We are seeking an experienced Dynamics 365 & Azure Integration Architect to support the delivery of our Matter Management transformation programme, built around Microsoft Dynamics 365, Dataverse, Power Platform, Azure Integration Services and Peppermint.

This is a hands‑on architecture role for an individual who is equally comfortable defining solution architecture as they are building and troubleshooting integration components. The successful candidate will lead the design and delivery of integrations between Dynamics 365, Dataverse, Peppermint and wider enterprise systems, ensuring solutions are secure, scalable and supportable.

Working closely with product owners, developers, data teams and third‑party suppliers, you will provide technical leadership whilst remaining actively involved in implementation.

What you will be doing:

• Define end-to-end integration architectures across Dynamics 365, Dataverse, Peppermint and enterprise applications.
• Produce solution designs, integration specifications, interface contracts and architecture documentation.
• Define integration patterns, API standards and security approaches.
• Ensure solutions align with enterprise architecture, security and operational requirements.
• Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance throughout the delivery lifecycle.

Hands-On Technical Delivery

• Design, develop and support integration solutions using Azure Integration Services.
• Build and maintain Azure Functions, Logic Apps and Service Bus‑based integrations.
• Develop Dynamics 365 plugins and custom integration components using C# and .NET.
• Create proof‑of‑concepts and technical spikes to validate architectural approaches.
• Support development teams with implementation guidance, code reviews and troubleshooting.
• Diagnose and resolve complex end-to-end integration and platform issues.

Dynamics 365 & Power Platform

• Define and govern Dataverse integration patterns and data models.
• Design solutions leveraging Power Platform capabilities, including Power Automate.
• Ensure appropriate use of Dataverse security, environment strategy and application lifecycle management.
• Work with business and technical stakeholders to translate requirements into practical solutions.

Data Integration & Migration

• Design and oversee Azure Data Factory pipelines supporting data migration and integration requirements.
• Define approaches for data transformation, incremental loading and data synchronisation.
• Support migration activities into Dynamics 365 and Dataverse.
• Ensure data quality, integrity and operational supportability across integration processes.

Governance & Collaboration

• Participate in design reviews and technical assurance activities.
• Maintain architecture artefacts and technical documentation.
• Collaborate with internal teams and third‑party suppliers to ensure successful delivery.
• Communicate technical decisions clearly to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
