Solutions Architect

Career Opportunity

Acro Commerce is looking for a Solutions Architect to drive architectural excellence, oversee complex e-commerce solutions, and guide our technical teams. They want a seasoned technical leader who can simplify complex systems, build confidence with clients and developers, and unlock the true potential of manufacturers and brands by identifying and addressing architectural bottlenecks.

You will also recognize when over‑engineering a solution and scale it back, and be able to walk through an architecture that crashed and burned, explaining what went wrong.

What You’ll Do

As the Solutions Architect, you’ll shape technical direction across client projects, guide teams through complexity, and help manufacturers, distributors, and brands unlock what their systems are truly capable of.

Architecture & Delivery

• Design and oversee decoupled and composable architectures connecting ERP, CMS, and commerce layers
• Provide technical oversight for solution design, architecture documentation, and implementation quality
• Review deliverables and guide developers to ensure performance, scalability, and maintainability

Sales & Discovery

• Lead technical discovery sessions, mapping client requirements to platform capabilities
• Collaborate with Sales and Project Managers to define technical scopes, estimate effort, and craft proposals
• Act as a trusted technical advisor during pre‑sales conversations

Innovation & Mentorship

• Mentor Developers and Tech Leads; raise the bar on technical design and cross‑system thinking
• Drive R&D efforts in modern architecture (APIs, microservices, AI data layers, and automation)
• Serve as a subject‑matter expert for our Production, Sales, and Marketing teams, and the top technical escalation point for business units

What You Bring

• Comfortable making architectural decisions, writing solid code, and explaining your thinking to both developers and business leaders
• Proven, hands‑on experience integrating and working with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems
• Deep experience in web architecture and integration (CMS, PIM, and e‑commerce platforms)
• Strong proficiency in PHP, React, JavaScript/jQuery, SQL, CSS3/HTML5
• Experience with Drupal, API‑first systems, and decoupled frontends
• Linux shell skills; basic server configuration understanding
• Source control experience (Git, GitHub, etc.)
• Curiosity about emerging tech, from composable architectures to AI‑driven customer experiences
• Evidence of building complex solutions you can showcase

All offers of employment with Acro Commerce are contingent on successfully completing a criminal background check.

What We Bring

• Ownership and impact: you own the technical vision and architecture while working alongside project teams who manage timelines and details; compensation is tailored to your experience, with hourly rates starting between $75 and $95 CAD
• Autonomy over your schedule: flex start times, earned days off, and real remote work; choose your work location from home office or Kelowna HQ (some client contracts require staff to be located in Canada)
• Professional development: opportunities to learn latest technology and develop delegating skills to reach your goals
• Culture: a unique and collaborative team that takes work seriously but doesn’t take itself too seriously; feel free to explore our site to get to know us
