Your Role And Responsibilities

As a Solution Architect at IBM, you will design, develop, and deploy hybrid, multi-cloud, and cloud native architectures for payments transformation initiatives. You will be responsible for infrastructure, systems, communications, and data center strategies and designs. You will create high-level and low-level design deliverables, ensuring performance, availability and scalability, while also supporting sales opportunities and mentoring teams.
