The Global Contact Centre Industry Transformation

The global contact centre industry is transforming rapidly! Technologies like AI and ML are becoming the ‘go to’ solutions for creating future-ready business solutions. Gone are the days when customers had to navigate an endless maze of “press 1 for this, press 2 for that” and sit in call queues for two hours, all while being told, “your call is important to us.” Customers deserve and demand better -- and that’s why our clients trust us to transform customer experiences with the cloud-based Contact Centres of tomorrow!

The Role of a Solutions Architect at Connex One

Solutions Architects in our business live at the intersection of sales and technology. Using your technical background as a foundation, you’ll help prospective clients understand the gains and benefits that can be delivered by modern, cloud-based customer experiences. Some opportunities will be formal procurement processes, and some will be driven by "art of the possible" demo-style sessions to enthuse, excite, and engage prospective clients.

Client Range

We work with a huge range of clients, from enterprise heavyweights across retail, travel, utilities, and multinational BPOs. You will likely know of or have interacted with many of our clients.

Technology and Solution Space

At Connex One, we design, build, and manage our own suite of modern cloud-native AI-powered communication technologies. Our Athena AI omnichannel and dialler communications platform provides a single pane of glass for all users, integrating voice, live chat, email, WhatsApp, SMS, Messenger, and social media. Our AI engine ‘Athena’ is the brains behind much of our technology, from chat bots to speech analytics, real-time call transcription, speech-enabled IVR, and real-time agent coaching, among other new features.
