As a Senior Solutions Architect at Apollo, you’ll be one of the leaders helping major product teams go from proof of concept to production with a federated graph. You’ll be joining a talented team that works at the forefront of designing GraphQL-based distributed architectures while establishing and communicating industry best practices.

This customer-facing role blends deep technical expertise in GraphQL and distributed architectures with hands-on implementation and consulting. You’ll harness your knowledge of APIs and software architecture to serve as a trusted technical advisor and advocate for our enterprise customers. As an agent of change within your organization, you bring fresh perspectives that inspire impactful transformations. You’ll come up with creative solutions that accelerate customer adoption of GraphQL and federated graphs that create tangible business value. You’ll also play an important role in shaping the future of the Apollo Graph Platform by communicating customer feedback to the Product and Engineering teams.

If collaborating with a tight-knit team on some of the most interesting and innovative projects in the GraphQL space today sounds like fun to you, then we’d love to have you join our team as a Senior Solutions Architect!

What you'll do

  • You'll work directly with engineering teams at a range of companies to educate them on the value of the Apollo Graph Platform and help them consolidate their existing GraphQL efforts to roll out a federated graph effectively.
  • You’ll be a key technical adviser for Apollo enterprise customers at key points in their GraphQL journey—from their first POC through production—and as they expand adoption across their company.
  • You’ll work with customers to understand their goals, roadmap, culture, technical architecture, and the right way to roll out Apollo in their company to accomplish their aims best.
  • You’ll devise innovative solutions to support and accelerate federated graph adoption within customers’ existing architectures, strategize new use cases to grow accounts and find and identify opportunities to maximize business value for Apollo’s customers.
  • You’ll contribute improvements to our documentation, OSS libraries, and platform from customer feedback or issues. Coordinate with tech leads internally to help us continue to build solutions to real-world issues.

Who you are

  • You're passionate about teams of all sizes succeeding at more than they thought possible.
  • You value empathy and love talking with users and customers to solve their problems, which has made you a highly trusted and valued partner.
  • You have a technical background in enterprise data delivery (APIs), and ideally GraphQL.
  • You can create code samples, review and advise other engineers, and develop trusted engineer-to-engineer relationships.
  • You have a track record of delivering timely results because you are organized and have follow-through.
  • You have a creative, “can do” attitude.
  • You find creative ways around obstacles and do not rest until the customer is satisfied.
  • You’re passionate about mentoring and collaborating with others.

Nice to have

  • Experience working with Apollo GraphOS.
  • Experience working with Apollo Federation.

At Apollo, we strive to provide competitive, market-informed compensation whilst ensuring consistency within the team in each country. We make hiring decisions based on your skills, experience, and our overall assessment of what we learned during the hiring process.
