Program Solutions Architect

Remote, United States

CodePath is reprogramming higher education to create the first generation of AI-native engineers, CTOs, and founders. 

We deliver industry-vetted courses and career support centered on the needs of first-generation and low-income students. Our students train with senior engineers, intern at top companies, and rise together to become the tech leaders of tomorrow. 

With 30,000 students and alumni from 700 colleges now working at 2,000 companies, we are reshaping the tech workforce and the industries of the future.

About the Role

Location: Remote, San Francisco/New York/Boston Preferred. Up to ~30% travel required

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

  • Familiarity with instructional design principles or technical education programs

  • Experience with RFPs/RFIs, discovery documentation, and solution assets (guides, blueprints)

 

Compensation

For this role, we’re hiring for an Individual Contributor level position at an annual salary of $110,000 to $150,000. Salary is determined based on your relevant experience and skills as evaluated through our interview process.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
