Senior Solution Architect, Professional Services - Retail

We believe in hard work, having fun, and bringing excellence to everything we do. Our product is arguably the most sophisticated in its class, but our product alone does not make heroes of our customers. Our Customer Success team does. A position on our team gives you the opportunity to take the “service” in “software-as-a-service” to a whole new level, and enjoy rapid career growth while you’re at it.

Anaplan is changing the way companies plan and this isn’t Customer Success as usual. We’re looking for a RETAIL SOLUTION ARCHITECT who delight in the most detail-oriented and challenging puzzles.
