Role Description
As Lead Solution Architect you will work customer-facing, and ensure delivery of the solution scope through defining the solution and supporting the right consultants in delivering. You will work closely both with your team and customers, as well as our Service Delivery Management Team and Leadership team. Your role is to become a highly specialized delivery resource, who’s primary responsibility is to safeguard the overall solution design, rather than building the solution directly. You will be responsible for creating overviews for complex solution that could be passed to others to define detailed specifications.

You will have a unique set of responsibilities in this role, e.g. pre-sales, training, and internal business development. Together with the Service Delivery Management Team and the Leadership team you actively participate in defining change strategies and mastering the negotiating mind-set.

Shared knowledge is the best knowledge, don’t you agree? 😊 As Lead Solution Architect your task is to stay updated on new market trends and Microsoft technologies - so you can share your new knowledge with colleagues, but also to make sure we can match our customer's requirements to technological capabilities and Microsoft´s release plans.

You will be a part of our business line Microsoft Care & Testing where our area of Solution Optimization is growing, and you will be a key resource when it comes to assisting our customers in utilizing the potentials in their ERP solution.

What we can offer
We value work-life balance and believe that happy employees equal happy customers. You will have freedom under responsibility, the opportunity to continuously develop and take on a greater responsibility if you'd like. We are always staying up-to-date with the latest techniques and Microsoft's new releases, so there's no risk you'll fall behind in the tech landscape. 🖥 You will also be a part of Solution Optimization, which is a field growing in Columbus, meaning you will have an impact on their ways of working and forming the team.
