Prospects want Staffbase to fit into their system landscape, their processes, and their way of working, and that is where deals are won or lost. As a Senior Solutions Architect, you are the technical authority behind these deals in Europe. You validate what is feasible, design the architecture, and prove it with a working showcase. Then you hand it over to our Build team so it becomes a production solution. You'll work closely with Solutions Engineers, Account Executives, and Build, and you'll have a direct impact on how we win our most complex opportunities.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
