Presales Solution Architect – Data & AI

Presales Solution Architect – Data & AI

We're looking for a Presales Solution Architect – Data & AI to join our growing cloud and AI practice at Lauren Group. You'll lead technical presales conversations across data, AI/ML, and agentic AI use cases — primarily on AWS, with good exposure to platforms like Databricks and Azure — helping customers move from a business problem to a compelling, technically sound solution.

What you'll do

• Lead discovery conversations with customers and translate their data/AI challenges into solution architectures.
• Design and present end-to-end data and AI solutions, from proposals and architecture diagrams to RFP/RFI responses.
• Scope and drive POCs to validate fit and move deals forward.
• Work closely with sales, delivery, and partner teams (AWS, and others) on joint pursuits.
• Help build out reusable assets, templates, and practice capability over time.

Who you are

• 3–6 years in cloud, data, or AI/ML roles, with some experience in a presales or customer-facing capacity.
• Solid functional understanding of data and AI concepts — comfortable enough to have an independent point of view, not looking to be taught the basics.
• Strong communicator who can flex between technical and business audiences.
• A curious, learner's mindset — you ask good questions and aren't afraid to challenge the obvious answer.
• High ownership — you drive things to closure rather than waiting to be told.

Good to have

• AWS is preferred; familiarity with Anthropic, OpenAI, Databricks, or Azure is a plus.
• Relevant certifications (AWS, Databricks, or similar).

Why join us

You'll work on real, meaningful customer problems — not just decks — with access to a strong partner ecosystem and a team that values curiosity and ownership as much as technical depth
