Expert Solution Architect, AI & Enterprise (all genders)

About the Role You'll own the path from a corporate client's business problem to a target architecture the CIO signs and the CFO funds. Not one platform, the whole picture: CRM, data, integrations, custom software, and the agentic AI layer on top. You'll lead discovery with enterprise clients, structure what they actually need, design the solution, defend it in the steering committee, and hand delivery a scope that holds. This is an Expert seat: the architecture benchmark of our Consulting Practice, no people management.

Agentic means software agents that act on goals instead of waiting for clicks; for an enterprise, that translates into less manual work and more margin. As a Diamond HubSpot Partner we work with enterprise B2B clients across the DACH market, building the agent layer on top of HubSpot and the systems around it, then operating it with them.
