About Searce :
Searce is an AI outcome engineering company and a modern technology consultancy that helps enterprises futurify their business with AI, cloud and data.
Founded in 2004, we are 1,300+ Searcians across 12 countries, with deep business process expertise, a Google Cloud Global MSP status and compliance credentials including PCI DSS and ISO 27001.
We solve with our proprietary evlos methodology: no bureaucratic fluff, working prototypes fast, and production scale that holds.
About ATRE :
ATRE is Searce's AI Trust & Resilience Engineering practice: the managed-service team that keeps customers' cloud and AI estates secure, reliable and resilient 24x7.
We are building it AI-first.
Every engineer is expected to use AI tools and AIOps to raise efficiency, cut toil and shorten recovery time.
Role Overview :
As a Solutions Architect you design how Searce delivers secure, resilient and AI-enabled operations for customers.
You stay hands-on in delivery, set the technical direction for the ATRE team, and from time to time support presales with solutioning, customer workshops and proposals.
What You'll Do :
- Architecture ownership : Design secure, reliable multi-cloud and Kubernetes architectures, landing zones and DR patterns for managed-service customers.
- Hands-on delivery : Stay close to implementation, review designs and unblock the delivery team on hard problems.
- AI and AIOps design : Define how AI tools and AIOps platforms are used to improve SRE efficiency, covering triage, RCA, automation and observability.
- Security by design : Embed Zero Trust, IAM, secrets, network and compliance controls into customer solutions.
- Presales support : When required, join customer discussions, shape solutions and contribute to proposals and estimates.
- Standards : Create reference architectures, runbooks and best practices that the squads reuse.
- Advisory : Act as a trusted technical advisor to customers and internal leaders.
- Mentoring : Raise the technical depth of engineers and leads.
What You Bring :
- Delivery experience : Hands-on experience delivering and operating cloud, SRE or security solutions in production, not only designing them.
- Architecture depth : Strong architecture skills across at least one hyperscaler, with Kubernetes, IaC and cloud security.
- Communication : Able to explain architecture to customer and executive audiences.
- Presales exposure : Experience supporting solutioning or proposals is valued; it is an occasional part of the role.
- AI-led efficiency : Practical experience using AI tools to improve SRE efficiency (AI-assisted runbooks, incident triage, RCA, automation) and/or AIOps platforms (e.g., BigPanda, Moogsoft, Dynatrace, Datadog), with measurable results such as lower MTTR, less toil or reduced alert noise.
- Work mode : Comfortable working from the office.
Good To Have :
- Professional-level architect certifications (Google, AWS, Azure).
- Experience across more than one hyperscaler.
- Experience designing AI/LLM workload security and governance.
- Compliance exposure (ISO 27001, PCI DSS, SOC 2).
Why Searce :
- Solver mindset : We hire solvers, not task-takers.
- You will be trusted to own problems end to end.
- Not a CAVEr, say no to HiPPO: We are not Citizens Against Virtually Everything, and the best idea wins over the highest-paid person's opinion.
- AI-native practice : ATRE is built around AI tools and AIOps from day one, so you build the future of managed services rather than inherit the past.
- Learning and growth : Partner-led certifications and exposure to Google Cloud, AWS, Databricks and Anthropic Claude ecosystems.
- Culture : HAPPIER values (humble, adaptable, positive, passionate, innovative, excellence, responsible).
