What is a solution architect?

Solution Architects are professionals who design and oversee the implementation of complex software or technology solutions within an organization. They bridge the gap between business needs and technical requirements by creating high-level architectural designs and ensuring that the final product meets both functional and non-functional requirements. Solution Architects work closely with stakeholders, developers, and project managers to guide the project from conception to completion, ensuring scalability, security, and efficiency.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a solution architect?

To thrive as a Solutions Architect, you need deep expertise in systems design, software development, and IT architecture, often supported by a degree in computer science or a related field. Familiarity with cloud platforms (such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud), architecture frameworks, and relevant certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect) is typically required. Strong problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management skills are essential for translating business needs into technical solutions. These skills ensure effective design, implementation, and alignment of technology solutions with organizational goals.

How does a solution architect typically collaborate with other teams during a project lifecycle?

Solution Architects work closely with cross-functional teams, including developers, project managers, and business stakeholders, to ensure that technical solutions align with business objectives. Throughout the project lifecycle, they facilitate communication between technical and non-technical teams, translate business requirements into technical specifications, and guide the architectural direction. Frequent collaboration ensures that any challenges are addressed proactively and that the final solution is scalable and maintainable. This role requires excellent interpersonal skills and adaptability to work effectively with diverse teams.

Guidehouse is seeking a Databricks Solution Architect to join our AI and Data team to support client projects in the utility industry involving Databricks solution design, platform administration, data governance, and secure Databricks solution implementation. This role focuses on architecting and administering enterprise Databricks environments across workspaces, Unity Catalog, compute, security, automation, and operational standards. The architect will support data modernization initiatives for regulated utilities, including solutions that integrate customer, account, premise, property, meter, and energy-use data across utility and enterprise platforms. The role requires hands-on Databricks platform experience, strong cloud and data architecture fundamentals, and the ability to collaborate with client stakeholders, security teams, data engineers, and delivery teams to build scalable, governed, and production-ready solutions.
What You Will Do:
  • Partner with utility business, IT, data, and regulatory stakeholders to design governed data architectures that integrate customer, account, premise, service-address, meter, property, and energy-usage data across operational systems, enterprise data platforms, APIs, and external reporting platforms.
  • Lead the design and implementation of Databricks solution architectures that support data engineering, analytics, AI/ML, and governed data product delivery.
  • Administer Databricks workspaces, account-level settings, workspace configurations, users, groups, service principals, permissions, secrets, jobs, and platform objects.
  • Design and manage Unity Catalog structures, including metastores, catalogs, schemas, external locations, storage credentials, access controls, lineage, and metadata standards.
  • Define compute, cluster policy, SQL warehouse, job orchestration, runtime, and workload management patterns that balance performance, cost, security, and delivery needs.
  • Translate business, technical, security, and governance requirements into Databricks-native architecture patterns, implementation plans, technical architecture and design documentation, and platform standards.
  • Partner with cloud, cybersecurity, identity management, networking, and DevOps teams to support secure platform integration across Azure, AWS, or GCP environments.
  • Develop reusable architecture guidance, reference implementations, deployment patterns, and operational playbooks for Databricks platform teams and delivery teams.
  • Troubleshoot platform issues related to permissions, compute performance, job execution, storage access, networking, workspace configuration, and production operations.
  • Advise clients on platform governance, cost management, auditability, release management, environment strategy, separation of duties, regulatory traceability, and data-quality controls for enterprise Databricks adoption.
  • Support delivery teams through technical leadership, architecture reviews, code and configuration reviews, documentation, and stakeholder communication.

What You Will Need:
  • Bachelor's degree from an accredited college/university.
  • 7+ years of relevant experience in data architecture, cloud data platforms, data engineering, platform engineering, or technical solution delivery.
  • 3+ years Databricks hands-on experience designing, implementing, or administering Databricks environments (architecting), including workspaces, jobs, clusters, SQL warehouses, notebooks, repos, and platform configurations.
  • Ability to quickly develop fluency in utility business processes, data models, source systems, regulatory requirements, and operational terminology, and translate that context into practical platform and solution architecture
  • Strong experience with SQL, Python, and Spark-based development for data engineering, automation, and platform operations.
  • Strong experience with Unity Catalog, including access controls, catalogs, schemas, external locations, storage credentials, lineage, and governed data organization.
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP, including identity, networking, storage, security, and deployment considerations for cloud-native data platforms.
  • Experience developing architecture artifacts, technical designs, platform standards, implementation roadmaps, and operational documentation for technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Ability to lead technical discussions with clients, evaluate tradeoffs, communicate architecture decisions, and work effectively in consulting or project-based delivery environments.
  • Familiarity with data governance, DevOps, CI/CD, infrastructure automation, monitoring, cost management, and secure software delivery practices.
  • Travel: will need to be onsite in NY at least one day every other week

What Would Be Nice To Have:
  • Active Databricks certification, such as Databricks Certified Data Engineer, Machine Learning Engineer, GenAI Engineer, or related professional certification.
  • Experience architecting and administering advanced AI/ML and application capabilities within Databricks (MLflow, AI Gateway, Genie One, Databricks Apps).
  • Experience developing Databricks Apps or similar data-driven applications, including React-based front ends, API architecture, secure integration patterns with Delta Tables and Unity Catalog, and agentic workflow patterns that incorporate Databricks Agents or other AI-enabled services.
  • Experience supporting electric or gas utilities, including working with customer information, account and premise, AMI, meter data management, billing, energy usage, building or property, or regulatory reporting data.
  • Experience with Terraform, Databricks Asset Bundles, Git-based deployment patterns, automated testing, release management, or CI/CD pipelines for Databricks workloads.
  • Experience integrating Databricks with enterprise identity providers, data catalogs, orchestration tools, observability platforms, BI tools, and cloud-native security services.
  • Experience advising stakeholders on enterprise platform operating models, governance processes, cost controls, and production support practices.
