About the Role
Rubrik Professional Services is seeking a Global Solutions Architect to be the foremost technical authority in public cloud. This individual contributor role, at the Technical Director level, will define the architectural direction for Rubrik's deployment and operation in complex cloud environments and lead strategic customer engagements. The role focuses on high-risk technical areas, including flagship accounts and pioneering architectures. Responsibilities include developing reference architectures, service offerings, and enablement materials to enhance the practice's capabilities. The primary impact is measured by the lasting improvements to the practice, rather than billable hours. Candidates should possess deep public cloud architecture expertise and the ability to quickly master new platforms. Prior Rubrik product expertise is developed on the job.
Responsibilities
- Own the global cloud architecture standard for Rubrik Professional Services, reference architectures, design patterns, guardrails, and documented anti-patterns.
- Act as the final technical escalation point for cloud architecture decisions on strategic engagements worldwide.
- Define the technical shape of our cloud service offerings: what we sell, how it is scoped, and what good delivery looks like.
- Establish Rubrik PS’s position on emerging cloud capabilities and translate them into deployment guidance before customers ask.
- Lead the hardest engagements, owning architecture and design on complex, high-visibility customer engagements globally.
- Serve as trusted advisor to customer CIO, CTO, Chief Architect, and CISO stakeholders, and defend design decisions in front of customer architecture review boards.
- Partner with Sales and Pre-Sales on strategic pursuits: technical validation, level of effort, and honest risk assessment.
- Lead briefings and multi-day design workshops on site and remotely.
- Build intellectual property that multiplies reach, including reference architectures, deployment automation, design templates, decision trees, and delivery accelerators.
- Mentor and technically develop Solutions Architects and senior consultants across all theatres.
- Define technical competency standards and enablement for cloud within Professional Services, and help set the hiring bar through technical interviews.
- Represent Rubrik Professional Services externally at conferences, customer advisory boards, and in published technical material.
- Act as the field’s most credible voice into Product Management and Engineering, backed by evidence from our largest deployments.
- Shape roadmap priorities, supportability, and cloud-native feature direction.
- Partner with Support and Customer Success on systemic technical issues before they become patterns.
- Work with PS Operations and leadership to turn field learning into better scoping models, estimates, and delivery methodology.
Requirements
- 15+ years overall experience, including 8+ years as a hands-on cloud architect at enterprise scale.
- Demonstrated ownership of architecture for multi-region, multi-account or multi-subscription cloud estates, in a large enterprise or a consulting / professional services organization.
- Expert-level AWS and Azure; GCP strongly preferred.
- Genuine depth across compute, storage, networking, identity, and encryption / key management.
- Deep understanding of enterprise data protection and cyber resilience RTO and RPO modelling, immutability, backup and recovery design, isolated and air-gapped recovery.
- Working fluency in cloud security and compliance frameworks and how they constrain design in regulated industries.
- Strong automation background: infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Bicep), scripting (Python, PowerShell), API-first integration, and CI/CD.
- A track record of influence without authority across a global, matrixed organization and multiple time zones.
- Executive-grade communication credible with a customer’s CIO and their principal engineer on the same day.
- Evidence of building reusable technical IP, not only delivering successful projects.
