D365 Solutions Architect

Role Description

We are seeking a highly experienced Solution Architect to own the end-to-end technical and functional architecture for a dual Dynamics 365 program spanning D365 Customer Engagement (CE) and D365 Finance & Operations (F&O). This role is central to the implementation of new CE and F&O instances, alongside a complex multi-source ERP data migration into the new environment. The Solution Architect will:

• Define the target-state architecture.
• Set data migration and integration strategy.
• Serve as the primary technical counterpart to our Systems Integrator (SI) partner.
• Validate designs, resolve technical disputes, and ensure the delivered solution meets enterprise standards.
• Architect the solution and hold the SI/project team accountable to build it correctly.
• Partner closely with internal project teams.

Qualifications

• Minimum 10+ years in enterprise systems architecture, with at least 5+ years specifically architecting Dynamics 365 solutions.
• Demonstrated experience architecting both D365 CE and D365 F&O.
• Prior experience leading a multi-source ERP-to-D365 data migration/consolidation.
• Track record architecting greenfield D365 implementations.
• Deep understanding of Dataverse, dual-write, Power Platform integration patterns, and D365 F&O data structures/extension models.
• Proven experience acting as the technical counterparty to a Systems Integrator.
• Strong grasp of data migration methodology.
• Experience defining integration architecture involving EDI and third-party/middleware systems.
• Ability to operate at both a hands-on design level and an executive communication level.
• Strong facilitation skills.
• Prior experience mentoring technical leads or developers.
• Experience working in a PE-backed or high-growth environment is a plus.

Requirements

• Act as the primary technical governance point: review and approve technical design documents, functional specifications, and integration designs before build begins.
• Identify and resolve architectural risks, technical debt, and design conflicts.
• Define the integration architecture across CE, F&O, EDI, and any third-party/middleware systems required for go-live.
• Partner with business and project team to translate business requirements into technical and functional design decisions.
• Set standards for security role design, environment strategy (DEV/QA/UAT/PROD), extensibility patterns, and code/configuration governance.
• Own the "build vs. configure vs. customize" decision framework.
• Lead architecture review sessions at key program milestones.
• Define the data migration validation and reconciliation approach.
• Assess feasibility and technical risk for scope changes raised mid-program.
• Document the end-state architecture, integration map, and data lineage.
• Provide technical escalation support during UAT and cutover.
• Contribute to and help shape the broader technology roadmap.
• Mentor internal Business Analysts and the Technical Lead on architectural best practices.
• Present architecture decisions, risks, and trade-offs to CIO/ELT-level stakeholders.
