We hire successful builders with founder-like energy who want real impact, accelerated learning, and true ownership. You bring strong role-related expertise and sharp thinking, and you’re motivated by our mission and operating principles. You move fast with good judgment, dig deep with curiosity, and make decisions from first principles, balancing speed and rigor.

The Growth and Revenue Systems team is a cross-functional team in the Growth department comprising engineers, marketers, and revenue operations. We are responsible for maintaining and improving our sales and marketing tooling such as our CRM and our marketing automation platform. We also spearhead innovation in tooling using AI, such as developing in-house AI agents to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of sales and marketing teams.

In this role, you will be leading technical strategy as the Senior Solution Architect. You will report to the Director of Growth and Revenue Systems and work closely with the Director of Growth Engineering to design our target architecture. Your focus will be on designing scalable systems while other teams handle the hands-on build and implementation phases.

• Experience: At least 7 years’ experience in software engineering, systems engineering, or solution architecture roles.
