Solutions Architect

Snapchat pairs joyfully-rigorous engineering challenges with the autonomy to solve them, and we need a Solutions Architect to dive in. A $54,000 - $76,000 Solutions Architect role for a self-starter who wants ownership, collaboration, and a genuine path forward.

Key Responsibilities

• Reverse-engineer the deeply-curious TypeScript format Snapchat inherited and never documented
• Trace a flexible technology bug across three Rust services to the one bad line
• Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and Rust libraries
• Mentor newer junior hires on how Snapchat actually wires TypeScript together
• Translate fuzzy product wishes from Snapchat stakeholders into shippable Rust services
• Sketch MySQL sequence diagrams that make the technology flow obvious to everyone
• Shave milliseconds off the technology hot path that Snapchat users feel every click
• Carry features from whiteboard sketch to Fayetteville, AR production without dropping the baton

What You'll Bring

• A learner's pace that keeps up with shifting requirements
• A point of view on Snapchat's space, sharpened by your own reading
• A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume
• Practical Microservices skills sharpened in a remote setting
• A Snapchat mindset: scrappy today, scalable tomorrow
• Comfort being the newest person in the room and the loudest in the notes

Somewhere between a startup and an institution, Snapchat has spent years perfecting Microservices for clients all over Fayetteville, AR. The entrepreneurial pace here is real, but so is the permission to log off and recover.

Open with $54,000 - $76,000, grow your Microservices under a mentor, lean on full benefits, and flex your hours the way grown-ups should.

We re-validated this opening today; Snapchat is still on the lookout.

Seize this opportunity in Fayetteville, AR and apply before the deadline.
