About the Role:

As a Partner Solutions Architect, you will lead the technical engagement across Constructor’s partner ecosystem, including System Integrators (SIs) and Technology / Independent Software Vendor (ISV) partners. You will work at the intersection of partnerships, product, and go-to-market, ensuring our partners are equipped to successfully position, integrate, and deliver Constructor’s platform.

This is a high-impact builder role. You will help define how Constructor works with partners technically: creating integration standards, developing enablement programs, and supporting partner-led deals.

This role focuses on scaling technical success through partners, not just direct deal support. You will serve as the technical liaison to our partners, ensuring alignment with Constructor’s product and engineering standards. You'll define how we engage technically with partners, create the playbooks, lead the solutioning, and set the standard for what a great Constructor integration looks like. This role is foundational to scaling Constructor’s partnerships motion. You will enable an entire ecosystem of partners to successfully build and deliver on our platform.
