We are seeking a Solution Architect for Network & Security in Doha, Qatar to independently own end-to-end solution design for assigned opportunities across ICT, datacentre, cloud and cybersecurity — from requirement analysis through HLD, compliance and handover to delivery. The role also leads and implements site and service delivery, driving on-site implementation and service execution for assigned projects. Solution engineers prepare the BOQ and proposal; the architect validates, reviews and approves the technical content.

• Review and sign off the compliance matrix prepared by solution engineers.

BOQ Validation, Review & Approval

• Validate BOQs prepared by solution engineers for architectural correctness — right products, quantities and licensing model.

• Approve or reject BOQs against the approved design (architects do not prepare BOQs).

OEM Coordination

• Validate designs with OEM technical teams; obtain OEM design sign-offs where required.

Presales & Delivery Support

• Present solutions to customers and respond to technical clarifications.

• Document design intent for handover and support delivery during transition.

Site Delivery Assurance

• Lead and implement site and service delivery — driving on-site implementation, transition and service execution for assigned projects.

• Arbitrate design-versus-delivery technical disputes.

Candidate Requirements

• Experience: 9+ years in ICT / Network & Security, with 2+ years independently producing HLDs in a System Integrator or OEM environment.

• Education: Bachelor’s in Engineering / Computer Science / IT.

• Mandatory certifications: CCNP Enterprise or Security (or equivalent professional-tier certification) plus one cloud associate certification (Azure / AWS).

• Technical skills: Advanced network and security architecture; working datacenter and cloud architecture; independent HLD development; BOQ validation; OEM coordination.

• Domain knowledge: Enterprise networking and security solution design; compliance mapping against RFP requirements.

• Behavioural: Independent design ownership; customer-facing confidence; collaborative with solution engineers and subject-matter experts.

Career Path

• Progression from Solution Architect to Senior Solution Architect and onward to Principal Solution Architect on the technical track.
