Role

We are looking for a Senior Services Architect to join our team. This is a Hybrid (Bangalore, Mohali, or Pune) role, reporting to the Sr. Director, Solution Consulting in the Professional Services (Solution Consulting) department. As a vital technical cornerstone of the Professional Services GTM and Sales organization, you will operate in a high-impact capacity partnering directly with Service Sales Managers (SSMs) to provide deep architectural expertise during the scoping, sizing, and positioning of Zscaler Professional Services. Your primary mission is to ensure that proposed customer engagements are technically sound, accurately estimated, and perfectly aligned with customer zero-trust architectural goals and deployment best practices. This is a front-end, GTM-aligned technical role focused on de-risking and structuring complex deals before contracts are signed. Aligned with US/American enterprise customers. Work time is US time.

### What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

- Lead technical discovery sessions and deep-dive architecture workshops with enterprise customers to evaluate network architecture, security posture, application catalogs, and migration timelines
- Serve as the primary technical advisor to Service Sales Managers (SSMs), answering complex architectural questions and translating customer requirements into high-value service packages
- Architect custom Statements of Work (SOWs) for complex, multi-product deployments (including ZIA, ZPA, ZDX, and Workload/Cloud Protection) while validating technical feasibility, risk mitigation, and precise level-of-effort (LOE) estimates
- Bridge sales and delivery by facilitating seamless, fully documented handovers of technical requirements, design decisions, and scoped outcomes to post-sales implementation teams upon deal closure
- Drive scoping governance to eliminate scope bloat using standardized sizing drivers, while enabling the GTM ecosystem through product workshops, readiness gates, and deal triage office hours
### Who You Are (Success Profile)

- Thrive in ambiguity, navigating dynamic environments with confidence to build clear paths forward and transform complex challenges into structured, impactful solutions.
- Act like an owner, bringing an intrinsic bias for action and accountability while moving seamlessly between high-level strategy and detailed technical execution.
- Problem-solver at core, energized by tackling complex architectural hurdles and committed to delivering high-impact, practical solutions.
- High-trust collaborator, dedicated to collective team success and fostering a culture of open, candid feedback to build enduring trust across sales and delivery organizations.
- Customer-obsessed mindset, maintaining deep empathy for internal and external stakeholders to anchor every architectural recommendation in real-world customer success.
### What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

- Demonstrated curiosity and active exploration of AI tools, with a proven history of integrating new technologies to enhance daily workflows and augment problem-solving
