Crynodeb
We are seeking an experienced Solution Architect to join the growing Solution Engineering team. The Solution Architect will maintain ownership of the overall Route 101 solution (originated by the lead Solution Consultant) as it transitions from the point of sale into implementation. This solution will often consist of multiple technologies and therefore be dependent on several Route 101 Practices and/or vendors. The Solution Architect will need to work across these parties to ensure alignment of the design to the requirements and approved Statement of Work. This will require the production of High Level Design (HLD) documentation which will inform the Low Level Designs produced by assigned Technical Architect resource. Ultimately, the Solution Architect will be the key technical point of contact in a client delivery engagement. Furthermore, under the CX Consulting services that we provide, the Solution Architect role may also be engaged in the delivery of these service packages and the longer-term development of existing client deployments.
Key Responsibilities
• Deliver robust, scalable designs that meet client objectives.
• Reduce risk by identifying gaps in existing solution sets.
• Ensure smooth handover to implementation engineers with complete documentation.
• Drive consistency and quality across all solution engagements.
• Support and drive the sales cycle, assessing potential application of the Route 101 portfolio to meet customer needs.
• Leading complex transformational engagements and identifying business value as well as technical solutions.
• Be conversant in the broader Route 101 portfolio and its application to drive business outcomes.
• Demonstrated experience in building long-term client relationships and managing stakeholders effectively at both operational and C-level tiers.
• The ability to articulate technical solutions specifically in the context of Contact Centre operations and customer journey mapping, rather than just technical metrics.
• Evidence of using system analytics and health checks to proactively identify service improvements, rather than purely reacting to break/fix scenarios.
• A track record of identifying organic growth opportunities or 'upsell' potential through solution optimisation to support the sales function.
• Experience acting as a bridge between technical teams and consulting/commercial practices to ensure strategic alignment.
• Representing Route 101 at industry events and forums, to include delivery of webinars and public presentations.
• Carrying out industry research and analysis to keep Route 101 current, relevant and focused - which may include the writing of white-papers or other articles.
• Engage in Research & Development activities.
• Maintenance and management of Route 101 documentation templates and processes to support the Solution Architecture function.
Skills & Experience:
• Experience: Will have proven experience of solving customer contact requirements through application of contact centre technologies. Will be passionate about Cloud and emerging technologies and how these approaches can be used to address customer issues. Awareness of common components and services to support the Enterprise Architecture, and the role of the Route 101 solution within this. Experience in the production and iteration of High Level Design documents and artefacts associated with complex solution delivery. Also able to review and comment on Low Level Designs to ensure consistency with overarching solution objectives.
• Technology Expertise: Experience of cloud technologies such as Zendesk, CXone and Amazon Connect is highly desirable, as well as an up-to-date grasp of the expanding use of AI. Will have a knowledge/experience of integration methods, such as APIs and web-based applications, in particular commonly adopted CRM platforms.
• Stakeholder Management: Employ a consultative approach to understand the business requirements of the prospective customer and translate this to the technical solution. Adapt to and work effectively with a variety of clients and in challenging situations, establishing credibility and trust quickly. Confident in presenting to audiences of all sizes and levels of seniority.
• Project/Time Management: Must be organised and take ownership for certain delegated projects and can work with a certain degree of autonomy. Able to demonstrate a degree of leadership within a given project across the assembled architecture resource.
• Problem Solving: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a focus on delivering practical, client-focused solutions. Able to quickly grasp complex problems and analyse available information to seek resolution.
• Education: Educated to degree level or equivalent relevant industry experience and certification. Will demonstrate a very high standard of spoken and written English.
