ELEVI is seeking a senior DDI Architect with deep network engineering expertise and hands‑on experience delivering enterprise‑class DNS, DHCP, and IPAM solutions. The role is 75% post‑sales engineering, focused heavily on Infoblox implementations, migrations, upgrades, and tech refreshes, while also supporting EfficientIP, BlueCat, and TCPWave platforms. The remaining 25% involves pre‑sales technical support, helping drive new‑business capture through demos, discovery, and solution design.

Post‑Sales Engineering (75%)

- Execute system upgrades, re‑architecture efforts, and tech refreshes for customer DDI environments.
- Provide lifecycle engineering and architectural guidance — not day‑to‑day system administration.
- Produce high‑quality documentation, design artifacts, diagrams, and knowledge‑transfer materials.
- Ensure successful delivery through best‑practice design, testing, validation, and cutover planning.
- Serve as a trusted advisor, guiding long‑term DDI strategy and modernization.
Pre‑Sales Technical Support (25%)

- Map customer needs to ELEVI’s DDI architecture, migration, and DNS Security offerings using value‑based framing.
- Translate customer requirements into architectural recommendations, scopes of work, and value‑driven proposals.
- Partner with Account Executives to identify and shape new‑business opportunities.
- Contribute to sales and marketing collateral, solution diagrams, and technical content.
