Lead Solution Architect- Infrastructure

World Wide Technology Healthcare Solutions • Jenks, OK

6h • $140,000 - $175,000 • Remote

About The Position

As a Services Solution Architect specializing in Infrastructure and Data Center
solutions within the Solutions group, you will develop enterprise data center
services across server and compute platforms, enterprise storage systems,
network infrastructure, virtualization technologies, and hybrid cloud
integration. You will translate customer requirements into structured,
delivery-ready data center solutions that encompass modern compute, storage, and
networking capabilities.

You will independently navigate contemporary data center architectures while
developing competitive business cases, cost estimates, and risk-adjusted pricing
strategies. In this role, you will lead technical discovery sessions to identify
business drivers, technical requirements, existing environment constraints, and
operational dependencies, translating these findings into detailed scopes and
commercially sound engagement models.

This role requires deep data center expertise and strong professional services
discipline. As a senior individual contributor, you will serve as the deal
“quarterback,” owning solution development from discovery through final approval
prior to submission. You will align architects, sales teams, and delivery
stakeholders to a unified, executable solution, ensuring technical accuracy,
scope clarity, and commercial viability.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s Degree required, Master’s degree preferred
• A minimum of 10 years' progressive experience in a related field required
• 10+ years of experience in customer engagement, solution design, or technology delivery, with 3 - 5 years of leadership experience
• Ability to communicate and collaborate with senior client leaders, as well as internal WWT team members, driving towards a strategic solution
• Demonstrated ability to drive innovation and conceive creative solutions to intricate or ambiguous problems within collaborative team settings
• Technical mastery of one or more key domains
• Team leadership skills, ability to orchestrate teams in developing multiple solutions

Responsibilities

• Enterprise Data Center Solutions: Lead solution opportunities by defining clear scope, validating requirements, and developing practical, implementable data center solutions across server compute platforms, enterprise storage systems, network architecture, and virtualization & cloud integration (e.g., VMware, Microsoft Hyper-V, Azure Stack). Leverage technologies from leading vendors to design comprehensive, scalable data center architectures that meet enterprise requirements.
• Opportunity Alignment & Discovery: Work closely with account teams to qualify opportunities, lead structured discovery sessions, validate scope boundaries, and ensure solutions align with customer technical and operational needs in the data center domain.
• Financial Modeling & Estimation: Develop cost estimates that factor in delivery complexity, sequencing, and execution risk. Independently build detailed, activity-based Level of Effort (LoE) models using task-level work breakdown structures (WBS), resource alignment, and phased timelines aligned to a centralized delivery model, while accounting for multi-vendor integration and licensing considerations.
• Proposal & SOW Development: Craft clear, defensible proposals aligned to defined scope and desired outcomes. Translate approved data center solution scope and LoE into formal Statements of Work (SOW), including deliverables, milestones, assumptions, exclusions, acceptance criteria, and a comprehensive governance structure. As part of this consulting with Legal and Compliance teams will be necessary.
• Risk & Deal Governance: Serve as the final solution authority prior to submission, ensuring scope clarity, delivery feasibility, and margin protection. Assess integration complexity (including multi-vendor hardware/software components), customer readiness, solution scale, and third-party dependencies. Incorporate mitigation strategies and contingency plans into pricing models and contractual language to address identified risks.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Build strong working relationships across sales, delivery, and services teams to ensure alignment and execution readiness within a centralized delivery model. Facilitate communication between engineering, project management, and service delivery teams to guarantee the proposed data center solution is fully vetted and executable.
• Performance Expectations: Success in this role is measured by solution quality, estimation accuracy, defensibility of scope, margin performance, and the ability to enable sales teams to successfully close data center services engagements. Consistently deliver high-quality solutions that meet client needs while maintaining profitability and supporting sales in winning new business.
