Solutions Architect Dynamics Developer

Key responsibilities

Act as Red Kite’s internal technical counterpart to the housing system supplier, providing technical assurance over proposed designs, configuration, statements of work, technical specifications and integration designs. This includes identifying risks, assumptions and gaps; ensuring alignment with Red Kite’s long-term objectives, architectural principles and Microsoft best practice architecture frameworks; and helping Red Kite retain sufficient internal understanding of key solution decisions to avoid over-reliance on supplier knowledge.

Provide clear technical advice to project governance boards so senior stakeholders understand the implications of design decisions, trade-offs, risks and costs. Maintain effective design governance, including standards, design reviews, approval of technical changes across configuration, integrations, customisations and data, and clear architectural documentation, decision records and supporting technical artefacts.

Qualifications, skills and experience

Relevant Microsoft certifications are essential or strongly desirable for this role. In particular, Microsoft Certified: Power Platform Solution Architect Expert (PL-600) is highly relevant, as it covers design decisions, configuration, integration, infrastructure, security, licensing, storage and change management. Microsoft Certified: Power Platform Developer Associate (PL-400) is also beneficial, as it covers extensibility, custom APIs, plugins, Dataverse, Power Platform CLI, Azure Functions and integration patterns, even where the postholder is not expected to act as the main developer.
