Job description

Are you good at seeing the full technical picture without losing sight of the details? Do you enjoy turning complex business requirements into clear, scalable solutions? And are you just as comfortable discussing architecture with developers and clients?

Then you might be the Senior Solution Architect we are looking for at Knowit.

As our Senior Solution Architect, you will help shape scalable and future-proof architecture for our clients' digital platforms. We design and build complex web solutions for clients across many industries, and AI plays a growing part in that work. It shows up as intelligent features in the platforms we deliver and as a natural part of how our teams develop software.

You will be involved from the early stages of a project through implementation and continued development. Along the way, you will help connect business needs, user requirements and technical possibilities, making sure that our solutions work in practice and not just on paper.

The role

You will work closely with project managers, designers, UX professionals, developers, and clients. Together, you will turn requirements and ideas into digital solutions that are robust, maintainable, and ready to evolve.

In this role, AI is part of everyday work rather than a separate discipline. You will help decide when AI adds value to a solution, how it is integrated responsibly, and how our teams use AI tools without compromising quality, security or compliance.

Your responsibilities will include the following:

• Shaping the overall architecture for new and existing digital platforms
• Translating business requirements into clear technical solutions
• Making well-founded decisions about platforms, technologies and integrations
• Designing scalable and maintainable solutions across backend and frontend
• Defining how content platforms, APIs, AI services and third-party systems work together
• Assessing where AI adds value in a client solution and where a simpler approach serves the client better
• Driving the responsible use of AI-assisted development in our teams, including coding standards, guardrails and governance
• Identifying technical risks, dependencies and trade-offs early in the process, including data privacy and compliance considerations when AI is involved
• Contributing to technical estimates, workshops and client discussions
• Supporting high-quality delivery through coding standards, development practices and documentation
• Staying curious about new technologies and bringing relevant, well-evaluated ideas into our projects

And naturally, you will not be doing it alone. You will work alongside skilled colleagues across technology, design, UX and project management. We take shared responsibility for creating solutions that make sense for the client, the users, and the people who will maintain them afterwards.

Who are you?

You have a strong technical foundation and are comfortable moving between architecture, development and client dialogue.

You know that good architecture is not about choosing the most impressive technology. It is about understanding the problem, asking the right questions, and making decisions that create value over time. You approach AI the same way. You are curious and hands-on, you evaluate before you adopt, and you can explain both the potential and the limitations to a client in plain language.

You work in a structured way and can explain complex technical topics clearly. You are open about uncertainties, willing to challenge assumptions and curious enough to change your mind when a better solution appears.

What We Are Looking For

We hope you can cross of most of the following:

• At least five years of experience in web development or solution architecture, ideally from an agency or consultancy
• Hands-on experience across modern backend and frontend technologies in common languages, such as C#, TypeScript/JavaScript, HTML/CSS, Python, or similar. Experience with .NET-based and CMS systems is a plus.
• A thorough understanding of common integration patterns and experience with integrations e.g. with CRM, ERP, PIM, CMS, gateways and other third-party systems
• Practical experience with AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot or Claude, and an informed view on how they fit into a professional delivery process
• Practical experience with CI/CD across different hosting models, from managed PaaS to containers and client-operated environments, e.g. pipeline design, quality gates, supply chain security
• An understanding of the compliance and governance side of AI/GDPR/NIS2 etc., including data privacy, security and the requirements that follow from regulation such as the EU AI Act
• Experience working with project managers, designers, UX professionals and clients to connect technical architecture with business needs.
• The ability to turn complex requirements into clear architectural decisions and practical technical plans in both project and bid scenarios.
• A structured approach to coding standards, development best practices and documentation

About Knowit

At the intersection of technology, creativity, and business, we help ambitious organizations make better use of digital opportunities.

You will become part of an interdisciplinary environment where developers, architects, designers, strategists, and project managers work closely together. We believe the best solutions are created when different perspectives meet and when people are open about both what they know and what they still need to learn.

What can we offer you?

At Knowit, you will have the opportunity to work on complex digital platforms and influence their technical direction from the beginning.

• Varied client projects with meaningful technical challenges
• A real say in how we adopt AI, from client solutions to our own development practices and governance
• Close collaboration across disciplines and direct dialogue with clients
• A high degree of trust, responsibility and influence
• Skilled colleagues who share knowledge and challenge each other constructively
• Opportunities to develop your expertise and explore new technologies
• Flexibility and freedom to shape your working day
• An attractive salary and pension package
• A culture built on openness, curiosity and shared accountability

Would you like to join Knowit?

Instead of a traditional application, we would like to hear how you approach solution architecture in practice. You do not need to write at length or make it overly formal. Concrete experiences and honest reflections tell us much more than polished buzzwords.

When you apply, we would like you to answer one or more of the questions below.

• Tell us about a digital platform where you shaped or significantly changed the solution architecture. What challenge were you solving, which decisions and trade-offs did you make, and what was the outcome?
• Describe a project where you connect business needs with a complex technical landscape, such as a CMS, CRM, payment solution, APIs or other third-party systems. What was your role, and how did you arrive at an architecture that could work and evolve in practice?
• Give us an example of how you have used AI in your work, whether in a client solution or in your own development process. What worked, what did not, and how did you decide where to draw the line?

Use specific projects as context where possible and tell us what you would bring from those experiences into the role at Knowit.
