The Lead Functional Architect at Merkle is a senior-level consulting and solution design role responsible for architecting scalable Adobe Workfront solutions that align with business objectives. You will partner with clients and stakeholders to translate business requirements into practical, scalable designs across Workfront Core, Planning, Fusion, workflows, automations, and integrations. This role is best suited for a candidate who has hands-on experience architecting, implementing, and optimizing enterprise Workfront environments. Success in this role requires strong Workfront architecture expertise, an understanding of Fusion capabilities and constraints, and the ability to lead client-facing discovery, solution design, and implementation efforts. This role is ideal for a Workfront Architect, Senior Workfront Consultant, Enterprise Workfront Administrator, or Solution Architect with demonstrated experience designing and implementing large-scale Workfront environments.

Collaborate with stakeholders to gather requirements and design optimal solutions through consulting, solution design, presenting, developing, teamwork, QA, delivery, and training.
Design, architect, and implement end-to-end scalable Workfront solutions tailored to client needs.
Lead the development of workflows, approval paths, governance models, intake processes, reporting structures, automations, and integrations to streamline project management and business operations.
Assess existing Workfront environments and develop architecture recommendations that improve scalability, governance, workflow efficiency, reporting, automation, and overall business process effectiveness.
Define and architect integrations and automations using Adobe Workfront Fusion and other connected business systems.
Lead and document technical discussions while producing comprehensive documentation, architecture diagrams, workflows, and solution designs that support implementation and long-term scalability.
Create and present architecture diagrams, solution designs, and implementation recommendations to clients and stakeholders, ensuring proposed solutions are aligned with both business objectives and Workfront platform capabilities.
Identify and report project risks, technical dependencies, and implementation challenges to the Enterprise Architect Director and PMs promptly.
Collaborate with business analysts, developers, consultants, and clients to ensure system design and integrations align with business goals.
Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior consultants and specialists.
Review and assess current workflows and Workfront environments to identify opportunities for optimization and scalability.
Oversee the integration of Workfront with other business systems and enterprise tools.
Conduct discovery workshops, solution presentations, and training sessions to ensure client teams are equipped to use Workfront effectively.
