• Plan incremental, unit-by-unit rollout across business units running different CRM and ERP platforms.
• Review designs and guide decisions during delivery so the build matches the architecture.
• Define an AI-augmented development approach with review standards, quality gates, and UAT.
• Lead the embedded team, including staffing recommendations, work allocation, and quality of delivery.
• Own program outcomes: scope, risks, dependencies, and stakeholder expectations.
• Build trusted relationships with client technology leaders and identify where other Allata service lines can add value.
• Mentor consultants and keep Allata leadership informed on engagement health and financials.

Requirements:

• 10+ years in software engineering and architecture, including 4+ years as a lead solution architect or equivalent.

• Experience leading architects, engineers, or analysts in a client setting.

• Experience turning ambiguous business processes into clear architecture and requirements.
• Fluent English and strong overlap with US business hours.

Nice to have:

• ERP replacement or financial-systems transformation experience (Dynamics 365 a plus).
• Experience with order-to-cash, licensing, subscription, or entitlement platforms.
• Familiarity with Salesforce, HubSpot, or Dynamics CRM.
• Multi-brand or post-acquisition environments.
• Hands-on use of AI-assisted development tools

• Self-directed, with sound decisions in ambiguous situations.

• Empathy and respect, promoting a collaborative team environment.
• Dedication to continuous learning and development, for yourself and for others.
