Job Description

Staff Solution Architect – EMEA

Honeycomb.io

• Drive technical strategy on Honeycomb's largest, most complex deals, partnering with Strategic AEs and Sales Leadership across the region. • Lead discovery, solution design, and executive conversations that connect Honeycomb's platform to real engineering and business priorities. • Own the technical win. Shape the success criteria, guide the POCs, run competitive bake-offs, and build stakeholder conviction from first call to close. • Advise engineering leaders and executives at global enterprises on AI-era observability, modern operations, and how great teams build and run software. • Turn complex customer environments into clear architectures and solution narratives that land with both developers and decision-makers. • Leverage AI tools and get efficient and creative while maintaining accuracy and reliability. Human-in-the-loop is a real thing! • Get hands-on when it matters. Instrument apps, unblock technical issues, and help customers prove outcomes in real environments. • Build things that scale: technical content, reusable demos, repeatable architectures, and bring thought leadership that makes the whole team better. • Deliver demos, workshops, and presentations that move people, not just inform them. • Work across Sales, Product, Marketing, Field Engineering, and DevRel to sharpen the go-to-market motion and improve how we show up for customers. • Bring field signals back into the company. Help shape the product direction and demo strategy. • Mentor peers and model the judgment and autonomy this role demands. Illustrate a clear path to broader leadership.

Job Requirements

  • 7+ years of pre-sales, solution architecture, or customer-facing technical experience in B2B SaaS. Ideally on strategic or enterprise accounts.
  • A track record of winning complex, high-value deals with sophisticated buying committees and multiple technical stakeholders.
  • Experience selling into developer, platform, SRE, or engineering-led organizations with the ability to earn credibility fast, with both technical depth and business fluency.
  • Executive presence and the range to tailor your message from hands-on practitioners to the C-suite.
  • Sharp solutioning skills: you whiteboard clearly, simplify complexity, and build compelling technical strategies for ambiguous, high-stakes situations.
  • Hands-on fluency across modern cloud environments, CSPs, containers, Kubernetes, distributed systems, API-driven architectures.
  • Strong working knowledge of observability, distributed tracing, and OpenTelemetry. You understand how modern teams instrument, troubleshoot, and optimize complex systems.
  • Comfort navigating code and implementation details across languages and frameworks; enough to guide instrumentation and validation work directly.
  • Strong instincts for unblocking deals, reframing challenges, and finding practical paths forward when things get ambiguous.
  • Experience owning complex POCs and evaluations, defining success criteria, managing risk, and driving disciplined outcomes.
  • A collaborative, cross-functional approach with experience influencing Product, Engineering, and GTM teams.
  • A point of view on where observability, developer tooling, and AI-assisted workflows are headed and genuine enthusiasm for helping customers modernize.
  • A mentorship and growth mindset: you share what you know, build reusable assets, and make the people around you better.
  • Familiarity with MEDDPICC or Command of the Message is a plus.
  • Willingness to travel ~20% for customer engagements, field events, and internal collaboration.
