About the Role

Role Type: Full-Time

Reporting to: Chief Operating Officer

Compensation: $110,000 to $150,000 per year

CodePath partners with some of the most technical employers in order to help shape the next generation of AI-native software engineers. As these partnerships grow in scale and sophistication, our sales conversations increasingly require deep technical credibility, clear scoping, and disciplined translation from partner needs into deliverable programs.

To support this work, we are hiring a Program Solutions Architect to serve as CodePath’s technical authority in partner-facing conversations. By expertly translating engineering leaders’ technical and organizational needs into well-scoped educational solutions, the Program Solutions Architect will ensure what we sell is feasible, scalable, and aligned with CodePath’s delivery model.

In this role, you will operate at the intersection of engineering, sales, and program delivery. You’ll partner closely with Revenue and Employer Partnerships to lead technical discovery, clarify requirements, and shape solutions that resonate with senior engineers and engineering managers. Internally, you’ll act as the primary technical liaison between Sales and Delivery—ensuring clean handoffs, realistic expectations, and minimal downstream rework.

This is not a quota-carrying role, and you will not be responsible for building curriculum or software. Instead, your impact comes from technical judgment, clear communication, and disciplined scoping—helping CodePath move faster while maintaining trust with both partners and internal teams.

Key Activities

Pre-Sales Advisory

Lead technical discovery and solution scoping for employer and higher-ed partnerships, ensuring feasibility, instructional alignment, and clean delivery handoffs
Shape program proposals and solution documentation with clear assumptions, constraints, and delivery implications
Support early-stage partner discovery, executive workshops, and flagship launches (up to ~30% travel), serving as CodePath’s technical authority in client conversations and building credibility with engineering leaders and executives

Cross-Functional Partnership

Act as the primary technical liaison between Sales and Curriculum, Product, and Delivery teams
Translate partner needs and market signals into clear internal inputs for packaging, iteration, and enablement
Develop technical sales enablement assets (talk tracks, FAQs, configuration guides) to accelerate deal cycles and delivery readiness

Influence Product and Program Roadmap

Assess technical and delivery feasibility of new partnership opportunities
Represent CodePath’s technical credibility with external stakeholders, across technical and non-technical audiences
Partner with Data and Delivery to evaluate pilot outcomes and support scalable rollout of validated solutions

Key Success Metrics

In this role, success means CodePath can pursue complex employer and higher-education partnerships with confidence and speed—without sacrificing quality or overextending delivery teams. This is a force-multiplier role: as you succeed, sales cycles shorten, delivery friction decreases, and CodePath’s technical credibility compounds over time.

You will be successful if:

Technical and program decisions are made early and clearly, reducing ambiguity during sales cycles
Engineering leaders trust CodePath’s technical rigor and view you as a credible peer
Documented, reusable approaches and configurations drive faster, more consistent deals and ensure clean translation from proposal to delivery with minimal re-scoping or escalation
Early, clear technical and instructional decisions improve handoffs from Sales to Curriculum and Delivery, minimizing surprises and feasibility or alignment escalations.
Documented best practices drive consistent scope adherence from proposal through delivery, accelerating alignment between pre-sales and delivery teams
Proven approaches, assumptions, and configurations are documented and reused—making future deals faster and more consistent

Qualifications

Required

Proven collaborator with experience partnering across Revenue, Product, Curriculum, and Delivery, and working directly with senior engineers and engineering managers in customer-facing technical roles
Strong technical foundation in computer science or software engineering, with fluency in at least one programming language and a solid understanding of modern software development practices
Demonstrated ability to lead technical discovery, clarify requirements, and scope feasible solutions without owning implementation
Ability to translate complex technical and programmatic concepts for executive, technical, and non-technical audiences
Sound judgment in evaluating feasibility, tradeoffs, and constraints—particularly in environments balancing technical rigor, delivery capacity, and business needs
Strategic connector who understands how program design, pedagogy, and business outcomes intersect
Experience advising or managing multi-stakeholder initiatives involving employers and universities

Preferred

Background in sales engineering, solutions consulting, or technical pre-sales
Experience in edtech, workforce development, or learning platforms
