Solutions Architect

What you'll be doing

Summary of Primary Responsibilities

• Own global VC/Rooms architecture & standards: Define room typologies, standard bills of material, supported device classes (including standardization toward MTR patterns), configuration baselines, and supportability guardrails.
• FY27 lifecycle refresh governance (budget-aligned): Architect the FY27 refresh plan using lifecycle/usage/site strategy and manage quarterly prioritization and rebalancing aligned to the $1.2M allocation and quarterly budget phasing.
• EoL/risk management for decommissioned devices: Drive remediation for restricted-state/EoL devices (e.g., impacted Cisco models listed as decommissioned/restricted) and ensure sequencing reduces user impact and operational risk.
• "Replace on failure" and non-planned remediation architecture: Define technical standards and governance for emergency replacements and quality enhancements due to unexpected site changes, room remodels, device/peripheral failures, or accessory requirements.
• Monitoring & proactive operations enablement: Expand monitoring approaches and define quality/performance telemetry standards to proactively address support gaps and reduce escalations.
• Network and SD‑WAN dependency management (room readiness): Architect readiness and validation patterns for network changes that impact VC rooms (e.g., SD‑WAN upgrades requiring on‑site testing of all units; dynamic implementation dates; site testing quantities and readiness discipline).
