Senior Sitecore Architect

Tag

Position Overview

We are looking for an experienced Senior Sitecore Architect who can bridge business requirements and technology implementations to deliver best-in-class digital experience solutions. The Senior Sitecore Architect is one of the core leadership roles across our implementations — combining the expertise of a Technical Architect, Platform Subject Matter Expert, and Engagement Leader.

This role owns the design of all functional and technical aspects of Sitecore-based solutions throughout the delivery lifecycle and provides proper hand-off and sign-off into production environments. The ideal candidate is a self-directed leader with deep Sitecore platform expertise, strong client-facing communication skills, and the ability to guide development teams through complex, large-scale implementations.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the architecture, design, and delivery of Sitecore-based digital experience solutions that bridge business and technology requirements, ensuring usability, accessibility, and performance

• Serve as the primary Sitecore subject matter expert on client engagements, providing technical leadership across all project phases — from discovery through production

• Define detailed technical specifications, solution architecture, and integration patterns in collaboration with project managers, business analysts, and QA teams

• Establish and enforce development best practices, conduct code reviews, and mentor senior and mid-level Sitecore developers

• Identify opportunities to grow client business through technology-enabled marketing strategies and deliver short-, medium-, and long-term technology roadmaps

• Develop and present innovative platform strategies to client senior leadership, including new technology adoption, platform upgrades, and operational efficiency improvements

• Support Merkle business development teams during the pre-sales process — developing technical solutions, effort estimates, and platform recommendations for proposals and RFPs

• Lead technical discussions and architecture reviews with client stakeholders, including senior leadership and technical leads

• Own the design of integrations with third-party marketing and commerce platforms including CRM, marketing automation, analytics, and personalization tools

• Provide oversight on project setup, environment configuration, production deployments, and go-live readiness

• Prepare and deliver technical documentation, architectural diagrams, and executive-level presentations throughout the engagement

Experience

• 8+ years of total .NET/C# development experience

• 6+ years of hands-on Sitecore platform experience, including complex multi-site, multi-language implementations

• 4+ years in an architect or technical lead capacity, owning solution design and leading development teams

• Demonstrated experience leading large-scale Sitecore implementations through the full project lifecycle — including scoping, estimation, timeline management, and budget accountability

• Proven experience with Sitecore platform migrations, upgrades, and re-platforming engagements

Required Technical Skills

Sitecore Platform

• Deep expertise in Sitecore Experience Platform (XP), Sitecore Experience Manager (XM), and Sitecore XM Cloud

• Proficiency with Sitecore Headless (JSS), Sitecore Experience Accelerator (SXA), and Sitecore Content Hub

• Experience with Sitecore personalization, xDB / xConnect, and campaign/goal configuration

• Sitecore certification strongly preferred (Sitecore 9+ or 10+)

Development & Architecture

• Expert-level .NET C# and ASP.NET MVC/Core development

• Strong command of HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript frameworks (React, Angular, or Vue)

• Architecture patterns: microservices, headless/decoupled CMS, composable architecture

• REST and GraphQL API design and integration; experience with SAML and SSO patterns

• Understanding of containerization and cloud-native deployment (Azure, AWS)

Integration & Ecosystem

• Integration experience with CRM and marketing platforms: Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Microsoft Dynamics, HubSpot

• Tag management experience: Google Tag Manager, Tealium, Ensighten

• Web analytics platforms: Adobe Analytics, Google Analytics 360

• Personalization and optimization: Sitecore Personalize, Optimizely, Adobe Target

• eCommerce integration experience (Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, or similar)

DevOps & Tooling

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Azure DevOps

• Source control: GitHub, Bitbucket

• Project tracking and documentation: Jira, Confluence, Smartsheet

• Database: SQL Server, MySQL

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Sitecore Content Hub (DAM/MRM/PCM) architecture experience

• Experience with Sitecore OrderCloud or composable commerce integrations

• Familiarity with Adobe Experience Manager or Drupal/Acquia for cross-platform client advisory

• BI and reporting tools: Tableau, Power BI

• Email platform experience: Oracle Responsys, Salesforce Marketing Cloud

• Decisioning platforms: Pega

• Media platforms: Google DV360

• Frontend: React, Node.js, Angular

Core Competencies

Technical Leadership Guides development teams through complex architecture decisions; sets and enforces engineering standards

Client Communication Translates technical concepts clearly for both executive stakeholders and development teams

Solution Design Owns end-to-end architecture with a focus on scalability, performance, and maintainability
