At infra360, presales is a core business function, not sales support. This role directly impacts deal quality, delivery success, and long-term customer trust.

Role Overview

We are looking for a strong Presales / Solutions Architect who can bridge business requirements, technical architecture, and commercial clarity.

You will work closely with the Founder, Head of Growth / Customer Success, and Delivery Leads to design the right solutions, scope engagements accurately, and ensure infra360 wins the right deals — not just more deals.

This role has high ownership and visibility and acts as a gatekeeper for delivery quality.

Key Responsibilities

• Support AWS Partner Network (APN) requirements (GCP & Azure are big plus as well), including architecture alignment and assessment inputs
• Participate in cloud migration and modernization programs by owning technical eligibility and assessments
• Collaborate with the Head of Growth on deal registration, co-sell motions, and funding opportunities
• Client Discovery & Presales Ownership
• Lead technical discovery calls and workshops with CTOs, engineering leaders, and platform teams
• Understand customer pain points across scale, reliability, security, and cost
• Translate business context into clear technical and service-level solutions
• Solution Architecture & Design
• Design cloud and DevOps architectures primarily on AWS (Azure/GCP exposure is a plus)
• Define modernization approaches, including containers, serverless, CI/CD, observability, and SRE practices
• Create target-state architectures, diagrams in draw.io, migration strategies, and phased execution roadmaps
• Proposals, RFPs & SOWs

• Own technical solutioning for:
• Proposals and solution decks
• RFPs / RFIs
• Statements of Work (SOWs)
• Perform high-level effort estimation, scope definition, and risk identification
• Ensure solutions are delivery-feasible, margin-positive, and outcome-driven
• Cloud Economics & Assessments
• Conduct cloud cost assessments, optimization reviews, and TCO / ROI analysis
• Support cloud migration and modernization assessments (e.g., AWS MAP)
• Help customers understand cost vs performance vs reliability trade-offs
• Presales → Delivery Handover
• Ensure smooth handover from presales to delivery teams
• Clearly document assumptions, scope boundaries, risks, and success criteria
• Support early delivery phases to ensure alignment and avoid scope drift
• Internal Enablement
• Create reusable presales assets (architecture templates, pitch decks, estimation frameworks)
• Mentor engineers on solution thinking and customer communication
• Work with leadership to continuously improve win rates and deal quality
  

Required Skills & Experience

• Experience designing and reviewing production-grade cloud architectures
  

Presales & Business

• Direct collaboration with founders and leadership
• Opportunity to shape presales standards and solution frameworks
• Exposure to complex, real-world cloud and DevOps challenges
