📋 Description

• Own the target-state solution architecture across D365 CE and D365 F&O, including how the two systems integrate (dual-write, Dataverse, custom integration patterns) • Design the enterprise data migration architecture across legacy source systems (Great Plains, D365 F&O, Bright Pearl, MAS 100, MAS 200), including source-to-target mapping, data cleansing rules, sequencing, and cutover strategy • 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 raised by the SI, internal team, or business stakeholders • 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, steering the program toward standard functionality where possible and justifying extensions where necessary • Lead architecture review sessions at key program milestones (design sign-off, pre-UAT, pre-cutover) • Define the data migration validation and reconciliation approach to confirm accuracy across all five legacy sources post-migration • Assess feasibility and technical risk for scope changes raised mid-program and advise PMs and leadership accordingly • Document the end-state architecture, integration map, and data lineage for long-term support handoff to the internal Technical Lead • Provide technical escalation support during UAT and cutover, working alongside the SI and Technical Lead to triage and resolve critical issues • Contribute to and help shape the broader technology roadmap as it relates to the Dynamics ecosystem, including future Power Platform, Dataverse Fabric, and AI/automation opportunities • Present architecture decisions, risks, and trade-offs to CIO/ELT-level stakeholders in clear, non-technical business terms when required

🎯 Requirements

• 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 — not one or the other — including how they integrate • Prior experience leading a multi-source ERP-to-D365 data migration/consolidation; direct exposure to legacy platforms such as Great Plains, Bright Pearl, MAS 90/100/200, or comparable mid-market ERPs is a strong plus • Track record architecting greenfield D365 implementations (not just upgrades or extensions of an existing instance) • 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 — reviewing SI design artifacts, holding SI teams accountable, and making final architectural calls • Strong grasp of data migration methodology: mapping, cleansing, sequencing, reconciliation, and cutover planning at an enterprise scale • Experience defining integration architecture involving EDI and third-party/middleware systems • Ability to operate at both a hands-on design level (data models, integration patterns) and an executive communication level (CIO/ELT presentations) • Strong facilitation skills — comfortable running architecture review and design sign-off sessions with mixed technical/business audiences • Prior experience mentoring technical leads or developers and establishing architectural governance standards • Experience working in a PE-backed or high-growth environment where program timelines and board visibility are significant is a plus

🏖️ Benefits

• Virtual U.S. position; preferred work location/time zone is Eastern (EST/ET) or Central (CST/CT). • Mentor internal Business Analysts and the Technical Lead on architectural best practices to build long-term internal capability
