The CHI Software team is not standing still. We love our job and give it one hundred percent of us! And now we need a Python Solution Architect.

**Role: **
The Solution Architect creates the complete solution to be built by a squad to solve a given business problem. The SA works with the EA, Product Owner and analysts, along with business stakeholders to clarify and shape requirements and then create a complete solution architecture. The SA typically works in just one squad to deliver a solution, although they will ‘interlock’ with other architects to ensure that dependencies are well understood and therefore the solution is assured.
