Canada salary for Solution Architect role
Feb 18
7 Comments
I'm interested in continuing my career as a Solution Architect but would like to move to one of the big 3 cloud providers/Snowflake/any other big US tech company with an offer in Canada.
Local Canadian companies pay π₯ for such roles and my interviews stopped during the initial recruiter calls when I mentioned my salary expectations.
Roles I'm looking for are generally customer facing and entail supporting pre sales teams and are a part of the professional services org of companies.
I'm talking about Solution Architect roles in companies like AWS/ Google/ Microsoft/ Databricks/ Snowflake, etc.
What does the TC look like for such roles in Canada (Toronto area)?
Current TC: 165k CAD
YOE: 8

Now if you go post sales and can code (still within professional services), you can make some decent money. My situation is a bit unique but i was able to work post sales as a DevOps engineer for 310k TC (4yoe). Although, my circumstance is not reflective of the broader market it does give an insight into just how much companies want to pay
