About the Role
Microsoft Customer & Partner Solutions accelerates customer outcomes and business growth by uniting product, engineering, marketing, sales, customer success, and partners around a common customer mission. We are looking for a Cloud Solution Architect focused on Cloud & AI Data to help enterprise customers build unified, governed, secure, and AI-ready data estates on Microsoft Azure. In this customer-facing role, you will work with business and technology leaders to connect strategic priorities with architecture decisions, delivery roadmaps, and measurable production outcomes.
Responsibilities
- Engage customer business and technology leaders to understand their data estates, AI priorities, governance needs, success measures, and business outcomes; translate these requirements into secure, scalable, and AI-ready Cloud & AI Data solutions.

- Help customers establish effective data governance practices, including data ownership, security, quality, discoverability, metadata management, compliance, and lifecycle management, aligned to their organizational and regulatory requirements.
- Improve the health and sustainability of mission-critical data workloads by addressing resiliency, security, sovereignty, performance, capacity management, operational readiness, and cost optimization.
- Partner with CSAMs, account teams, specialists, engineering teams, and delivery resources to remove technical blockers, align customer success plans with feasible delivery outcomes, contribute reusable IP, and share customer and field feedback with product teams.
