ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Solutions Architect, you are the technical owner of the customer journey from first deep‑dive through successful production deployment.

You will lead discovery, design architectures, build proof‑of‑concepts, and clearly explain how LayerZero fits into a customer’s existing stack (on‑chain, off‑chain, and AI/data systems). You’ll work closely with our FDEs and Product teams to ensure what we propose is not only compelling, but actually shippable and supportable.

This is a hands‑on, customer‑facing role - not a pure slideware or support function. You’ll be expected to whiteboard, write code for demos and POCs, and speak fluently about both Web3 primitives and modern software & architecture.

LayerZero’s Solutions Architecture team is the technical front line for our go‑to‑market motion. We partner closely with Business Development, Forward Deployed Engineering, and core Product/Protocol teams to help customers design and adopt cross‑chain architectures built on LayerZero.

We engage with a wide range of organizations - from DeFi protocols and Web3 infrastructure teams, to global banks, asset managers, and enterprises exploring blockchain and AI‑driven use cases - and act as trusted advisors on interoperability, security, and system design.
