What the job involves
- As a Senior Solutions Architect, you will be the technical linchpin for Pipe’s most strategic partners

- Beyond execution, you’ll create the playbooks, tools, and processes that will allow Pipe to scale integrations across dozens of partners
- This is a foundational hire: you’ll shape how solutions engineering works at Pipe from day one
- Many of these integrations span multiple geographies, requiring you to think through localization, compliance, and scalability as you help partners go live across different markets
- This role is highly cross-functional
- You will collaborate with product, engineering, sales, and risk teams while developing the technical expertise and partner-facing skills that will set you up for long-term growth at Pipe
- Integration Architecture: Own the technical design of partner integrations, from APIs to workflows, ensuring scalability, security, and compliance
- Integration and Project Execution: Guide partners through integration with Pipe’s APIs from scoping to launch, while managing timelines, deliverables, and cross-functional coordination across multi-geo rollouts
- Technical Troubleshooting: Diagnose and resolve partner issues quickly, working with engineering teams when necessary
- Commercial and Customer Impact: Translate complex requirements into simple, actionable solutions that accelerate partner go-lives and revenue impact
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as the connective tissue between sales, product, engineering, risk, and compliance to ensure smooth launches
- Process Improvement: Create and refine documentation, solution design docs (SDDs), statements of work (SOWs), playbooks, and other reusable assets that speed up and standardize future integrations
- Partner Enablement: Build confidence with partners by delivering joint test plans, data-share templates, Postman collections, and other technical resources that make integrations smoother and more transparent
- Trusted Technical Partner: Earn credibility with senior level stakeholders by demonstrating both technical fluency and business acumen
Our take
Pipe is an alternative trading platform for start-up businesses that allows entrepreneurs and founders to take agency over their direction. Now a certified unicorn company, Pipe enables companies to sell their future recurring revenue to large institutional investors for cash.
The company was founded by entrepreneurs who had experience with the challenges founders face when financing companies. Solving a widespread problem in the start-up space, Pipe has seen great success and has been used by over 23,000 companies, facilitating hundreds of millions of dollars in loans quarterly.
Recently the company has seen great success, by partnering with GoCardless to revolutionize SME capital across the UK, a move the company is making to expand its international presence outside of the US. This pilot program has shown impressive results and points towards a future of international success for Pipe.
