Tonkean is the No-Code Operation System for Business Operations

The Role

The Implementation Architect role involves managing customer onboarding, optimizing business processes, and collaborating with teams to enhance client experiences using the Tonkean platform.

Summary Generated by Built In

Tonkean is the world’s first totally customizable process experience platform. With Tonkean, you can create intelligent, personalized automations that integrate with every app or system your organization uses. You can cultivate an employee experience that democratizes access to innovative technologies traditionally only available to highly trained developers. You can enable employees to focus more fully on high-value tasks, because you can enable them to automate low-value tasks. You can create inbox solutions that automatically analyze, prioritize, and route unstructured requests coming from any source, and you can track the status of action items as employees collaborate across teams to complete them. And you can design processes that employees are guaranteed to adopt and benefit from no matter their technical acumen, because Tonkean meets employees where they are—eliminating the need for change management—and is 100% no-code.

At Tonkean, we believe that all this—compliance, efficiency, operational excellence—requires high levels of process adoption. But to ensure high levels of process adoption, you need to create processes that provide a great employee experience: that serve employees’ needs, understand their preferences, and solve their problems.

To that end, you need a barrier-breaking technology partner. That’s what Tonkean seeks to be.

ROLE OVERVIEW

Customer Discovery & Solution Design Expert

The Implementation Architect is a strategic consultant responsible for deeply understanding a client’s business processes, operational pain points, and desired outcomes. This role is initially focused on discovery and design, identifying inefficiencies and architecting ideal-state solutions using Tonkean. Beyond that, the IA will serve as ongoing support and mentoring to the Implementation Engineer role, ensuring that the IA’s design is being delivered. You will work closely with client stakeholders to ensure we design transformative, user-centric processes that align with their goals. You will not be highly involved in technical configuration or building on the Tonkean platform, but you will need to understand the platform's power, capabilities, and architecture.

This role is best suited for individuals with a strong background in process improvement, enterprise consulting, and change management.

Lead deep discovery sessions with business stakeholders to understand current processes, challenges and pain points, and strategic goals leading to documenting what success looks like.
Conduct process mapping and pain point analysis to uncover opportunities for automation and transformation.
Translate findings into high-level Tonkean solution designs — clearly defining scope, functional requirements, and user journeys into Product Requirements Documents.
Breakdown the PRD into actionable requirements that can be jointly sorted into MVP and future phase delivery.
Serve as a strategic advisor to clients, communicating the value of new process experiences and ensuring strong stakeholder alignment.
Partner closely with Implementation Engineers to hand off design documentation for execution. Vet their estimates and serve as a mentor along the journey of development and testing the solution.
Define success metrics and KPIs to measure the impact of designed solutions.
Contribute to evolving Tonkean’s discovery and design methodology and templates as the team scales.

OUR VALUES

There Is Always A Way. At Tonkean, we believe that nothing is impossible. There is a solution to every problem - you just need to find it.
Think People First. We believe in investing in, empowering, and prioritizing people. We work as a team and win as a team. We listen with purpose as we speak with courage. We believe in diversity. We always ask ourselves: Is this giving value to our customers? Is this improving our team? Is this helping me be better?
Start With Why And Fail Fast. We believe that progress is the only way forward; that action is always better than no action; that innovation requires bravery. We believe that every worthwhile “how” starts with an important “why.” If you know the “why”, and you can learn from it, It’s never a failure. It is the operational cost of progress.
No BS. To matter, you must - stay focused, keep it simple and always move the needle. We don’t have time for BS. We don’t waste energy; we prioritize efficiency; we stay focused; and we always try to optimize for what’s important.

What We Do

Tonkean is the OS for business operations, transforming operations teams from facilitators into makers with an enterprise-grade, no-code process orchestration platform. By abstracting the technical knowledge required to automate, monitor, and manage mission-critical business processes, Tonkean enables enterprises to drive operational efficiency while reducing technical debt.

Tonkean builds a bridge between business and IT, allowing IT to partner with business teams to drive agility while ensuring compliance & security. Using Tonkean, IT can create custom, reusable action blocks called "enterprise components" that enable key capabilities like updating data in existing systems, interacting with people, or deploying NLP & OCR technology. These components can then be shared securely with business operations teams, in a no-code studio, to orchestrate business processes across functions and systems by adding business logic. Business operations teams can become more self-sufficient, and IT teams can scale with confidence.

Enterprises like Lyft, EVERSANA, Instacart, Grubhub, Crypto.com, and more rely on Tonkean to optimize and align their operations across functions—including sales, marketing, customer support, legal, finance, and more. With Tonkean, enterprises can expand the pie of who can deliver software, making a world of makers.
