Job description
At CDW, we make it happen, together. Trust, connection, and commitment are at the heart of how we work together to deliver for our customers. It’s why we’re coworkers, not just employees. Coworkers who genuinely believe in supporting our customers and one another. We collectively forge our path forward with a level of commitment that speaks to who we are and where we’re headed. We’re proud to share our story and Make Amazing Happen at CDW.

This role is designed for senior architects whose primary value lies in architectural judgement, technical depth, and long‑term design integrity. As a Senior Field Solution Architect, you act as a lead architect for customer environments, shaping designs that are operationally sound, secure, and aligned to Canadian enterprise realities.

You are accountable for architectural decisions, technical quality, and ensuring solutions can be implemented, supported, and evolved over time. You work closely with sales, but your primary focus is architecture—not product pitching.

Core responsibilities

Lead end-to-end architecture across compute, storage, networking, virtualization, cloud, data protection, and security

Own architectural discovery and technical validation, identifying risks, constraints, and trade‑offs early

Design pragmatic, supportable architectures suitable for Canadian customers and regulatory expectations

Define technical scope, assumptions, and dependencies for Statements of Work

Act as an escalation point for complex or non-standard designs

Partner with sales teams to align architectural direction with customer priorities and business outcomes

Mentor fellow FSAs through reviews, whiteboarding, and design coaching

Collaborate with Principal Architects on complex, cross-domain designs and strategic initiatives

How senior FSAs succeed in this role

They lead with architecture, not products, focusing first on constraints and operational realities

They simplify complexity, avoiding over‑engineered or risky designs

They challenge assumptions early and raise risks before delivery is impacted

They design with implementation and long‑term support in mind

They are trusted escalation points for complex architectural decisions

They invest in enablement through documentation, patterns, and shared standards

They communicate clearly with architects, delivery teams, and executives

They build strong working partnerships with sales team members, ensuring technical guidance and commercial strategy are aligned

They work alongside Principal Architects to tackle the most complex and strategic design challenges

What this role is not

Not a quota‑carrying sales or product‑specialist role

Not a junior or mid‑level architecture position

Not focused on slide creation or demo‑only work

Not a “yes‑by‑default” role, technical judgement and challenge are expected

Not a hands‑off advisory role without accountability for outcomes

What success looks like

Solutions are implemented with minimal redesign or delivery surprises

Architectural risk is identified and mitigated early Other FSAs and delivery teams rely on your judgement

Architectural patterns improve and scale across engagements

Experience and background

Senior experience in architecture, consulting, or enterprise IT design roles

Deep hands‑on knowledge of modern data centre and hybrid cloud environments

Regular experience navigating ambiguity and trade‑offs

Strong written and verbal communication skills
