We’re looking for passionate and talented individuals to join our dynamic team. If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you!
Purpose of the Role

The Solutions Architect is the senior technical authority within the Babble Professional Services team and a hands-on technical delivery resource. The core focus of the role is the technical implementation, configuration and deployment of customer solutions across Modern Workplace, Cyber Security, Network and Backup/DR domains. Operating as a Level 3 Engineer, the role leads and performs hands-on deployment on complex, high-risk and multi-domain projects and sets the technical standard for how solutions are built and configured across the team.

The role also owns the design phase of customer engagements, producing High-Level Designs, Low-Level Designs and Statements of Work that translate requirements into buildable, production-ready solutions. Design and deployment are treated as a single continuum: the Solutions Architect is accountable for the technical quality of the solution from design through to a working, tested and handed-over deployment, and stays hands-on throughout.

- Conduct technical design reviews with customers to validate requirements, confirm design assumptions, identify risks, and secure sign-off on the proposed solution architecture before delivery commences.

- Define and maintain technical standards, deployment checklists, configuration baselines, and design templates used across the Professional Services team, ensuring consistency and quality across all project deliveries.

- Validate UAT results and technical acceptance for projects where the Solutions Architect has produced the design, confirming that the delivered solution meets the specifications defined in the HLD/LLD and Statement of Work.
