Solutions Architect, Europe

Washington, DCMid LevelFull-timeBusiness DevelopmentPosted 3 days ago

The role

What you'll do

  • Solutions Architects at Cape lead engagements with our federal customers. They deeply understand the privacy and security challenges that Cape is solving and are passionate about bringing our technology to federal customers. Solutions Architects collaborate closely with business development, engineering, product, sales, and marketing to ensure we’re building the right thing and delivering it the right way to customers doing mission critical work. Solutions Architects must be high ownership, creative, solutions-oriented individuals who aren’t afraid to dive deep into complex problems.
  • Own the engagement with a new/early customer. You’ll be boots on the ground working with our customers to understand their challenges and deploy our technology.
  • These engagements will mostly take place across the EU as Cape continues to work with US federal customers across the EUCOM AOR
  • Cultivate relationships at all levels of seniority. Understand the ground-level problems we’re solving. Burn through frozen-middle bureaucracies to clear a path to success. Create and deliver executive presentations to ensure buy-in from above.
  • Work fluidly with product and engineering to ensure product direction aligns with our customers’ on-the-ground reality. You must be able to influence cross-team members to direct the appropriate resources to customer objectives.
  • In this role, you will need to demonstrate a high degree of independence and teamwork. This means you'll be empowered to make decisions and lead initiatives, but you will also know when to leverage the expertise of our engineering and product teams to ensure successful execution. We want someone who understands the difference between a good idea and a great one worth pursuing. The right person will have the judgment to know when to bet big on a concept and when to walk away, conserving resources and effort for what truly matters. You are the voice of the company at the customer, and the voice of the customer at the company

The team

The company

About Cape

Cape was founded in early 2022 by Palantir and Anduril alums with deep expertise in privacy and national security. While running Palantir’s US national security business, our CEO became passionate about privacy and security on mobile devices. Our mission is to be a force for good in global wireless. At Cape, we are not just another cellular service provider; we are the architects of a privacy-centric movement that starts with the devices in your pocket. We are building a cellular network that helps citizens, including those responsible for our nation’s security, regain control of their own data. We believe that where we are, where we go, and whom we are with are among our most personal information and should be kept private. Privacy is not something you achieve by limiting yourself or by doing less, it is a set of features to be built so you can do more. We have raised money from Andreessen Horowitz and other top-tier VCs, and are excited to grow the team.

Our Culture

We are builders, and we choose to spend our time building things that matter. Many of our people have backgrounds in Defense Tech as well as the defense and intelligence community. We build to win.

We hire excellent people, give them outsized responsibility, and trust them to execute at a high level. Everyone here has a track record of solving hard problems throughout their careers.

We believe that companies exist to build awesome things and take care of their people. Our benefits reflect that– top-tier health care, 401(k) matching, and a generous vacation policy (that we actually use).
