Solutions Engineer

• Own technical architecture across the services portfolio, from pre-contract scoping through delivery
• Lead solution design for OpenFn-centered interoperability engagements: integration strategy, data flow architecture, API design patterns, system topology, and deployment approach
• Consult directly with government and NGO technical counterparts on OpenFn solution design and associated enterprise architecture strategy
• Evaluate proposed use cases to determine whether they are a strong fit for the OpenFn platform; advise on constraints and alternative designs
• Set and uphold the technical quality bar across the services portfolio, from solution design through to delivery and deployment
• Develop internal standards and guidelines for what good looks like on an OpenFn implementation, and build the review processes that help the whole team work to that standard
• Mentor engineers and consultants, helping them develop both JavaScript competence and systems-level integration thinking
• Become the organization's deepest practitioner of OpenFn as a solutions tool, understanding what the platform can and cannot do at scale and under real conditions
• Build and own a solutions architecture library: a structured knowledge base cataloging how OpenFn maps to different integration patterns, with honest documentation of platform fit and known limits
• Serve as the bridge between services and product: translate field learnings and performance constraints into structured product feedback, and bring roadmap awareness back into implementation planning and sales scoping
• Define and oversee deployment strategies for government clients hosting OpenFn on local infrastructure, including containerized, cloud, and hybrid environments
