Elastic is actively seeking a Customer Architect in Costa Rica with an understanding of technology and hands-on experience in key IT domains, notably Observability, Cybersecurity, and Enterprise Search. Possessing a strong technical background, preferably with experience in cloud-based software solutions is ideal for the team's needs.

We value individuals passionate about staying at the forefront of technology trends, have a growth mindset, and are eager to learn and implement new technologies. While previous experience with Elastic solutions is not a prerequisite, an eagerness to embrace our suite of solutions and apply them effectively to solve our customers' challenges is essential. This key role involves not only driving the consumption of our Elastic solutions by aligning them with customer business objectives but also onboarding customers, securing adoption, and facilitating expansion.

As a Customer Architect, you will be the Trusted Technical Advisor, working in tandem with the customer and complementary groups like Field and Services Teams to ensure that Elastic solutions exceed customer’s expectations. Your technical expertise, eye for business, and ability to deliver value will accelerate and improve the customer experience leading to customer continued satisfaction and expansion within the elastic portfolio.

In your role, a crucial part of your responsibility is defining and communicating the technical success criteria for our customers. This involves crafting detailed Technical Success Plans tailored to the specific customer's goals and critical metrics.

The Technical Success Plans act as a roadmap, outlining the optimal consumption and deployment of Elastic solutions in the customer's environment. They detail the vital steps for implementation, highlight achievements for successful consumption or expansion, and provide an efficiency aligned with the customer’s business goals. By actioning this plan, you will be seen as the trusted advisor, guiding the customer towards achieving their desired outcomes, thereby ensuring their success and satisfaction.

From providing technical guidance and sharing standard methodologies to aligning technical objectives with the customers' business goals, your work is instrumental in facilitating smooth adoption, sustained usage, and increased consumption of our solutions. This hands-on role requires you to be proactive, with a keen understanding of our customers' technical landscape and a dedication to making their journey with Elastic solutions successful and valuable.

This role aims to ensure the customer derives significant value, eliminate technical frictions, and propel the uptake and application of Elastic solutions, with the ultimate goal of growing annual recurring revenue (ARR).

  • As a hands-on technical authority, collaborate with the Service Team to deliver personalized, frictionless solutions that meet the unique needs of each customer.
  • Develop a comprehensive understanding of the customer's business needs and translate these into technical requirements for Elastic solutions.
  • Find expansion opportunities, at which point the account team takes over to expand the subscription, striving to grow annual recurring revenue (ARR).
  • Cultivate ongoing customer relationships, ensuring that customers continue to increase their utilization of Elastic solutions, further driving ARR.
  • Continuously review and assess customer consumption of Elastic solutions, proactively suggesting upgrades and enhancements that increase value and drive further consumption.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field is highly preferred.
  • Validated experience in a similar role such as Solutions Architect, Technical Consultant, or Pre-sales Engineer.
  • Experienced with one or more Elastic solutions (Observability, Security, Enterprise Search) or the Elastic stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) is a plus.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills.
