is a global leader in Industrial AI, enabling manufacturers and asset-intensive enterprises to transform fragmented IT, OT, and edge data into real-time, contextual intelligence that improves uptime, throughput, and operational efficiency.

Our platform is built onVertical AI - domain-aware models, ontologies, and knowledge graphs that understand industrial operations from day one. We are seeking aSoftware Architect to join our customer applications team and play a defining role in shaping the future of our industrial AI platform.

This role is for asenior architect with a deep curiosity for how systems really works - someone who enjoys reverse-engineering complex platforms, challenging assumptions, and designing forward-looking architectures while staying hands‑on and closely connected to engineering teams.

Job Description

What You Will Do

  • Own and evolve the platform-level architecture across cloud, edge, data, and AI systems, with a focus on scalability, resilience, and long-term extensibility.
  • Designend-to-end system architectures , from industrial data ingestion and microservices to AI/ML workflows and user‑facing applications.
  • Act as atechnical thought partner to engineering, ML, and product leaders — shaping decisions early rather than reviewing them late.
  • Reverse engineer existing systems, legacy platforms, and third‑party integrations to uncover constraints, risks, and opportunities for modernization.
  • Define and documentclear architectural patterns, reference designs, and system flows that accelerate development and reduce ambiguity.
  • Drive adoption ofmodern, cloud‑native and event‑driven architectures , including microservices, APIs, orchestration, and data pipelines.
  • Stay current onemerging technologies across AI, distributed systems, and developer platforms — prototyping and validating where appropriate.
  • Lead by example throughhands‑on technical engagement , design reviews, and selective code contributions.
  • Identify systemic bottlenecks, architectural debt, and scaling risks — and proactively drive solutions.

What You Bring

  • A stronginnovation mindset — you enjoy ambiguity, experimentation, and designing systems that don’t yet have clear precedents.
  • Proven experience architectinglarge‑scale, distributed, data‑intensive platforms , ideally with AI‑enabled components.
  • Deep understanding ofmicroservice architecture , cloud‑native design, APIs, messaging/eventing, and distributed data systems.
  • Strong full‑stack technical depth , with the ability to reason about backend services, data platforms, and modern front‑end architectures.
  • Practical exposure toAI/ML systems , such as model integration, inference pipelines, feature stores, or analytics workflows.
  • Exceptional ability tocommunicate architecture visually and clearly through diagrams, flows, and written documentation.
  • A collaborative leadership style — you elevate teams through partnership rather than command‑and‑control.
  • Experience in industrial, enterprise SaaS, or complex platform environments is highly valued.

Requirements / Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 10+ years of software engineering experience, with5+ years in senior or principal‑level architecture roles .
  • Strong proficiency in modern programming languages (e.g., Python, Java, C#, TypeScript).
  • Extensive experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), containers, and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Familiarity with AI/ML frameworks, data platforms, and analytics systems.
  • Outstanding systems thinking, problem‑solving, and communication skills.

What Success Looks Like in 6-12 Months

  • You have developed adeep, working understanding of the existing platform , including its strengths, limitations, and technical debt.
  • You’ve identified and articulated aclear architectural evolution strategy , aligned with product and business priorities.
  • Engineering teams are usingyour architectural patterns, diagrams, and reference designs to move faster with greater consistency.
  • You’ve influenced or led the design ofkey platform capabilities (e.g., data pipelines, AI integration, core services, or scalability improvements).
  • Technical discussions are sharper and more forward‑looking due to your involvement — fewer reactive fixes, more intentional design.
  • You are recognized as ago‑to architectural authority and innovation partner across engineering, ML, and product teams.
  • The platform is measurably morescalable, maintainable, and innovation‑ready than when you joined.
