Lead. Architect. Deliver. Influence. Our US client portfolio is evolving rapidly, and not just in scale, but in complexity and expectation. We partner with enterprise retailers and high-growth mid-market organisations who rely on us to design and deliver robust, scalable, and insight-led data platforms. Increasingly, these platforms sit at the heart of AI-enabled decision-making, and our clients expect senior technical leaders who can both engineer and influence. To support this growth, we’re hiring a Chicago based Lead Solutions Engineer. This is a hybrid role that blends hands-on engineering, solution architecture, and senior stakeholder engagement. You’ll operate as a trusted technical partner to our clients — shaping solutions, guiding delivery, and ensuring our platform evolves to meet the demands of modern, AI-driven data ecosystems.
