Solutions Architecture Advisor collaborating with stakeholders on projects such as cloud migrations and system implementations. Engage in technical leadership and support across multiple business sectors.
About the role
- Technological scout for Sherweb exploring modern software architectures and innovative technologies. Building proofs of concept and collaborating with architects to transition ideas toward productization.
Responsibilities
- Act as Sherweb’s dedicated technological scout, continuously evaluating emerging software technologies, platforms, and architectural patterns; both inside and outside Sherweb’s current ecosystem
- Build proofs of concept (PoCs) and experimental prototypes to validate ideas, de-risk new approaches, and explore innovative concepts without immediate production constraints
- Explore new domains even when there is no immediate product plan, purely to understand the underlying concepts and assess long-term relevance (e.g., experimenting with projects like OpenClaw even if they may never be adopted internally)
- Serve as a bridge between exploration and execution: once a technology shows potential, collaborate with and involve other Sherweb architects to help bring the idea to life within Sherweb’s context
- Perform continuous technological watch on modern software architecture, cloud platforms, AI agents, orchestration systems, MCP servers, developer tooling, and emerging programming models
- Experiment hands-on with new technologies by: Writing exploratory code, Building isolated prototypes, Creating proof-of-concept architectures
- Design and document experimental solution architectures to clearly explain: What problem the technology solves, How it works, Where it could (or could not) fit within Sherweb’s ecosystem
- Perform early feasibility studies, favoring fast iteration, rapid learning, and “fail fast” approaches when appropriate
- Prepare lightweight technical briefings and architecture notes to share findings with Sherweb architects and leadership
- Work largely independently while maintaining strong alignment with the VP, Platform & Engineering
- When appropriate, collaborate with other architects to transition validated ideas toward broader adoption or productization
Requirements
- University degree in Computer Science (or equivalent experience)
- 10+ years of hands-on technical experience in software development and/or solution architecture
- Strong experience designing and experimenting with modern software architectures, including cloud-native and distributed systems
- Demonstrated experience evaluating, testing, and experimenting with emerging technologies, not just consuming mature ones
- Excellent coding ability and comfort building prototypes alone from scratch
- Proficiency in both spoken and written English; French proficiency is considered an asset.
