Essential Functions

About the Role - FedEx Dataworks is building the world's first Connected Intelligence Core — a platform that fuses FedEx's physical ground truth of global commerce (17M+ packages/day, $2T+ in goods annually) with partner commercial graphs and third-party signals to turn supply chain data into automated, intelligent action.  

We are looking for a Solution Architect to serve as the technical bridge between our platform capabilities and the complex needs of enterprise prospects and partners. This is not a traditional pre-sales role. You will work at the intersection of agentic AI, data products, API-driven integrations, and supply chain intelligence — translating Dataworks' platform architecture into compelling, tailored solutions that directly address customer pain points and accelerate time-to-value. As a Solution Consultant, you will own full-cycle deal execution for our enterprise SaaS and workflow orchestration suite  

The ideal candidate combines deep technical fluency with the ability to communicate architecture decisions to both engineers and C-suite executives — and thrives in an environment where the product is evolving rapidly. In this hybrid commercial and technical role, you bridge enterprise consultative selling with deep solution architecture. Once engaged with a qualified lead, you take full ownership of the opportunity — running executive discovery, architecting the integration blueprint, conducting live technical demonstrations, managing the POC, structuring commercial proposals, negotiating contracts, and closing the deal.  

  

What You'll Do  

Pre-Sale & Technical Solutioning  

  • Assume full commercial and technical ownership of opportunities immediately following qualification; manage pipeline stages from first deep-dive discovery through signed contract  
  • Lead discovery and technical solutioning sessions to define solution architecture, data flows, integration requirements, and success KPIs for enterprise prospects  
  • Own the technical narrative in sales conversations for generally available Dataworks orchestration products and commercial data products  
  • Deliver compelling, technical demonstrations of Dataworks orchestration solutions showcasing how agentic workflows support end to end Supply Chain resilience.  
  • Assist Product and Sales with early-stage alpha/beta discovery calls as new capabilities emerge from the Connected Intelligence Core  
  • Design and document proposed solution architecture including connector configurations, agent orchestration flows, MCP protocol integration points, and data exchange patterns  
  • Scope integration requirements across customer tech stacks (ERPs, WMS, TMS, and workflow platforms such as ServiceNow and SAP)  
  • Build value-based business cases (ROI models, cost avoidance, OTIF impact), author commercial proposals, navigate enterprise procurement and security reviews, and negotiate multi-year software agreements  

Platform & Data Product Expertise  

  • Develop and maintain deep expertise across the Dataworks product suite — SaaS products, agentic modules, commercial data indices, and the underlying Connected Intelligence Core platform  
  • Articulate how Dataworks' embedded AI agents shift customers from reactive dashboards to continuous, proactive intelligence and automated orchestration  
  • Explain data product constructs including signals, insights, risk scores (e.g., Dynamic Resilience Score™), and index-based commercial data offerings to both technical and non-technical audiences  
  • Stay current on emerging platform capabilities: agent-to-agent orchestration, clean room data environments, MCP-based connector protocols, and privacy-preserving data exchange methods  
  • Strong practical knowledge of RESTful APIs, webhooks, GraphQL, JSON schemas, message brokers, and event-driven architectures.  

Integration & Technical Enablement  

  • Guide prospects through API-first integration design, REST/webhook architecture, and data ingestion requirements across the Dataworks platform  
  • Evaluate and scope partner connector pre-builds needed to unlock GTM (e.g., SAP/ERP connector, ServiceNow workflow embeds, marketplace integrations via AWS/Azure/NOW)  
  • Translate technical solutioning artifacts to the post-sale FDE (Forward Deployed Engineering) and Implementation teams to ensure seamless handoff and execution  
  • Collaborate with the Commercial team to document repeatable, scalable solutioning patterns that reduce friction across the sales cycle  

Partner & Ecosystem Solutioning  

  • Support Build & Win co-build partnerships by designing joint technical architectures and IP-safe integration approaches  
  • Participate in Sell & Scale partner solutioning including bundled offering design and co-sell technical requirements  
  • Review inbound partner technical requirements and synthesize recommendations back to Product Management, Strategy, and Integrations teams  
  • Assist with enablement of Commercial team on partner-specific technical narratives and Dataworks platform capabilities  

Cross-Functional Collaboration  

  • Work closely with Product Management to flag customization and integration requirements surfaced during the sales process  
  • Partner with the Customer Success and FDE teams to ensure solution designs are both technically feasible and deliverable within agreed timelines  
  • Contribute to scalable solution documentation, integration playbooks, and technical sales assets for the broader GTM organization  
  • Travel onsite to customer and partner locations when deep discovery or hands-on technical validation is required 

Skills,Knowledge, & Abilities 

  • Strong understanding of modern API architecture: REST, GraphQL, webhooks, event-driven patterns, and data pipeline design  
  • Ability to read, evaluate, and explain HTML/CSS/JS-based solutions and data product specifications to both engineering and business audiences  
  • Familiarity with agentic AI concepts — agent-to-agent communication, orchestration layers, LLM-powered workflows, and tool-use protocols (MCP/model context protocol)  
  • Working knowledge of data exchange methods including clean room environments, data clean rooms, privacy-preserving analytics, and governed data sharing  
  • Experience with enterprise integration platforms and connectors (ServiceNow, SAP, ERP/WMS/TMS ecosystems)  
  • Ability to design and present clear solution architecture diagrams that document integration points, data flows, and system dependencies  
  • Exceptional client-facing presentation and discovery skills — able to lead executive briefings and deep-dive technical workshops with equal effectiveness  
  • Ability to translate complex technical architectures into clear value narratives tied to measurable business outcomes (ROI, cost avoidance, operational efficiency)  
  • Strong written communication for solution design documents, SOW scoping inputs, and integration specifications  
  • Comfort navigating ambiguity in a fast-moving, platform-first environment where product capabilities are actively evolving  
  • Supply chain, logistics, trade compliance, or financial risk domain experience — understanding of the operational contexts in which Dataworks products are deployed  
  • Familiarity with data monetization concepts: commercial data indices, B2B data products, signal-to-insight models  
  • Experience supporting or designing solutions on data-intensive, AI-native SaaS platforms
