Solution Architect – Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O; (Finance & Operations)
with AI-Driven Finance & Supply Chain Solutions
Role Overview
We are seeking a Solution Architect who can take business requirements and rapidly convert them into working solutions across the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (F&O;) ecosystem, extended by the underlying data and AI layer. This is a fast-moving, hands-on role: the person will not just design architecture on paper, but actively build, configure, and ship ERP solutions across finance and supply chain processes.
Equally important: this person must stay ahead of the Microsoft ecosystem on their own initiative — new F&O; releases, AI capabilities (Copilot for Finance, Azure AI), and platform shifts — and proactively bring relevant innovations into Starlink and StarCent without being asked. We are not looking for someone who waits for direction; we're looking for someone who arrives with the direction already scoped out.
Key Responsibilities
- Translate business requirements directly into working solutions using Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (Finance, Supply Chain Management modules) — with a bias toward speed of solutioning, not just design documentation.
- Own end-to-end delivery of F&O; configurations, extensions, and integrations that extend or fill gaps in standard finance and supply chain processes.
- Architect how F&O; and business data flows into Microsoft Fabric, Azure Data Factory/Synapse, and how AI services (Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, Copilot for Finance) can be layered on top to unlock new use cases — forecasting, anomaly detection, intelligent reporting, and process automation.
- Continuously track the Microsoft F&O; product roadmap and emerging AI capabilities — Copilot for Finance, Azure AI, Power Platform updates relevant to F&O; — and proactively propose where these should be adopted internally, without waiting for a business ask.
- Bring industry best practices into the organization unprompted; act as the internal expert who raises the bar rather than one who waits to be pushed.
- Partner with Finance, Supply Chain, Product, Engineering, and Business stakeholders to ensure solutions are grounded in real business outcomes, not just technical elegance.
- Provide architectural guidance and hands-on support to implementation teams — this role builds, not just advises.
- Evaluate emerging Microsoft F&O; and AI technologies and lead their adoption where there's a transparent business case.
Required Qualifications & Experience (Must-Haves)
- 5+ years hands-on Solution Architecture experience within the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (F&O;) ecosystem.
Deep, hands-on expertise in:
- Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (Finance and/or Supply Chain Management modules)
- X++ development and F&O; extensions / customizations
- Lifecycle Services (LCS) and standard F&O; implementation/deployment lifecycle
- Data Management Framework / data entities for data migration and integration
- Demonstrated track record of converting business requirements into deployed F&O; solutions quickly — not just architecture diagrams.
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills; able to work directly with finance and supply chain business teams to scope requirements without heavy translation layers.
Highly Valued (Good-to-Have — a candidate strong across all three is exceptional)
- Microsoft Fabric — understanding how F&O;/business data lands, gets modeled, and becomes usable.
- Azure Data Factory / Synapse — data integration and pipeline experience.
- Azure AI Foundry / Azure OpenAI Service / Copilot for Finance — experience designing solutions that call into AI services from within finance and supply chain workflows.
A candidate who combines strong F&O; delivery skills with genuine Fabric + AI services experience is the ideal profile — this combination is rare and should be weighted heavily in evaluation. Ideal Candidate A self-directed technologist who treats staying current on the Microsoft F&O; and AI ecosystem as part of the , not an extracurricular. Someone who has already been the person in their last organization who said “we should be using this” before anyone asked — and who can prove it with a specific example, not just a claim. Combines strong hands-on F&O; solutioning with genuine curiosity about where Microsoft's AI and platform investments are heading next, and the judgment to know which of those are actually worth bringing into Starlink and StarCent.
