Duration: Initial 6-month contract with high probability of extension

Start Date: Immediate - 4 weeks

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly experienced and versatile Dynamics 365 CE Solution Architect to lead the design and implementation of an enterprise-level CRM transformation. This is a unique \"hybrid\" architect role; while you will be the technical lead for architectural decisions and stakeholder management, you must be a hands-on practitioner willing to \"get your hands dirty\" alongside our development team.

The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in Asset Management and Field Service, alongside core CRM (Sales/Service) functions.

Key Responsibilities

• Architectural Design: Lead the creation of high-level and detailed solution designs, ensuring alignment with business goals and Microsoft best practices.
• Stakeholder Management: Confidently present architectural roadmaps and project updates to C-suite and business stakeholders, translating technical concepts into business value.
• Hands-on Implementation: Actively support the development team by troubleshooting complex issues, reviewing code, and occasionally performing advanced configuration or coding when required.
• Advanced UI/UX Implementation: Lead the development of custom Power Apps Component Framework (PCF) controls to enhance the user experience, specifically utilizing third-party libraries such as AG Grid for advanced data handling and custom charting.

Technical Skills & Experience

• D365 Core: Extensive experience with Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (Sales, Service) and the Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse).
• Development Tools: Strong knowledge of C#/.NET, JavaScript/TypeScript, and the Web API.
• PCF Controls: Deep experience building and implementing PCF (Power Apps Component Framework) controls. Proficiency with AG Grid, Kendo UI, or similar high-performance grid/charting libraries is essential.
• Integrations: Experience architecting integrations between D365 and external systems (ERP, or legacy databases) using Azure Logic Apps or Service Bus.

Desired Qualities

• Problem Solver: You don't just design the solution; you stay in the trenches with the developers until it's delivered.
• Communicator: Ability to facilitate workshops, elicit requirements, and manage conflicting priorities between business and technical teams.
• Certified: Microsoft Certified: Power Platform Solution Architect Expert (PL-600) or Dynamics 365 + Power Platform Solution Architect (MB-600/700 equivalent) is highly desirable.
