Solutions Architect

Solutions Architect is one of a number of job titles used for someone working in IT who has no real function.

Solutions Architects wander around looking important and can often be seen in meetings although no one is quite sure why they are there.

Architect Jenga

When you take the Jenga blocks and create your own tower with them. It takes more skill than regular Jenga since everybody doesn't know where the structurally unimportant blocks are. It also takes skill to create the tower, instead of just turning the container upside down.
Harry: Wow, that looks pretty cool.

Tom: You haven't played Architect Jenga before?
