Senior Solution Architect
About The Position
Credera is a global consulting firm combining transformational consulting, industry knowledge, and AI and technology expertise to deliver customer experiences and growth. The Senior Solution Architect leads project-based teams in a client-facing consulting role, serving as the primary architect and technical lead.

The architect owns end-state architecture and transformation design for complex enterprise environments. This includes driving technical decisions across cloud, infrastructure, security, identity, applications, and productivity platforms; developing dependency maps; identifying transformation pathways; and establishing architectural patterns for large-scale organizational change. The position works with domain leads and subject matter experts to align architectural design, sequencing, and implementation planning with business objectives and platform strategy. The position follows a hybrid working model: employees may work remotely two days per week and are expected to work in person three days per week. Travel is generally limited, although some projects may involve up to 80% travel for a period; the stated annual average is typically 10%–30%. Applicants must be authorized to work in the U.S. without current or future employment-based visa sponsorship.
