Cohesity’s Professional Services team is looking for a hands-on architect who can design, document, and validate end-to-end deployment architectures that customers, partners, and internal teams can consistently implement. This role blends deep system design, customer engagement, field validation, and enablement. You will create scalable blueprints, improve deployment practices, and serve as the technical authority across architecture, integration, and system design.
HOW YOU’LL SPEND YOUR TIME HERE:
Customer Engagement & Collaboration
Deliver architecture and professional services to customers.
Build strategic relationships with key customers and Cohesity teams.
Partner with Product Solutions, engineering, SEs, tech marketing, and support to align product capabilities with customer requirements and ensure smooth knowledge transfer.
Engage directly with customers to understand their organizational needs and map Cohesity’s solutions to their objectives.
Architecture & Delivery
Design and validate deployment architectures, including sizing, performance, integrations, and migrations.
Develop reusable blueprints, runbooks, best practices, and templates.
Support deployment execution and ensure design fidelity across delivery teams and partners.
Conduct field validation and beta testing of new procedures.
Practice Development & Enablement
Convert deployment designs into training content and deliver hands-on training to customers, partners, and internal teams.
Create high-quality documentation and knowledge base articles.
Continuously refine deliverables as new products and features are released.
Process & Alignment
Maintain JIRA user stories to ensure alignment across product, engineering, and delivery teams.
System Design & Architecture
Deep System Design: Build end-to-end architectures across services, applications, data stores, and integrations, producing implementation-ready diagrams and sequence flows.
Design Principles: Apply scalability, separation of concerns, loose coupling, and resilience to create modular and evolvable systems.
API & Integration Architecture: Design REST APIs, JSON schemas, and integration patterns (sync/async, event-driven, retries).

Data Architecture: Design efficient SQL schemas and queries; understand NoSQL modeling and storage decisions.
Independent Technical Execution: Research new technologies independently, make clear trade-off decisions, and defend architectural choices.
Security Architecture: Apply security-by-design principles including access control, auditability, and data protection.
