Render's singular focus is best summarised by our purpose; continuously innovate and evolve technology to build networks better and connect communities.
Render's geospatial network construction platform enables telecommunication network operators and construction teams to digitize the construction workflow and cut the time and cost of large-scale fiber deployment.
With greater than $60B in annual US network infrastructure investment forecast to continue for the next decade, the need for technology-enabled efficiency and construction innovation is acute.
Render's market-leading platform is experiencing rapid adoption, and in partnership with new majority partners IFM Investors, Render is perfectly positioned to build on existing momentum and realize significant incremental growth.
Our partnership with IFM Investors further empowers us to fast-track Render’s next wave of product innovation for our customers and the evolving global telecommunications industry, and we are looking for exceptional talent to join us on the journey.
Our team all have a genuine passion for innovation and technology's role in enabling global communities to thrive. Beyond our work, our values shape everything that we do at Render and we can not overstate how central these statements are to our culture:
- Lead Boldly with Courageous Innovation
- Integrity and Accountability
- Put Customers at the Center
The Partner Solutions Architect (PSA) is a hands-on, highly technical advisor who drives scale and accelerates customer outcomes through partner-delivered best practices and integration solutions leveraging the Render platform and APIs.
Working closely with our partners’ technical stakeholders, engineers, developers, along with internal teams at Render, you will identify industry technical trends, develop integration strategies with partners, and build prototypes to facilitate the delivery of innovative solutions and services with our partners.
Reporting to the VP of Product & Partnerships, you will work hand-in-hand with technology partners and joint customers around the world, and will be responsible for educating them on our joint “better-together” product integration solutions. This role requires a deep understanding of system integration technologies, the ability to develop solution prototypes, and a collaborative approach with partner and internal development teams to engage and positively influence key technology and architecture decisions.
Your mission @ Render:
Work directly with partners to accelerate their business outcomes and recommend best-practice integration architectures in line with long-term business needs
Drive technical solutions discussions with partners and joint customers, diving deep into the details to solve complex technical challenges and using your knowledge of Render’s technology and APIs to craft repeatable, scalable, flexible, and resilient integration architectures
Stand up and demonstrate joint solution prototypes with partners in Render and/or partner environments
Provide the architectural guidance and recommendations necessary to promote successful partner engagements validating POCs, SOWs, new solutions and architecture designs
Share the voice of partners and customers to influence the product roadmap of new features and services for the Render platform. Proactively work within the organization to influence the evolution of the platform.
Serve as a key technical member of the Render solutions architecture team by influencing decision makers across multiple domains to ensure customer success in building applications and services on the Render platform which align to long-term business goals
Act as a thought leader in the wider Render technology community, playing a key role in educating, sharing best practices, presenting at events, writing white papers, blogs, and running workshops
Who you are:
Technical bachelor’s degree and/or 5+ years experience within specific technology domain areas e.g. software development, API/middleware integration, cloud computing, or systems engineering
Experience working with or for system integrators and technology vendors leveraging APIs and middleware solutions to integrate applications
Experience with programming languages including Python, JavaScript, Go, .Net, Java, etc.
Understanding of spatial data concepts and experience with geospatial technologies such as GIS, CAD, remote sensing, or surveying
Track record of delivering proofs of concept, demonstrations, and/or scripts from scratch or leveraging reusable components, and articulating the architectural patterns and design principles behind the development
Experience architecting, migrating, or transforming customer requirements to develop solutions
Presentation and whiteboarding skills with a high degree of comfort speaking with internal and external executives, IT management, and developers
High ability to travel, including travel to partner sites and attendance at business reviews and meetings
- Familiarity and previous work experience in the telecommunications, utilities, construction, or GIS domains a plus

What We Do
An entirely new approach to fiber deployment. Utilizing innovative GIS, mobile and automation technology, Render’s platform and data management enable network operators, engineers and builders to deliver quality networks without the need for manual, paper-based construction packs. Real-time, geospatial data provides increased control and visibility, resulting in significant resource productivity across the delivery lifecycle. + Seamless transition from network design to work Our unique Blueprinting process takes a complex network design - in any format - and converts it directly into thousands of construction tasks, visible on a familiar map-based interface, and sequenced to optimize deployment time and cost. + Workflow digitisation, automation and optimisation With end-to-end digital data capture, your project becomes completely paperless, providing all stakeholders with a single common platform - connected in the cloud - to predict, plan and optimize progress. + Unequalled control and visibility By streamlining data between the field and the office, all stakeholders have access to near real-time data to improve decisions and dynamically schedule work to the most efficient contractor.
