Job Description

Octagon Talent Solutions is a full-service technology recruitment and staffing company based in South Florida. We humanize technical recruitment by identifying candidates' long-term career goals and assessing cultural fit when presenting opportunities. Our focus on long-term relationships helps ensure placements that last.


Job Overview:


Octagon Talent Solutions is in search of a Solutions Architect to join a small, senior, high-ownership team and help drive customer-facing technical work end-to-end, from discovery to solution design, API integration, and implementation. This is a hands-on individual contributor role focused on technical depth, clear communication, and ownership in a fast-paced environment.


Responsibilities


  • Lead customer discovery calls, understand requirements, and translate them into clear technical solutions
  • Deliver product/technical demos and guide prospects through implementation approach and integration details
  • Design solutions across API-heavy workflows (including proof-of-concept work) and support customer onboarding
  • Partner cross-functionally with product and engineering to shape solutions and communicate constraints/tradeoffs
  • Take full ownership of customer-facing technical workstreams — from inception through deployment
  • Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical and technical stakeholders


Requirements


  • Strong experience in customer-facing technical roles (solutions architecture, technical pre-sales, implementation engineering, or similar)
  • Experience with API integration, solution design, and end-to-end technical ownership
  • Proficiency in Python, JavaScript, or TypeScript (no single required language)
  • Ability to operate in a startup / resource-constrained, high-ownership environment
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • US citizenship required (no visa sponsorship)


Nice to have


  • Background in B2B SaaS companies with API-heavy products (strongly preferred)
  • Experience with data analytics/intelligence platforms or integration-heavy work
  • Familiarity working with regulated/public sector environments
  • AI fluency / comfort using AI tools to accelerate workflows


Not a fit for this role


  • Support-only or customer success profiles without technical implementation experience
  • Primarily post-sales backgrounds (pre-sales is higher priority)
  • Pure enterprise architects without hands-on customer-facing ownership
  • Internal IT/infrastructure-only ownership


Additional details


  • Remote: US only
  • Citizenship requirement: US citizen (required due to government client requirements; no visa sponsorship)
