## Description

At Braze, we're a customer engagement platform that helps brands deliver great customer experiences. We're seeking a Senior Lead Field Architect to join our Field Architecture team, which focuses on high-stakes opportunities and works directly with technical leadership to design and build next-generation solutions.

The Senior Lead Field Architect works as an overlay to our Braze account teams, joining deals as an added technical leader, present in the room and speaking with authority on all things enterprise architecture and integration. You'll lead high-level 'Future State' architecture workshops, map how Braze interacts with the broader enterprise stack, navigate complex technical committees, identify potential technical blockers, design creative workarounds, and develop best-practice blueprints for common enterprise scenarios.

Responsibilities:

- Lead high-level 'Future State' architecture workshops, mapping how Braze interacts with the broader enterprise stack (e.g., Snowflake, Databricks, S3 and other blob storage, Salesforce, Adobe)

- Navigate complex technical committees and address concerns from Architecture, Engineering, Information Security, Data Governance, and Systems Integration teams

- Identify potential technical blockers early in the sales cycle and design creative, scalable workarounds that do not compromise platform stability

- Design and lead proof-of-value engagements that give prospects the evidence they need to make a confident technical selection

- Set realistic expectations, anticipating delivery constraints and surfacing risks before close, so what we propose is what customers successfully run in production

- Develop best-practice blueprints for common enterprise scenarios (e.g., multi-instance global deployments) to be reused across the Solutions organization

- Speak about building with Braze and strong integration architecture approaches at conferences and industry events

Requirements:

- 7+ years in customer-facing technical roles (Solutions Architecture, Solutions Consulting, Sales Engineering, Enterprise Architecture, technical consulting) at B2B SaaS or data platform companies

- Marketing Technology Background: Experience with email, mobile, database, and lifecycle or loyalty marketing, and fluency in the realities that come with them

- Advanced System Design: Expertise in designing composable solutions and understanding the trade-offs between various integration methods

- Data Strategy & Usage Patterns: Deep knowledge of how data is ingested, accessed, cleansed, and moved across an enterprise

- Change Management Consulting: The ability to advise prospects on the organizational changes required to support a modern engagement platform

- Market & Ecosystem Acumen: Deep familiarity with the architecture and design patterns of the primary platforms in the market

Benefits:

- Competitive compensation that may include equity

- Retirement and Employee Stock Purchase Plans

- Flexible paid time off

- Comprehensive benefit plans covering medical, dental, vision, life, and disability

- Family services that include fertility benefits and equal paid parental leave

- Professional development supported by formal career pathing, learning platforms, and a yearly learning stipend

- A curated in-office employee experience, designed to foster community, team connections, and innovation
