About The Job You're Considering
Capgemini is seeking a Cloud Infrastructure Services (CIS) Senior Solutions Architect – ESM Automation & Platforms to join a high-impact, solution-selling and deal-capture organization. The role shapes integrated digital workplace solutions that improve employee journeys, service experiences, and measurable business outcomes.
The Sr. Solutions Architect – ESM Automation & Platforms plays a pivotal role at the intersection of enterprise service management, automation, observability, and managed infrastructure transformation. This role is responsible for shaping solution strategy across pursuits, solution design, transition, and early delivery, translating complex business and operational requirements into scalable, supportable, and outcome-oriented architectures. The position requires broad cross-domain understanding of infrastructure services, service management platforms, automation frameworks, integrations, and operational intelligence, along with the ability to communicate credibly with engineering teams, sales stakeholders, delivery teams, and executive clients.
This is a high-impact role suited for someone who is energized by ambiguity, transformation, and the challenge of helping define the next generation of infrastructure services. The successful candidate will help move the organization from people-centric delivery toward platform-centric, automation-first, and increasingly agentic service models; codify patterns that reduce dependence on tribal knowledge; and ensure that what is sold is technically credible, commercially compelling, and operationally achievable.
Your Role
- Lead solution architecture for ESM, automation, observability, and platform-based managed services opportunities across the presales, design, transition, and stabilization lifecycle.
- Translate client business objectives, service requirements, and non-functional needs into scalable tool, platform, and integration architectures.
- Develop solution approaches spanning ITSM/ESM, workflow automation, event-driven remediation, observability, AIOps, analytics, and digital worker capabilities.
- Serve as a key bridge between engineering, architecture, sales, and delivery teams to align platform capabilities, roadmap realities, commercial commitments, and implementation plans.
- Contribute to RFP responses, solution collateral, presentations, and client discussions with both technical rigor and strong value articulation
- Define and govern integrations across enterprise tools using APIs, web services, workflow orchestration, data exchange patterns, and secure automation mechanisms.
- Support sales-to-delivery handoff by ensuring solution assumptions, architecture decisions, dependencies, risks, and operational support requirements are clearly documented and actionable.
- Create reusable reference architectures, patterns, accelerators, playbooks, and design standards that improve consistency, speed, and quality of future solutions.
- Guide teams in embedding observability, telemetry, event correlation, automation, and operational intelligence into managed service designs.
- Identify capability gaps, integration risks, and design tradeoffs early, and provide pragmatic recommendations that balance strategic ambition with delivery feasibility.
- Mentor other architects and solutioning resources by sharing cross-platform knowledge and helping broaden the team’s architecture, integration, and platform engineering maturity.
- Contribute to the evolution of platform-first and agentic service models by helping define repeatable methods for outcome-based, automation-led infrastructure services.
Your Skills And Experience
Required Skills
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including experience supporting proposals, client presentations, workshops, and executive discussions.
- Deep experience with enterprise service management / ITSM / ESM platforms, including workflow, incident, problem, change, service request, CMDB, and service operations processes.
- Strong solution architecture capability across automation, observability, monitoring, and operational intelligence domains.
- Broad understanding of infrastructure services, including cloud, servers, virtualization, networks, datacenter environments, and their operational dependencies.
- Comfortable with APIs, integrations, web services, event-driven patterns, and data exchange standards such as REST, JSON, and SOAP/XML.
- Strong automation mindset, including workflow automation, orchestration, runbook automation, and infrastructure/application automation concepts.
- Working knowledge of observability concepts including metrics, logs, traces, events, service dependency mapping, and proactive operational response.
- Ability to design technically credible solutions while also articulating value, tradeoffs, risks, and business outcomes to non-technical stakeholders.
- Practical understanding of security, authentication, certificates, and secure integration practices in enterprise environments.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work across ambiguity and develop structured, scalable approaches.
- ITIL knowledge and practical familiarity with modern service management and operations models. ITIL certification is relevant and beneficial.

- Experience with AIOps, event correlation, anomaly detection, predictive operations, and intelligent automation use cases.
- Familiarity with platform engineering, everything-as-code, DevOps tooling, and distributed systems concepts as applied to infrastructure services.

- Experience building reusable solution assets such as reference architectures, white papers, business cases, or transformation playbooks.
- Background supporting managed services transitions, service transformation programs, or operational redesign initiatives.
- Experience mentoring other architects, guiding multidisciplinary teams, or helping uplift team-wide architecture and integration capability.
- Familiarity with commercial solutioning, deal shaping, effort estimation, and risk identification for complex managed services engagements.

Senior Level Senior Solutions Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level senior solutions engineer job?
Employers at this level look for candidates who have led end-to-end technical sales cycles, owned complex proof-of-concept engagements, and can credibly advise enterprise architects. Demonstrating that you've influenced product direction based on customer feedback, mentored junior engineers, and closed deals requiring deep technical credibility gives you a clear edge over candidates who can only execute a defined playbook.
Which companies hire senior level senior solutions engineers?
Companies hiring senior level senior solutions engineers right now include Fastly, Databricks, and NVIDIA, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level is driven primarily by enterprise software vendors, cloud infrastructure providers, and technology consulting firms that depend on senior engineers to manage complex customer relationships and pre-sales architecture work.
Are there remote senior level senior solutions engineer jobs?
Yes, remote and hybrid availability is strong at this level. About 52% of senior level senior solutions engineer openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how employers treat senior contributors who travel frequently for key accounts and do not need daily on-site supervision to deliver results.
What makes a senior solutions engineer role senior level?
Senior level solutions engineer roles are defined by scope and ownership rather than task execution. You are expected to lead discovery calls independently, design reference architectures for strategic accounts, represent the technical voice in executive-level conversations, and mentor associate and mid-level engineers on the team. The distinction from mid-level is accountability for outcomes, not just activities.
Which industries hire the most senior level senior solutions engineers?
Senior level senior solutions engineer roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Consulting & Professional Services, and Insurance, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because their enterprise customers require technically authoritative pre-sales partners who can evaluate architecture fit and navigate complex procurement cycles alongside sales leadership.
