Solutions Architect Jobs

Solutions architects design system architectures, evaluate technology trade-offs, create technical proposals, guide engineering teams on implementation, and ensure solutions meet scalability, security, and cost requirements.

Solutions architect salaries range from $130k for mid-level to $220k+ for senior architects. Cloud provider solutions architects (AWS, Azure, GCP) earn among the highest.

Typically 5–10+ years of engineering experience, deep knowledge of at least one cloud platform, architecture patterns (microservices, event-driven), and strong communication skills. AWS or Azure SA certification is often expected.
