At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.
The divide between business needs and technical delivery is one of the most persistent challenges in enterprise technology, where finance teams struggle to articulate requirements and engineering teams lack the business context to build truly impactful solutions. As a Senior Business Solution Architect for Finance at Lyft, you'll eliminate this gap by serving as the critical connection point between our Finance teams and our Corporate Engineering and IT (CEIT) organization. This role uniquely combines deep functional business expertise with strong technical acumen, enabling you to translate complex business needs into systemized, scalable solutions while driving AI-enabled transformation across the Finance function.
We're seeking a strategic thinker who thrives at the intersection of business and technology, possesses exceptional communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences, and is dedicated to architecting the future state of how Finance operates. You'll be the trusted advisor to both business leaders and engineering teams, ensuring our Finance organization has systems and processes that scale with our business while our engineering teams build solutions that truly move the needle. With AI fundamentally reshaping how Finance work gets done, your expertise will be critical in helping us responsibly harness these technologies to drive operational excellence. In this role, you'll reimagine Finance workflows through an AI-first lens, design business processes that balance operational excellence with technical feasibility, and champion automation that elevates teams from tactical execution to strategic impact.
If you are a candidate who has the vision of what could be, who has the ability to cultivate relationships, and has a belief in driving impact, then you may be the ideal person for this position. We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team and encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds.
