The Job

At Tango Card, we are passionate about helping businesses reward, motivate, and engage their employees and customers. Our mission is to make rewards and incentives easy to send and awesome to receive! We work with over 2,000 companies, from small startups to Fortune 500s, to provide digital gift cards, prepaid cards, and other rewards that inspire people to do great things.

As a Senior Solution Architect, you will lead the design and implementation of rewards, incentives, and payouts solutions built on our technical products for enterprise customers.

The Solution Architect’s chief responsibility is to provide technical guidance to prospective customers, build customer confidence during the sales cycle, and ultimately ensure that their implementations achieve maximum impact. While primarily focused on pre-sales opportunities, this role will also regularly engage existing customers and partners to ensure they are optimally leveraging our products and technology.

You will work closely with our sales team, onboarding team, product managers, and engineering teams to provide technical solutions and expertise. You will need a deep understanding of enterprise systems and be able to develop and present complex technical solutions. This role requires excellent communication skills, strong customer focus, and the ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.

Reports To: VP of Product

As Senior Solutions Architect at Tango, you will:

  • Collaborate with sales and product management teams to capture, document and refine customer requirements into standard solutions and best practices.
  • Lead technical discussions with customers (including on-site visits) to gather requirements, provide recommendations, and develop solutions that meet their business needs.
  • Build technical documentation, diagrams, demos and proofs of concept to support customer solutions, with a consultative approach to identifying customer needs and articulating Tango’s technical value proposition.
  • Play a key role in getting to proof of value for the customer. Provide ongoing support and technical expertise to customers throughout the customer lifecycle, with particular focus applied to program design, implementation and onboarding.
  • Create and present technical demonstrations to help prospective and existing customers (as well as our own sales team) understand how our products and technology support specific use cases.
  • Work with customers and business technology teams to create workflow automation flows, leveraging low-code no-code platforms like Zapier and Workato to help large customers automate their rewards and payouts programs.
  • Develop and maintain strong relationships with key customer stakeholders to drive customer success and adoption.

To be effective in our Senior Solutions Architect role, you must have the following skills and experience:

  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in enterprise software architecture, with a focus on designing and implementing solutions for large-scale systems
  • Minimum of 3 years of experience working with cloud-based technologies, e.g. AWS
  • Experience working directly with large-scale enterprise customers and/or supporting sales, onboarding and success teams
  • Experience with RESTful APIs, JSON, webhooks and other web technologies
  • Knowledge and experience in Agile software development methodologies
  • Effective communicator, with a natural ability to articulate complex technical details within a broader context of business value.
  • Naturally curious and an active listener - you get to the ‘why’ behind customer asks and ensure that you deeply understand what a customer is trying to achieve and what constraints they are working within.

Our ideal Senior Solutions Architect at Tango will have most of the following skills and experience:

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field
  • Experience working as a software engineer strongly preferred
  • 3+ years experience working as a Solution Architect or Sales Engineer for a SaaS or other B2B technology company
