Job Title: Technology Solution Architect

Location: Trivandrum — Hybrid

Company: Skillrank

About the Role

We're looking for a Technology Solution Architect who owns both design and execution — architecting solutions and then building them hands-on with the team, not handing off a design and stepping back.

Responsibilities

• Design end-to-end technology solutions, defining architecture, standards, and reusable frameworks
• Choose the right tech stack based on client needs, scalability, and maintainability
• Write production code as part of the delivery team — direct execution, not just design or review
• Own the full lifecycle from discovery to deployment, turning requirements into technical designs and delivery plans
• Work embedded with clients to understand real workflows firsthand, not design at a distance
• Guide development teams through code/design reviews, ensuring solutions meet security and governance standards
• Bring LLMs and applied AI/agentic capabilities into solution design where relevant, staying current on emerging tooling
• Work with client stakeholders to spot opportunities, and support pre-sales through solution design and proposals
• Drive continuous improvement and innovation across delivered solutions

Qualifications

• Hands-on technical depth to both architect and personally build solutions — not a design-only or review-only role
• Track record independently owning architecture decisions and delivering solutions with a team
• Strong grasp of software/system design principles
• Clear communicator across technical and business audiences
• Experience leading or technically guiding developers, with a leadership mindset and willingness to keep learning

Nice to Have

• Experience across multiple tech stacks/languages
• Exposure to AI/ML or automation
• Consulting or client-facing delivery background
• Cloud platform experience (AWS/Azure)
• Experience mentoring junior engineers

What We're Looking For

• Someone who can architect a solution and then write the code themselves — at this stage, we need builders, not just designers.
