Overview
Job Description
Cydcor is looking for an Associate Solutions Architect to partner with our business teams and engineering leaders, turning business problems into well-reasoned, cross-system solutions. You'll sit between the business and the technical teams: understanding what the business actually needs, designing the path across our enterprise systems to get there, and staying close enough to delivery to prototype, review, and unblock. You'll work directly witha hands-on Enterprise Architect, with a clear path to grow into broader architectural ownership over time.
This is not a deep-specialist role in a single technology, and it is not a detached, slides-only architecture role. We're looking for genuine breadth across systems and someone who stays hands-on in the code and the design, not only the conversation. The "Associate" title reflects a developmental, grow-into path with strong mentorship; it is not a cap on capability, and we welcome candidates at a range of experience levels who fit that shape.
What you'll do
- Partner with business stakeholders to understand their problems deeply, then design solutions across our enterprise systems (Salesforce, AWS, integration platforms, and our data estate)
- Generate multiple solution options, weigh the tradeoffs, and land a clear, defensible recommendation — and explain the "why" so technical and business audiences alike feel confident
- Assess the impact of proposed solutions on existing systems and processes before they're built
- Build proof-of-concepts, review designs and code, and provide hands-on guidance that helps senior developers move faster
- Work closely with development teams to carry architectural intent through to implementation, unblocking them wherever needed
- Use AI tools fluently to extend your reach across systems and accelerate prototyping, review, and analysis
- Grow, with mentorship, toward broader cross-enterprise solution design and architectural authority
Requirements
- Minimum Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field/equivalent work experience
- Strong technical foundation with hands-on experience in software development, including working knowledge of performance, security, and scalability principles
- Demonstrated ability to decompose complex business problems, evaluate tradeoffs, and communicate technical reasoning clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
- Cross-system thinking with the ability to reason across multiple systems including source of truth, integrations, data integrity, and failure modes
- Proven learning agility with a track record of independently building competence in new domains
- Active and informed use of AI tools in day-to-day work, with sound judgment on where they add value and where they do not
- Software development background with a clear trajectory toward solution design and architecture ownership; demonstrated reasoning and design judgment are weighted more heavily than years of experience or title
Benefits
- Competitive compensation with bonus potential
- Hybrid flexibility: Fridays remote
- Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance
- 401(k) with company match
- Generous PTO and paid holidays
- High ownership and visibility — your architectural decisions will shape how Cydcor uses AI for years to come
- A culture that values innovation, autonomy, and impact
