Is the Solution Architect - AEM role hybrid or on-site?

This role is hybrid. Candidates work on-site at the client's New Haven, CT office two to three days per week, with the remaining days remote. Exact office days are set by the hiring manager and can shift during onboarding and major project milestones. The recruiter will confirm the current cadence before you interview.

Is this a contract or full-time role?

This is a contractor engagement placed on ApTask's W-2 payroll. You receive full benefits (medical, dental, 401(k), PTO) during the engagement, timesheet-based weekly pay, and a dedicated recruiter who stays your point of contact throughout. Many of our contract engagements extend or convert to permanent; the recruiter will share the current client history during your call.

What is the compensation range for this role?

The advertised range for this Solution Architect - AEM role is $55–$70 per hour. Where you land within the band depends on validated experience, the specific stack calibration match, and — for contract engagements — the bill-rate the client has locked in for this requisition. The recruiter will discuss the exact number during your calibration call.

How quickly does the interview process move?

ApTask's benchmark on this vertical is 19 days on average from résumé submission to signed offer — driven by validated, pre-verified profiles and a client relationship where the hiring manager reviews our shortlist within 48 hours. If your profile is a fit for this role, you can expect the recruiter's first call within one business day.

About technology at ApTask

What this vertical looks like inside ApTask.

Technology roles at ApTask cover the software, cloud, data, security, and platform-engineering functions that power Fortune 500 digital operations. Our recruiters specialise in high-signal technical calibration — every candidate is validated against the specific stack, framework versions, and deployment context the client runs, not a keyword match. Our largest engagements sit inside AWS, Azure, GCP, Snowflake, Databricks, and modern data-mesh estates. Because we route through Fieldglass, Beeline, Workday VNDLY, and Coupa VMS, technology contractors placed through ApTask carry MBE diversity spend against the client's supplier program while remaining W-2 with full benefits under our payroll.

How it works

What happens after you apply.

1. Verified profile
Submit your résumé and complete the ApTask identity + skills verification. We check right-to-work, background, and technical calibration once — never resell or re-verify — so future roles surface faster.
2. Recruiter calibration call
Within one business day, the recruiter who owns this requisition reviews your profile against the client's specific stack, arrangement, and start-date requirements. You'll hear back either way — no ghosting.
3. Client interview
If your profile is a fit, we present you to the hiring team. Most clients run 2-3 interview stages: hiring-manager screen, technical panel, and final. We prep you with the exact scorecard criteria before each round.
4. Offer + onboarding
On acceptance, you onboard W-2 with ApTask (contract) or direct-hire with the client (per role type). Benefits, payroll, and timesheets run through us. Your recruiter stays your point of contact for the length of the engagement.
