The role of Technical Architect

We're looking for a Technical Architect to lead the design and delivery of enterprise-scale solutions across Microsoft Azure and Dynamics 365 F&O.

Our primary aim is to recruit a Principal-level Technical Architect, particularly someone with strong experience in Dynamics 365 FSCM and Azure integration architecture. However, we also want to hear from strong Senior Technical Architects who demonstrate the breadth, technical leadership and potential to progress into a Principal role.

This is a broad technical architecture position rather than a narrowly defined integration role. You'll combine strategic thinking with hands-on technical leadership, working with customers, delivery teams and senior stakeholders to shape end-to-end solutions across the wider Microsoft technology stack.

We're particularly interested in architects with strong experience in Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management and Azure integration architecture, while recognising that strong technical architects naturally develop different areas of depth across the Microsoft technology stack.

We continue to offer our customers onsite consultancy time if requested, so flexibility around travel and overnight stays is expected, depending on the project requirements. Onsite time is planned ahead of time, within 2-week blocks, so you know well in advance where you will be working.

We encourage those in customer-facing roles to aim to come into the office at least once a month, and alsoteam meetings and client meetings;however, you can work from Nottingham HQ or any Cubo officeregularly if you prefer, whichever suits you.
