Job Description:

We are seeking a highly strategic and technically grounded Data Platform Analytics Solutions Architect to help drive the next phase of growth for our X10K data platform business. This is a customer-facing architect role that leads with a data and workload-first perspective, focusing on how enterprise data is ingested, stored, processed, queried, governed, and consumed across modern analytics environments. The role will operate at the intersection of enterprise analytics, data architecture, modern data platforms, and infrastructure, helping customers modernize traditional data warehouse environments into more open, scalable, performant, and flexible data lake and data Lakehouse architectures. A major focus will be identifying and developing opportunities around analytics platforms such as Vertica, SingleStore, and Cloudera, while helping customers evaluate alternatives to traditional tightly coupled legacy Enterprise Data Warehouse platforms. The Architect will help customers understand where modern architectures that separate compute from data can improve scalability, economics, operational flexibility, and long-term data accessibility. You will partner closely with customers, sales teams, solution architects, ISVs, and Product Management to design high-impact analytics solutions, develop migration and modernization strategies, and build repeatable go-to-market motions around X10K. A key aspect of the role is the ability to identify and prioritize the right opportunities based on workload characteristics, customer readiness, technical fit, scale, economics, and business objectives. The successful candidate must be able to move beyond infrastructure discussions and engage customers at the data architecture, database, analytics, and application level. This is not a pure storage role. A strong understanding of storage and data infrastructure is important, but the architect must be able to position X10K as part of a broader enterprise data architecture and demonstrate how the data platform enables analytics modernization. Key Responsibilities Data-Centric Analytics Architecture • Lead architecture discussions starting with the customer's data, applications, and analytics requirements, including: • Data volumes, growth rates, velocity, and distribution • Structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data • Data ingestion and transformation requirements • Query patterns and analytical processing requirements • Data locality, gravity, movement, and duplication • Data retention and lifecycle requirements • Batch, streaming, and real-time analytics requirements • Concurrency and performance expectations

• Design modern analytics architectures by optimizing: • Data ingestion and ETL/ELT pipelines • Compute-to-data access patterns • Query performance and concurrency • Data placement and movement • Storage and compute scalability • Open data access and interoperability • Data lifecycle and retention • Performance, reliability, and cost efficiency

• Help customers evolve from infrastructure-centric architectures toward data-centric architectures where multiple analytics engines and applications can leverage common enterprise data assets. • Recommend design optimizations that improve performance, scalability, operational simplicity, resiliency, and economics.

Data Warehouse Modernization • Lead technical assessments of traditional enterprise data warehouse environments, particularly: • Identify workloads and data sets that are strong candidates for modernization. • Analyze existing environments based on capacity, performance, ETL/ELT, concurrency, licensing and make informed recommendations and solution alternatives. • Develop modernization strategies that transition customers from traditional data warehouses toward modern analytical databases and data Lakehouse architectures. • Help customers determine which workloads should be migrated, modernized, consolidated, or retained. • Partner with sales teams to create compelling competitive strategies for displacement opportunities.

Analytics Platform Architecture • Develop deep expertise in analytics and data platforms strategically aligned to X10K, including: • Enterprise analytics and Lakehouse platforms such as Vertica, SingleStore, and Cloudera • Search, observability, and machine-data analytics platforms such as Splunk and Elastic

• Articulate the architectural differences between traditional shared-nothing data warehouses, distributed databases, cloud-native databases, data lakes, and Lakehouse architectures. • Help customers select the appropriate architecture based on workload requirements rather than simply replacing one infrastructure platform with another. • Work with strategic software partners to develop validated solutions, best practices, reference architectures, sizing guidance, and repeatable deployment patterns.

Analytics Solution Architecture & Sizing • Scope and size enterprise analytics environments based on data volumes, size, ingest rate, retention, SLA, and other customer specific functional requirements. • Understand how analytical database behavior impacts infrastructure requir
